Shadow Defender

Shadow Defender is a Windows application for additional protection of the operating system. It is possible to deploy a special isolated container to run suspicious files. This allows you to safely examine activity for malicious functionality. The program can be used to protect regular PCs and multi-user systems.

Customization

After installation, the user needs to select files to run in safe mode. Any activity on the file side is automatically redirected to the virtual system. This provides reliable protection against any destructive actions. It also ensures that attempts to intercept personal data to go beyond the boundaries of the container are blocked.

Rollback of changes

If suspicious activity is detected, the program captures all changes made to the system and rolls them back. After completion, the system must be rebooted for the changes to be accepted. The check affects the boot sector, system registry and file system. It is possible to specify directories and files that will be periodically checked using this scheme. This will ensure reliable protection of important data. Programs of this type are also often used by specialists to study the functionality of malicious programs. It becomes possible to study a file without the risk of damaging the underlying system. At the same time, a set of tools is used to fully analyze the module and the commands sent.
