Engineered for Paranoia.
Built for Real Defense.
Ordinary Windows app lockers are easily killed via Task Manager, deleted from AppData, or bypassed in Safe Mode. PrivaGuard introduces 14 kernel-hardened security modules designed to withstand administrative intrusion, memory injection, and physical device tampering.
The Complete 14-Module Defense Matrix
Every layer is engineered natively for Windows to prevent evasion, unauthorized termination, and data leakage.
Process DACL Taskkill Immunity
Applies a custom DACL via native Windows SetKernelObjectSecurity API. Strips
PROCESS_TERMINATE (0x0001) and PROCESS_SUSPEND_RESUME rights—blocking
Admin CMD taskkill /F with "Access is denied".
Windows NT SCM Service Engine
Runs as a true Windows NT Service under NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM in Session 0 with
automatic SCM crash recovery (actions=restart/1000). Communicates via bi-directional Windows
Named Pipe IPC.
Windows Safe Mode Boot Protection
Permanently registered into SafeBoot\Minimal and SafeBoot\Network
registry branches. Even if an attacker reboots into Safe Mode to bypass protection, PrivaGuard
stays active and enforces lockouts.
50ms Config Shadow Vault
NTFS Deny DELETE permissions on config.json backed by multi-hive HMAC-SHA256 signed
shadow copies. A ReadDirectoryChangesW worker detects tampering in <1ms and
restores authentic state in <50ms.
Anti-Debugging & PE Checksum Guard
Kernel PEB BeingDebugged verification, timing delta traps, and active watchdogs
against x64dbg, Cheat Engine, and Process Hacker. In-memory bytecode hashing immediately halts
patched binaries.
App, Folder & Secret File Vault
Zero-Trust application process interceptor blocks launched targets in <0.008s before window rendering. Includes military-grade authenticated Fernet payload encryption for secret files, folders, and source code repositories.
PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 Hardening
Master passwords are protected with 100,000 rounds of PBKDF2 with 16-byte cryptographically
secure random salts. Verified with constant-time comparison (hmac.compare_digest)
to eliminate side-channel timing attacks.
Universal Master Key & Remote OTP
Unlock any locked application using your centralized master password regardless of individual app PINs. If forgotten, securely trigger a 6-digit email OTP recovery protocol with built-in rate-limiting defense.
Silent Forensic Webcam Capture
On 3 failed password attempts, PrivaGuard calls the DirectShow hardware video pipeline in under 1 second. It captures a crisp photo of the snooper silently with zero shutter sound.
Offline Alert Outbox & Sync
Even if the intruder cuts Wi-Fi or uses your laptop offline, intrusion photos and security
timestamps are secured in pending_alerts.json. The moment the device reconnects,
the background worker dispatches the evidence.
AC Charger Unplug Siren & Battery Guard
Real-time AC power line monitor triggers an ear-piercing 105dB security siren and locks the screen in 0.05s if your laptop is unplugged in a cafe. Also features 90% full battery reminder and 20% low-charge warnings.
Stealth Ghost Hotkeys & Run Dialog
Native Win32 RegisterHotKey event-driven listeners (Ctrl+Alt+P) ensure
instant workstation lockdown with 0% CPU footprint. Integrated into Windows Run Dialog
(Win+R pg / privaguard).
RSA-2048 Machine-Bound Licensing
Asymmetric digital signatures verify license authenticity offline via embedded Public RSA-2048 keys. Tokens are machine-bound using hardware UUID (HWID) and authenticated Fernet, mathematically stopping piracy.
Windows 11 Fluent Command Center
Designed around Windows 11 design tokens with dark cyber glassmorphism. Categorized into Preferences, Always-On Hardware Guardians, and Danger Zone with live camera health status pills.
Why Ordinary App Lockers Fail Under Attack
See how PrivaGuard's kernel-level architecture holds the line where standard userland app lockers crumble.
| Threat / Attack Vector | Ordinary Windows App Lockers | PrivaGuard Sentinel |
|---|---|---|
Admin CMD taskkill /F /IM ...
Attacker opens command prompt and forces process termination
|
Process Terminated Instantly | Access Denied (DACL Hook) |
| Windows Safe Mode Reboot Restarting PC with Shift+Restart into minimal diagnostic boot | Completely Bypassed (Disabled) | Protected (SafeBoot Sentinel Active) |
Manual config.json Deletion
Deleting local AppData files to wipe passwords and locks
|
Locks Wiped & Free Access | Resurrected in <50ms (Shadow Vault) |
| Password Guessing Attacks Intruder sits at laptop guessing PIN combinations | Unlimited Guesses, Zero Logs | Silent DirectShow Cam Snap + Outbox |
| Charger Unplugged in Public Cafe Opportunist snatches laptop while user visits restroom | Stolen Silently Without Alert | 105dB Siren + Instant Screen Lockdown |
| Cloud Telemetry & Data Logging Usage logs and private keys stored on remote servers | Uploads Telemetry to 3rd Party | 100% On-Device Zero-Telemetry |
| Memory Patching / Cheat Engine 1-byte hex patches applied to bypass boolean license flags | Easily Cracked in Minutes | PE Checksum & Anti-Debug Watchdog |
