A Registry Protection SDK is a kernel-mode driver that filters registry calls, such as the driver component of an antivirus software package. The configuration manager, which implements the registry, allows registry filtering drivers to filter any thread’s calls to registry functions. By registering a RegistryCallback routine in the registry filter driver, it can receive notifications of each registry operation before the configuration manager processes the operation. A set of REG_XXX_KEY_INFORMATION data structures contain information about each registry operation. The RegistryCallback routine can block a registry operation. The callback routine also receives notifications when the configuration manager has finished creating or opening a registry key.
Handling registry call notifications.

To be notified of registry operations, it needs to register the RegistryCallback routine with REG_NOTIFY_CLASS which specifies the type of registry operation that the configuration manager is passing to a RegistryCallback routine, When the configuration manager calls a driver’s RegistryCallback routine, it passes a REG_NOTIFY_CLASS enumeration value to the routine. The configuration manager also passes a notification-specific structure that contains information about the notification. The RegistryCallback routine can inspect the contents of the input and output buffers that are supplied for registry operations.

Registry monitoring

Track the registry key changes

Registry Portection SDK allows you to track the registry key changes,  register these “Reg_Post_Create_Key, Reg_Post_Delete_Key, Reg_Post_Set_Value_Key, Reg_Post_Delete_Value_Key, Reg_Post_SetInformation_Key, Reg_Post_Rename_Key, Reg_Post_Create_KeyEx, Reg_Post_Restore_Key,Reg_Post_Replace_Key” notification classes. When the registry key, value or security was modified, the callback routine will be invoked with a data structure that contains information that is specific to the type of registry operation.

Registry protection

Registry Portection SDK allows you to block the registry changes by unauthorized processes,  register these “Reg_Pre_Create_Key, Reg_Pre_Delete_Key, Reg_Pre_Set_Value_Key, Reg_Pre_Delete_Value_Key, Reg_Pre_SetInformation_Key, Reg_Pre_Rename_Key, Reg_Pre_Create_KeyEx, Reg_Pre_Restore_Key, Reg_Pre_Replace_Key” notification classes. When the registry key, value or security is going to be modified, the callback routine will be invoked with a data structure that contains information that is specific to the type of registry operation, If a RegistryCallback routine returns a status value “STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED” for a pre-notification, this registry operation will be blocked and the error code will be returned.
