Microsoft - unsecapp.exe

  • by 

Unsecapp is part of the system WMI provider interface structure. It’s referred to by technicians as a Sink – a callback validator that receives asynchronous callbacks directed at the WMI client.

WMI is designed to enable software developers to write scripts and programs aimed at managing and querying devices, user accounts, running programs, Windows services and other internal aspects of the OS. WMI is one of the most important infrastructure aspects for management data and operations on Windows-powered systems.

Whenever a program needs to use WMI programming, Windows will call upon unsecapp.exe to act as a conduit (Sink) – Unsecapp.exe will receive the results of the WMI queries and commands and transmit them to the program that needs them.
