Yes, the Process Guard may not work as designed when other security solutions are enabled and protect the LSASS process. This can result in failure to obtain a process handle to access memory for LSASS processes, as other security products attempt to perform a similar action. The following is a list of features and products where this behavior can occur:

  • Windows Local Security Authority (LSA) protection feature, which runs LSASS as Protected Process Light (PPL).

  • Credential Guard

  • Any other security products protecting LSASS processes.

To confirm that Process Guard is working as expected, note the plugin_state field in the Process Guard SysInfo JSON data in the How to verify if the Process Guard installation succeeded question.
