Hardened Anti-Reverse Engineering System (HARES)

[Kerlingen]

Unless Microsoft changes the internal workings of Windows to explicitly support this kind of TLB use for DRM purposes, I can't see any use aside from malware.

Which legit commercial DRM protector would ever need PatchGuard to be disabled and critical Windows structures protected since the very first x64 versions to be hooked? This would corrupt the complete protected media path and effectively disable secure boot. Doing that would destroy far more currently existing DRM than HARES could ever replace.
