No. Unlike patches, preEmpt does not permanently change code within an application or operating system. preEmpt makes temporary changes to the system which can be selectively disabled as required by your environment. For example, you may have a development group who require the use of a potentially vulnerable function of the Windows operating system. With preEmpt, a user may disable protection for that vulnerable function individually.
