Description

The Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit (EMET) is a free security toolkit developed by Microsoft that enables users to better protect their systems and data by leveraging the latest security technologies. EMET helps to protect against threats such as memory corruption vulnerabilities and malicious software by applying mitigation technologies such as Data Execution Prevention (DEP) and Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). EMET also allows users to apply additional security settings to existing applications, such as Internet Explorer and Adobe Reader, to help prevent malicious attacks. The toolkit is designed to be used by both IT professionals and home users alike, and is available for download from Microsoft's website.
