Microsoft has Windows Defender, its in-house alternative to CrowdStrike, but because of the 2009 agreement made to avoid a European competition investigation, had allowed multiple security providers to install software at the kernel level.

Its all the EU's fault for having the temerity to think users should be able to control their own hardware instead of us!

I'm still to see the doc where MS is forced to give ring-0, certified, boot-start to everyone.
