3rd March 2023: SyncBack Elevation article

Microsoft introduced a big change with Windows Vista regarding how administrators can exercise their administrative privileges. Before Windows Vista’s introduction, administrators would perform any task without the need to request additional authorization to do so. This meant that any application they ran would automatically inherit administrative privileges, which sometimes could prove fatal if the application was compromised (e.g. malware). This article discusses the impact of this change on SyncBack.

The most common way to have a profile start automatically is via a schedule, e.g. every day at 9am. To achieve this SyncBack leverages the Task Scheduler that is part of Windows. The first version of the scheduler was included in Windows NT 4.0 (1996) and was then called Scheduled Tasks. The second version, when it became known as the Task Scheduler, was introduced with Windows Vista (2007) and Windows Server 2008. It is this version that is used by SyncBack. This article explains the security of the Windows Task Scheduler.
