It would only ensure that the laptop user does not run software that is not approved by Google or similar, a DRM, as Trojans will continue to find ways to disguise themselves and insert themselves into authorized processes. The company would find difficult to run custom software not covered by such DRM. In time, the Web Environment Integrity API organisation would say that there are too many authorisation requests or similar and demand economic compensation from developers to be included in the authorized filter scans, at time the supposed initial objective is not accomplished, as this DRM does not ensure the laptop is not infected.
