Description

Shark.sys is the kernel-mode driver component of the Shark project (https://github.com/9176324/Shark). Once loaded, it locates and neutralizes Windows PatchGuard (Kernel Patch Protection) in real time, disabling the kernel’s integrity checks on Windows 7 and later without requiring a system restart.
