Η Microsoft δεν θα σας επιτρέψει να εγκαταστήσετε μελλοντικές ενημερώσεις ασφαλείας μέχρι η εταιρεία ανάπτυξης του λογισμικού ασφαλείας που χρησιμοποιείτε να ορίσει ένα συγκεκριμένο κλειδί registery which certifies the compatibility of the application with Windows.
As part of the security updates for the Meltdown and Specter CPU attacks, Microsoft required all security application vendors to verify compatibility with CPU fixes and then assign a registry key to their products that certifies compatibility. Without this key, the Microsoft security update simply would not be installed.
Microsoft clarified that this new rule will apply to all future security updates. This means that you are using incompatible third-party antivirus will not be protected from future Microsoft updates.
"Customers will not receive security updates from January 2018 (or any later security updates) and will not be protected from security vulnerabilities unless their antivirus software vendor sets the following registry key," notes the σελίδα Microsoft support. (the key is attached below in .reg format, for those who need it)
During testing of patches for the two attacks, Microsoft discovered that some antiviruses performed "unsupported calls in Windows kernel memory.” So there were many who noticed BSOD errors after applying the update. To avoid this particular problem, the company announced the above regulation.
Security researcher Kevin Beaumont compiled a list of products protections from viruses that are compatible with the Microsoft CPU update and have correctly set the necessary registry key in Windows.
You can see the products that support its new requirement Microsoft from here.
However, conventional antivirus products appear to meet both requirements, and next-generation security products have confirmed compatibility.
If the security product you are using is not in the list, you can manually pass the key, which Microsoft says should be done with extreme caution.
So we will give the key and the reg file, for those who want to do it with a double click.
