## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 32/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 0, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 2290, "days_push": 1718, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases, no_license
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A curated collection of links, books, papers, talks, and videos focused on Windows internals, kernel exploitation, and rootkit development. It serves as a reference list for security researchers learning Windows exploit development.

## Use cases
- learn windows kernel exploit development
- find resources on windows rootkits
- study windows internals and undocumented kernel structures
- prepare for kernel exploitation research
- find vulnerable drivers for practice

## When to choose
- you want a curated starting point for Windows kernel exploitation
- you need links to talks, papers, and tools on rootkits and Windows internals

## When to avoid
- you need a hands-on tool or framework rather than a link list
- you need resources for Linux or macOS exploitation
- you expect maintained code or releases

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, reverse-engineering, developer-tools
- domain: security, operating-systems, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: windows
- tags: exploit-development, windows-kernel, rootkits, curated-list, penetration-testing
