When I install my application, it install the com object. So user can see the COM APIs using the OLE/COM Object viewer. Using the pentest(https://pentestlab.blog/tag/inprocserver32/) they can temper the registry value at the HKLM(Which is only accessible by admin) path.
Is there any way to protect the COM API's ? How can I secure My COM APIs ?
