Why ESET use Azure Requirements

[john_White24778 1]

Hi dears ESET Admins.

 

Would you help us that why ESET use Azure Code Signing and it has many problem when users have legacy windows even legacy Win10 ( Not Updated ) !

While many other AV Vendors do not use ACS right now !

 

With Best Regards.

The /INTEGRITYCHECK linker option provides Windows kernel digital signature verification for user mode Portable Executables (PE) files. This linker option is required for anti-malware and anti-cheat scenarios to register components with the Windows Security Center.

Thank you dear @itman

But out question is how other vendors did not use ACS right now , For example latest version of Kaspersky Endpoint Security is not using Azure Code Signing ! our Question and many of our customers is " how they can continue without ACS ? "

They might be the only major AV vendor that doesn't. Avast/AVG, Sophos, Trend, Symantec, etc.. all require it.
