Isn’t it trivial to defeat this type of AC? Grant your program SeDebugPrivelege and open a handle to the AC process. Inject away. NOOP any memory scanning routines.

That's a good point. It will be a bit harder, but not entirely impossible. Position independent code/memory layout will complicate any attempts to modify the AC.

They've usually thought of that level of the arms race.
