Microsoft Issues Fix for Windows 10 Drivers Blocked by Core Isolation
#1
Information 
Quote:Microsoft has issued guidance on how to resolve problems loading drivers in Windows 10 that are being blocked due to virtualization-based security protections.
 
If your PC has a 64-bit processor and supports Intel VT-X or AMD-v virtualization, which is available in most modern CPUs, then Windows 10 offers extra virtualization-based security features.
 
One of these features is called Core Isolation, which uses hardware virtualization to isolate critical parts of the operating system's kernel from user-mode drivers and software running on the PC. When enabled, this prevents malware or exploits from gaining access to the secure kernel to bypass security controls, inject malware, or perform other malicious behavior.
 
A subset of the Core Isolation feature is a feature called 'Memory Integrity', which protects memory from being injected with malicious code by malware or malicious attacks.
Quote:"Memory integrity is a feature of Windows that ensures code running in the Windows kernel is securely designed and trustworthy. It uses hardware virtualization and Hyper-V to protect Windows kernel mode processes from the injection and execution of malicious or unverified code. The integrity of code that runs on Windows is validated by memory integrity, making Windows resistant to attacks from malicious software."
