The Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit(EMET) is a utility that helps prevent vulnerabilities insoftware from being successfully exploited. EMET achieves this goalby using security mitigation technologies. These technologiesfunction as special protections and obstacles that an exploitauthor must defeat to exploit software vulnerabilities. Thesesecurity mitigation technologies do not guarantee thatvulnerabilities cannot be exploited. However, they work to makeexploitation as difficult as possible to perform.
EMET 4.0 and newer versions also provide a configurable SSL/TLScertificate pinning feature that is called Certificate Trust. Thisfeature is intended to detect man-in-the-middle attacks that areleveraging the public key infrastructure (PKI).
Are there restrictions as to the software that EMET canprotect?
EMET can work together with any software, regardless of when it waswritten or by whom it was written. This includes software that isdeveloped by Microsoft and software that is developed by othervendors. However, you should be aware that some software may not becompatible with EMET. For more information about compatibility, seethe “Are there any risks in using EMET?” section.
How do I use EMET to protect my software?
After you install EMET, you must configure EMET to provideprotection for a piece of software. This requires you to providethe name and location of the executable file that you want toprotect. To do this, use one of the following methods:
– Work with the Application Configuration feature of the graphicalapplication.
– Use the command prompt utility.
To use the Certificate Trust feature that is available in EMET 4.0and newer versions, you have to provide the list of the websitesthat you want to protect and certificate pinning rules that applyto those websites. To do this, you have to work with theCertificate Trust Configuration feature of the graphicalapplication. Or, you can use the new Configuration Wizard. Thisenables you to automatically configure EMET with the recommendedsettings.
Note Instructions for how to use EMET are in the user’s guide thatis installed together with the toolkit.
How can I deploy EMET across the enterprise?
The easiest way to deploy the current version of EMET across anenterprise is by using enterprise deployment and configurationtechnologies. The current versions have built-in support for GroupPolicy and System Center Configuration Manager. For moreinformation about how EMET supports these technologies, pleaserefer to the EMET user’s guide.
You can also deploy EMET by using the command prompt utility. To dothis, follow these steps:
– Install the .msi file on each destination computer. Or, put acopy of all the installed files on a network share.
– Run the command prompt utility on each destination computer toconfigure EMET.
Are there any risks in using EMET?
The security mitigation technologies that EMET uses have anapplication-compatibility risk. Some applications rely on exactlythe behavior that the mitigations block. It is important tothoroughly test EMET on all target computers by using testscenarios before you deploy EMET in a production environment. Ifyou encounter a problem that affects a specific mitigation, you canindividually enable and disable that specific mitigation. For moreinformation, refer to the EMET user’s guide.
