Mandates approved trust anchors and issuance policies, directly preventing acceptance of unvalidated or untrusted certificates.
Correct system time is required for proper enforcement of certificate notBefore/notAfter dates and time-based revocation checks.
Out-of-bounds writes that corrupt control flow or inject shellcode are rendered non-executable by the same memory protections.
