Determining integrity level and isolation

  • Article

It may be necessary for your ActiveX control to determine the current integrity or isolation level. This can be achieved by checking the process token, as shown here:

The GetTokenInformation function gets information about an access token, if the calling process has rights to access the information.

For an example, see Searching for a SID in an access token.

To determine if a process is running in an AppContainer, use the TokenIsAppContainer value from the TOKEN_INFORMATION_CLASS enumeration.
