# ObCallback Callback Registration Driver
The ObCallback sample driver demonstrates the use of registered callbacks for process protection. The driver registers control callbacks which are called at process creation.
## Design and Operation
The sample exercises both the [**PsSetCreateProcessNotifyRoutineEx**](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/drivers/ddi/content/ntddk/nf-ntddk-pssetcreateprocessnotifyroutine) and the [**ObRegisterCallbacks**](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/drivers/ddi/content/wdm/nf-wdm-obregistercallbacks) routines. The first example uses the **ObRegisterCallbacks** routine and a callback to restrict requested access rights during a open process action. The second example uses the **PsSetCreateProcessNotifyRoutineEx** routine to reject a process creation by examining the command line.
The following is a command line usage scenario to exercise access restriction:
```cmd
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -? (for command line help)
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -install (installs the kernel driver)
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -name notepad (specifies that the string "notepad" will be watched as a protected executable)
(now you can start up "notepad.exe")
C:\> notepad
C:\> tlist (locate the process ID of notepad.exe)
C:\> kill -f 2329 (attempt to kill off the notepad.exe with a PID of 2329)
process notepad.exe (2329) - 'Untitled - Notepad' could not be killed
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -deprotect (remove the protections on the notepad process)
C:\> kill -f 2329 (attempt to kill off the process - which will succeed)
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -uninstall (uninstall the kernel driver)
```
The following is another sample test you can run to prevent a process from being created:
```cmd
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -install (installs the kernel driver)
C:\> obcallbacktestctrl.exe -reject notepad (specifies that the string "notepad" will be watched and prevented from starting as a process)
C:\> notepad (now you can start up "notepad.exe")
Access is denied.
```
