Comments on: How to Disable and Turn Off UAC in Windows 7 http://blog.rnicusan.ro/?p=253 Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:22:48 +0200 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Andrew http://blog.rnicusan.ro/?p=253&cpage=1#comment-66 Andrew Tue, 26 Jan 2010 09:46:06 +0000 http://blog.rnicusan.ro/?p=253#comment-66 Hi, the UAC does off protection against Zero Day malware attacks as users are running with a filter access token. this means that malware is unable able to utilise administrative privileges and thus the user is more protected. However UAC is less ideal in a corporate enviroment as there is no ability to control applications a user can or cannot elevate. I recommend people review Privilege Guard from Avecto which provides a centralised policy driven approach that assigns admin rights to applications and not users.
