Depending on the Delphi version some or all flags are active by default for new projects.

For 64 bit exes DEP is available by default at least since Delphi XE3.
The miaa.exe is build with Delphi or C++Builder, but due to the lack of any security settings and since its detail information still show version 1.0.0.0, it seems to me that its a pretty old version of Delphi or C++Builder and InstallAware doesn't care much about security and correct versioning of their own program(s).
