5. Windows Vista & IE7 Readiness Tour Goal: Reduce the potential negative impact of malicious code on system files and machine resources User Account Control Basics 1.By default, all interactive processes are launched as "standard user", even if the user is a member of the Administrators group 2.Privilege elevation cannot occur in-process. You must launch a separate process, that is configured to run elevated 3.Privilege elevation always requires user consent What does this mean for developers? –Applications should be made UAC-Aware, by providing an app manifest with a value for the requestedExecutionLevel attribute –Windows Vista does provide a number of compatibility mechanisms to enable legacy non-UAC aware apps to run (Run as administrator, App Compat tab, registry and file system data redirection, etc) 5 Run Securely User Account Control (UAC) Confident Hidden Slide – included for attendee reference purposes
