Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit 4.1 Update 1

The Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit (EMET) is a utility that helps prevent vulnerabilities in software from being successfully exploited. EMET achieves this goal by using security mitigation technologies. These technologies function as special protections and obstacles that an exploit author must defeat to exploit software vulnerabilities. These security mitigation technologies do not guarantee that vulnerabilities cannot be exploited. However, they work to make exploitation as difficult as possible to perform.The new EMET 4.0 also provides a configurable SSL/TLS certificate pinning feature that is called Certificate Trust. This feature is intended to detect man-in-the-middle attacks that are leveraging the public key infrastructure (PKI).

What's new in this version:

Minor UI and stability improvements:

Expired Certificate Trust rules are now highlighted in the user interface (UI).
Expired Certificate Trust rules no longer trigger notification.
Resolves an issue in which CTRL+A (Select All) on any table cannot be undone.
Resolves a rare issue in which an exception is thrown when you open the support link on the Help menu.

Application compatibility issues:

Enables MemProt, SimExecFlow, and CallerCheck mitigations with Google Chrome Canary Edition, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader, Apple iTunes, and other programs.
Resolves a deadlock issue that is caused by the incorrect use of missing reporting functionality in Windows XP.

Configuration and deployment improvements:

By default, enables the DeepHooks global flag as part of the Recommended Settings configuration.
Extends the expiration date for all default Certificate Trust rules to 8/1/2015.
Resolves an issue in which the GPO application configuration is parsed incorrectly. This results in AuditMode being unintentionally enabled for the configured applications.
Resolves an installer issue in which EMET_Agent cannot start when it is deployed in silent mode.
