Nice! Our first post regarding the Microsoft Enhanced Mitigation Evaluation Toolkit or EMET can be found here. Now, Microsoft has released the EMET v2!

EMET provides users with the ability to deploy security mitigation technologies to arbitrary applications.  This helps prevent vulnerabilities in those applications (especially line of business and 3rd party apps) from successfully being exploited.  By deploying these mitigation technologies on legacy products, the tool can also help customers manage risk while they are in the process of transitioning over to modern, more secure products.  In addition, it makes it easy for customers to test mitigations against any software and provide feedback on their experience to the vendor.

This version sports a brand new GUI. In addition to SEHOP (Structured Error Handling Overwrite Protection), Dynamic DEP (Dynamic Data Execution Prevention), NULL page allocation, Heap Spray Allocation, this tool adds support for Export Address Table Access Filtering and the Mandatory Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR)!
