Microsoft EMET Detect Eavesdrop Attack

Microsoft released a new version of our Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit (EMET 4.0). EMET is a free mitigation tool designed to help IT Professionals and developers prevent vulnerabilities in software from being successfully exploited.
The tool works by protecting applications via the latest security mitigation technologies built into Windows, even in cases where the developer of the application didn’t opt to do this themselves.
By doing so, it enables a wide variety of software to be made significantly more resistant to exploitation  even against zero day vulnerabilities and vulnerabilities for which an update has not yet been applied.
Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit(EMET 4.0 ) incorporates a number of new enhancements including protection against Man in the Middle attacks leveraging the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), and hardening of Return-Oriented Programming (ROP) mitigations and  also addresses known compatibility issues and is designed to work with our latest technologies such as Internet Explorer 10 and Windows 8.
