Security requirements that mandate cryptographic signature verification before granting higher process privileges.
Distinct from Elevation Utilities: Candidates were either Android-specific or Unix-specific filesystem bits; this is PKI-based elevation.

gsudo is a command-line utility for Windows that elevates any command with administrator privileges directly from the current console window. It functions as a sudo-style tool, detecting the active shell environment—whether CMD, PowerShell, WSL, or Bash—and running the elevated command natively within that shell without spawning a new window. The tool preserves full console features including colors, keyboard input, auto-completion, and I/O redirection during elevated execution. A key differentiator is gsudo's credential caching system, which stores UAC-approved tokens in a background daemon
Loads the user's PowerShell profile in elevated sessions per command or permanently via configuration.
Harden-Windows-Security is a security hardening tool and framework designed to reduce the attack surface of the Windows operating system through policy enforcement. It provides a collection of security presets and templates to implement official hardening standards across multiple devices. The project distinguishes itself through a comprehensive execution control system, featuring a manager for Windows Application Control and a kernel protection suite. It implements strict trust models, including kernel-mode driver whitelisting, signed policy implementation on the EFI partition, and code inte
Requires public key infrastructure signature validation before allowing an application to elevate its privileges.
