| | Safety measures for Mio applications
|
| |
The Mio environment has safety measures to avoid being the cause of damage, volunteers or involuntary, on data and privacy.
|
| | |
A .mio file cannot be vector of propagation of virus, and cannot read or write data on the computer, except on a private folder.
| |  | | | |
A .exe or .Scr application has extended rights, as well as any other application of this format. An EXE or SCR can be vector of propagation of virus. Always control using a antivirus your files EXE and SCR produced with a Mio generator before distributing them.
|
MioEngine
| |
The Mio engine is charged to extract and interpret the files from a Mio application. It is distributed at the same time as any Mio application published to the .EXE or .SCR formats.
|
| | |
MioEngine is not an ActiveX/Com object. A web page displayed in a browser have no access to the MioEngine libraries. Only a detection can be done from a web page in order to know if MioEngine is installed before opening a Mio file.
| |  | | | |
Before interpreting the content of any .Mio, .Exe or .Scr file, MioEngine compares the file header with a encrypted and hidden copy. If the file has been modified or is corrupted, it will not be interpreted by MioEngine.
| |  | | | |
Reduce rights to the .mio applications to keep them always safe.
|
Mio applications
| |
The capabilities of a Mio application depends of its format (.Mio, .Exe or .Scr).
A Mio application distributed as a .Mio file have restricted rights:
|
| | |
Access to a private key in the registry and cannot read or write anywhere else.
| |  | | | |
Access to a private folder on the hard disk to store its own data, and cannot read or write anywhere else.
| |  | | | |
No capabilities of communication with any other application.
| |  | | | |
Cannot be opened if it contains a potentially dangerous file (.OCX, .DLL, .EXE, .SCR, .REG, .BAT, etc.)
| |  | | | |
As a .Mio file is not an executable but is interpreted by MioEngine, it cannot be vector of propagation of virus.
| |  | | | |
Cannot install files or shortcuts.
