When Microsoft announced the operating system Windows 10 S, its representatives sounded very bold statements about the security of the new platform.

The impossibility of hacking Windows 10 S was reported yet again, especially after the attack of the WannaCry virus. However, experts ZDNet, together with security researcher Matthew Haikiy, managed to prove the opposite.

The result of their joint activities was the hacking of Windows 10 S in just three hours. This is the time it took specialists to bypass all of Microsoft's security mechanisms.

Heikiy and ZDNet team were quite surprised that it was so easy to hack Windows 10 S. You could get to OS using Word macros.

Heyky used a malicious Word document containing certain macros. They allowed him to inject DLL libraries and circumvent the store's restrictions by embedding the code in the existing authorized processes of the operating system. In this case, Word was started with administrator rights through the Task Manager.

As a result, crackers were able to access the system with administrator rights. They installed in Windows 10 S software Metapoilt and were able to remotely do with the system all that the soul wants.
