Exploring Windows UAC Bypasses: Techniques and Detection Strategies

A research article examines techniques for bypassing Windows User Account Control (UAC), analyzing the underlying primitives that enable these bypasses and identifying detection methods. The work provides both offensive insights into UAC evasion and defensive strategies for identifying such attempts.

Why it matters: Security teams and incident responders need to understand UAC bypass techniques to detect privilege escalation attempts and strengthen endpoint protections against unauthorized access.
