Use DirectDraw with caution in environments that require high security.

DirectDraw exists to enable high-performance multimedia applications. It does this by providing applications with the most direct path possible to the 2-D graphics hardware on a system.

DirectDraw applications can take control of the screen by putting themselves into full-screen exclusive mode. As long as the application remains open it can retain complete control of the entire display.

You should always use secure coding techniques while working with DirectDraw.
