Know the boundary

Security limitations, stated plainly.

Lexyte narrows a specific risk. It does not make a computer or person invulnerable.

01

What Lexyte is designed to do

Detect recognized remote-control applications through multiple identity signals, stop prohibited recognized processes and services, apply executable-specific outbound firewall blocks, lock down selected Windows remote-access features, and notify the local user.

02

What it cannot guarantee

It cannot identify every new or private remote-control tool; stop malware with kernel or administrator control; prevent physical access; secure another device; reverse a completed bank transfer; or stop an owner or local administrator who deliberately removes controls.

03

Definitions have limits

Signatures, metadata, services, paths, packages, hashes, and supporting network signals can change. Signed updates reduce—but do not eliminate—false negatives and false positives. Network domains, filenames, IP addresses, ports, and hashes are never used as the sole general basis for blocking.

04

Windows administrator boundary

A determined local administrator ultimately controls the PC and can remove services, firewall rules, policies, files, or the operating system. Lexyte adds friction, verification, restoration, and visibility; it is not a tamper-proof hardware boundary.

05

Use layered protection

Keep Windows, browsers, and antivirus updated; use unique passwords and multifactor authentication; question urgency; call organizations back through known numbers; and teach family members never to give remote control to an unexpected caller.
