Hard Configurator 7.0.0.0

Hard Configurator Overview

This program is a graphical user interface for advanced users to manage Software Restriction Policies (SRP) and harden Windows Home editions from Vista up.

You can configure Windows built-in security to harden the system. When you close it, it closes all its processes. The real-time protection comes from the reconfigured Windows settings.

It can be seen as a Medium Integrity Level smart default-deny setup based on SRP + Application Reputation Service (forced SmartScreen) + Windows hardening settings (restricting vulnerable features).
