This repository, also known as HardeningKitty, is a comprehensive Windows hardening checklist for personal and enterprise environments. It translates security benchmarks (e.g., CIS, Microsoft Security Baselines) into actionable Group Policy and registry recommendations. Though designed primarily for Windows 10, it includes workaround modes such as “HailMary” for Windows Home users lacking the Group Policy Editor.

...It is aimed primarily at defenders, incident responders, and security researchers who need a consolidated reference to understand common bypass vectors and to validate detection logic. The repository emphasizes defensive use—helping blue teams craft allow-list policies, create detection rules, and test policy hardening in isolated lab environments—rather than offensive exploitation.
