Which of the following conditions would prevent RUM JavaScript tags from being injected automatically?

1. Process is not blacklisted

2. Host is not running in cloud infra mode

3. Process is a Windows protected process

4. Host is on an untrusted network

The correct answer is: Process is a Windows protected process

The condition that prevents RUM JavaScript tags from being injected automatically is when the process is a Windows protected process. In the context of application monitoring, Windows protected processes are designed to restrict other applications and services from interacting with them, often for security and stability reasons. This includes limiting the ability to modify or inject code into these processes, which would include the injection of RUM JavaScript tags. As a result, even if other conditions about the host environment or the process configuration are met, the nature of the protected process itself ensures that RUM monitoring via JavaScript injection is not possible, thereby hindering effective monitoring using RUM in those scenarios.
