Execute Disable Bit Capability

This is an Intel hardware-based security feature that can help reduce system exposure to
viruses and malicious code. It allows the processor to classify areas in memory where
application code can or cannot execute. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in
the buffer, the processor disables its code execution, preventing damage and worm
propagation. To use Execute Disable Bit you must have a PC or server with a processor with
Execute Disable Bit capability and a supporting operating system.
