Microsoft's answer is the Windows Endpoint Security Platform (WESP). It's undocumented, but it already ships in Windows Insider builds.
What we found:

• EspFilterPort: the filter communication port it uses to reach user mode
• espclient.dll: 120 Esp* exports for rules, filters and event queues

Everyone knows Driver Signature Enforcement.... 🙃
The problem is: Attackers can load any signed driver and abuse its functionality. For example, the process hacker driver can be abused to dump the memory of lsass.exe.
