Data corruption has become something very common over the last few years. To prevent this, Microsoft has introduced Kernel Data Protection. This is a new platform security technology for preventing the several data corruption ways used by cybercriminals.

Data corruption refers to the mistakes that could occur while the user is reading, processing information, or writing. This issue has become one of the most common computer errors that could have several consequences like going from something simple like minor data loss to severe system crashes. This means that if the user tries to open a corrupted file, it an error message will appear stating that the chosen file could not be opened. If your file was important you can try to recover it using an Outlook repair tool.

Kernel Data Protection is a set of APIs (application programming interfaces) that prevents attacks through its ability to mark some kernel memory as read-only. This has several valuable applications for third-party drivers, security products and inbox components. KDP also offers different kinds of benefits which includes: an incentive to improve virtualization-based security, Reliability Improvements where it lenses the burden on attestation components which would not verify write-protected data, and Performance Improvements where it would make it easier the diagnose of memory corruption bugs.

It is amazing to see that even when Microsoft is a tech giant, it cares about the issues that could emerge to its users. The data corruption issue is something that through the years it is more common to occur causing troubles with the software. Individuals need to be prepared to fight data corruption.
