A. THE BUG/ISSUE (Varies from issue to issue)
Can U reproduce the problem & if so how reliably?:
Yes, Every time. There are many ways to reproduce this issue. However, I have taken in consideration a method that might (better) elaborate the issue using “Paranoid Mode”.
If U can, exact steps to reproduce. If not, exactly what U did & what happened:
1: Activate “Paranoid Mode” using, for example, the main interface window. Although not extremely important – Please, make sure you do not have any HIPS rules.
2: You will notice a lot of alerts. Just allow one alert of an application, for example a browser such as Google Chrome, that uses many rules from one access right-- such as “Protected Registry Keys”. Do not allow any other alerts.
3: While alerts are being shown, go to “Advanced Settings” > “Security Settings” > “HIPS” > “HIPS Rules”.
4: Edit the application that you allowed one alert. Right-click > Edit > Change “Protected Registry Keys” to “Allow”.
5: Save settings by clicking on “OK”.
6: You’ve allowed access to “Protected Registry Keys”. However, these alerts did not go away.
One or two sentences explaining what actually happened:
As you have noticed already, you can make CIS remember these settings one-by-one by choosing “Remember by answer” and by choosing “Allow”.
The rules that poped-up should have been remembered because you edited the access right in “HIPS Rules”. However, you will notice that alerts overwrite your previous settings by adding one-by-one rules even though you already allowed “full access”.
If a software compatibility problem have you tried the conflict FAQ?:
N/A.
Any software except CIS/OS involved? If so - name, & exact version:
N/A.
Any other information, eg your guess at the cause, how U tried to fix it etc:
If you select not to remember the answer on alerts you will notice that HIPS rules are being followed.
A video showing how to replicate this is attached to this post.
