EDRChoker: Choking The Telemetry Stream to Bypass Defenses

EDRChoker is a tool that bypasses Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) by leveraging Policy-based Quality of Service (QoS) to throttle an agent’s bandwidth to 8 bits per second. By operating at the pacer.sys layer, this technique forces the EDR agent to time out and lose its connection to the server, effectively disabling its monitoring capabilities.
