Details
The Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit (EMET) is a free tool, designed to help IT Professionals and users block attackers from gaining access to their systems through common attacks. EMET helps raise the bar against attackers gaining access to computer systems. EMET anticipates the most common actions and techniques adversaries might use in compromising a computer, and helps protect by diverting, terminating, blocking, and invalidating those actions and techniques. EMET helps protect your computer systems even before new and undiscovered threats are formally addressed by security updates and antimalware software. EMET benefits enterprises and all computer users by helping to protect against security threats and breaches that can disrupt businesses and daily lives.

EMET includes several mitigation technologies aimed at disrupting many of the current exploit techniques. EMET is designed to help prevent hackers from gaining access to your system. It also provides a configurable SSL/TLS certificate pinning feature, called Certificate Trust, aimed at detecting Man in the Middle attacks leveraging the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). More information about EMET available here.
