On June 23, September 15, Windows 7 XP is very secure when running Office 2003 (Virtual Machine) and Office 2007 (local, it can damage the running of malware and interrupt many hacker tools. This is actually an unexpected benefit, but this benefit is certainly welcome.
No computer system is completely secure. Even the most secure system is vulnerable to security issues, such as security vulnerabilities in operating system code. That is to say, Windows 7 is safer than its previous Windows operating system.
You may not have heard that when a security vulnerability is exposed, Windows 7 should be carefully reviewed like OS X. Microsoft recently discovered a security vulnerability in the Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and Windows 7 candidate releases. This security vulnerability in Windows SMB (Server Message Block) 2 has not been exploited by hackers, but Microsoft warned. Hackers who successfully exploit this security vulnerability have full control over users' computers. Most attempts to exploit this vulnerability will cause the affected computer to stop responding and restart.
Microsoft has released Measures to bypass this security vulnerability. Microsoft said that Windows 7 RTM and Windows Server 2008 R2 have fixed this security vulnerability. Some of Microsoft's best security features in Windows 7 are almost unintentional and have not been widely publicized.
Paul Royal of PureWire, a new report in the SC magazine, says Windows 7 is by far the safest Windows operating system. He said that it is difficult for many attackers to find attack routes, such as social engineering conspiracy.
Windows 7 security is primarily due to the operating system's patch line for injecting malicious code into memory. In addition, Windows 7 XP may cause more headaches for attackers. The XP mode is implemented using hardware virtualization extension. The commonly used hacker tool rootkits also relies on hardware virtualization and a special permission level called VMX root mode. Because Windows 7 is now using hardware virtualization, hackers attempt to use hardware virtualization fails. Therefore, a common hacker rootkit tool "Blue Pill" cannot run correctly in Windows 7. In addition, Windows 7 XP can disrupt the running of many malware.
