RE: Are bots about to bring down your business?
It's a great shame that Microsoft's Task Manager is so ineffectual when it comes to condoning unidentified processes allowing them to load and execute without so much as murmur of protest.

It would be a massive boon to all of us if it simply wasn't possible for any code to load and execute without it being forced to reveal and fully identify itself.

That would leave the ill intentioned with the single option of burrowing their code into something legitimate and there are simple hashing techniques to prevent that.

So don't stop buying Microsoft, make them beef up Task Manager.
