ComponentDescription
User
-

User performs operation requiring privilege

-		 -

If the operation changes the file system or registry, Virtualization is called. All other operations call ShellExecute.

-
-

ShellExecute

-		 -

ShellExecute calls CreateProcess. ShellExecute looks for the ERROR_ELEVATION_REQUIRED error from CreateProcess. If it receives the error, ShellExecute calls the Application Information service to attempt to perform the requested task with the elevated prompt.

-
-

CreateProcess

-		 -

If the application requires elevation, CreateProcess rejects the call with ERROR_ELEVATION_REQUIRED.

-
System
-

Application Information service

-		 -

A system service that helps start apps that require one or more elevated privileges or user rights to run, such as local administrative tasks, and apps that require higher integrity levels. The Application Information service helps start such apps by creating a new process for the application with an administrative user's full access token when elevation is required and (depending on Group Policy) consent is given by the user to do so.

Elevating an ActiveX install

-		 -

If ActiveX is not installed, the system checks the UAC slider level. If ActiveX is installed, the User Account Control: Switch to the secure desktop when prompting for elevation Group Policy setting is checked.

-
-

Check UAC slider level

-		 -

UAC has a slider to select from four levels of notification.

Secure desktop enabled

-		 -

The User Account Control: Switch to the secure desktop when prompting for elevation policy setting is checked:

-
    -
  • -

    If the secure desktop is enabled, all elevation requests go to the secure desktop regardless of prompt behavior policy settings for administrators and standard users.

    -
    • -
  • -

    If the secure desktop is not enabled, all elevation requests go to the interactive user's desktop, and the per-user settings for administrators and standard users are used.

    -
    • -
-
-

CreateProcess

-		 -

CreateProcess calls AppCompat, Fusion, and Installer detection to assess if the app requires elevation. The file is then inspected to determine its requested execution level, which is stored in the application manifest for the file. CreateProcess fails if the requested execution level specified in the manifest does not match the access token and returns an error (ERROR_ELEVATION_REQUIRED) to ShellExecute.

-
-

AppCompat

-		 -

The AppCompat database stores information in the application compatibility fix entries for an application.

-
-

Fusion

-		 -

The Fusion database stores information from application manifests that describe the applications. The manifest schema is updated to add a new requested execution level field.

-
-

Installer detection

-		 -

Installer detection detects setup files, which helps prevent installations from being run without the user's knowledge and consent.

-
Kernel
-

Virtualization

-		 -

Virtualization technology ensures that non-compliant apps do not silently fail to run or fail in a way that the cause cannot be determined. UAC also provides file and registry virtualization and logging for applications that write to protected areas.

-
-

File system and registry

-		 -

The per-user file and registry virtualization redirects per-computer registry and file write requests to equivalent per-user locations. Read requests are redirected to the virtualized per-user location first and to the per-computer location second.

      Enterprise Cloud ResourcesWith proxy: contoso.sharepoint.com,contoso.internalproxy1.com|
      contoso.visualstudio.com,contoso.internalproxy2.com

      Without proxy: contoso.sharepoint.com|contoso.visualstudio.com

      		Specify the cloud resources to be treated as corporate and protected by WIP.

      For each cloud resource, you may also optionally specify a proxy server from your Internal proxy servers list to route traffic for this cloud resource. Be aware that all traffic routed through your Internal proxy servers is considered enterprise.

      If you have multiple resources, you must separate them using the "|" delimiter. If you don't use proxy servers, you must also include the "," delimiter just before the "|". For example: URL <,proxy>|URL <,proxy>.

      Important
      In some cases, such as when an app connects directly to a cloud resource through an IP address, Windows can't tell whether it's attempting to connect to an enterprise cloud resource or to a personal site. In this case, Windows blocks the connection by default. To stop Windows from automatically blocking these connections, you can add the /*AppCompat*/ string to the setting. For example: URL <,proxy>|URL <,proxy>|/*AppCompat*/.

      Enterprise Network Domain Names (Required)corp.contoso.com,region.contoso.comSpecify the DNS suffixes used in your environment. All traffic to the fully-qualified domains appearing in this list will be protected.

      This setting works with the IP ranges settings to detect whether a network endpoint is enterprise or personal on private networks.

      If you have multiple resources, you must separate them using the "," delimiter.

      Proxy serversproxy.contoso.com:80;proxy2.contoso.com:443Specify the proxy servers your devices will go through to reach your cloud resources. Using this server type indicates that the cloud resources you're connecting to are enterprise resources.

      This list shouldn't include any servers listed in your Internal proxy servers list. Internal proxy servers must be used only for WIP-protected (enterprise) traffic.

      If you have multiple resources, you must separate them using the ";" delimiter.
      Internal proxy serverscontoso.internalproxy1.com;contoso.internalproxy2.comSpecify the internal proxy servers your devices will go through to reach your cloud resources. Using this server type indicates that the cloud resources you're connecting to are enterprise resources.

      LimitationHow it appearsWorkaround
      Your enterprise data on USB drives might be tied to the device it was protected on, based on your Azure RMS configuration.If you’re using Azure RMS: Authenticated users can open enterprise data on USB drives, on computers running Windows 10, version 1703.

      If you’re not using Azure RMS: Data in the new location remains encrypted, but becomes inaccessible on other devices and for other users. For example, the file won't open or the file opens, but doesn't contain readable text.      		Share files with fellow employees through enterprise file servers or enterprise cloud locations. If data must be shared via USB, employees can decrypt protected files, but it will be audited.

      We strongly recommend educating employees about how to limit or eliminate the need for this decryption.
      Direct Access is incompatible with WIP.Direct Access might experience problems with how WIP enforces app behavior and data movement because of how WIP determines what is and isn’t a corporate network resource.We recommend that you use VPN for client access to your intranet resources.

      Note
      VPN is optional and isn’t required by WIP.
      NetworkIsolation Group Policy setting takes precedence over MDM Policy settings.The NetworkIsolation Group Policy setting can configure network settings that can also be configured by using MDM. WIP relies on these policies being correctly configured.If you use both Group Policy and MDM to configure your NetworkIsolation settings, you must make sure that those same settings are deployed to your organization using both Group Policy and MDM.
      Cortana can potentially allow data leakage if it’s on the allowed apps list.If Cortana is on the allowed list, some files might become unexpectedly encrypted after an employee performs a search using Cortana. Your employees will still be able to use Cortana to search and provide results on enterprise documents and locations, but results might be sent to Microsoft.We don’t recommend adding Cortana to your allowed apps list. However, if you wish to use Cortana and don't mind whether the results potentially go to Microsoft, you can make Cortana an Exempt app.
      WIP is designed for use by a single user per device.A secondary user on a device might experience app compatibility issues when unenlightened apps start to automatically encrypt for all users. Additionally, only the initial, enrolled user’s content can be revoked during the unenrollment process.We recommend only having one user per managed device.
      Installers copied from an enterprise network file share might not work properly.An app might fail to properly install because it can’t read a necessary configuration or data file, such as a .cab or .xml file needed for installation, which was protected by the copy action.To fix this, you can: -
        -
      • Start the installer directly from the file share.

        -OR-

        • -
      • Decrypt the locally copied files needed by the installer.

        -OR-

        • -
      • Mark the file share with the installation media as “personal”. To do this, you’ll need to set the Enterprise IP ranges as Authoritative and then exclude the IP address of the file server, or you’ll need to put the file server on the Enterprise Proxy Server list.
        • -
      Changing your primary Corporate Identity isn’t supported.You might experience various instabilities, including but not limited to network and file access failures, and potentially granting incorrect access.Turn off WIP for all devices before changing the primary Corporate Identity (first entry in the list), restarting, and finally redeploying.
      Redirected folders with Client-Side Caching are not compatible with WIP.Apps might encounter access errors while attempting to read a cached, offline file.Migrate to use another file synchronization method, such as Work Folders or OneDrive for Business.

      Note
      For more info about Work Folders and Offline Files, see the blog, Work Folders and Offline Files support for Windows Information Protection. If you're having trouble opening files offline while using Offline Files and WIP, see the support article, Can't open files offline when you use Offline Files and Windows Information Protection.
      An unmanaged device can use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to connect to a WIP-managed device.

      Data copied from the WIP-managed device is marked as Work.

      Data copied to the WIP-managed device is not marked as Work.

      Local Work data copied to the WIP-managed device remains Work data.

      Work data that is copied between two apps in the same session remains data.

      		Disable RDP to prevent access because there is no way to restrict access to only devices managed by WIP. RDP is disabled by default.
      You can't upload an enterprise file to a personal location using Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer.A message appears stating that the content is marked as Work and the user isn't given an option to override to Personal.Open File Explorer and change the file ownership to Personal before you upload.
      ActiveX controls should be used with caution.Webpages that use ActiveX controls can potentially communicate with other outside processes that aren’t protected by using WIP.We recommend that you switch to using Microsoft Edge, the more secure and safer browser that prevents the use of ActiveX controls. We also recommend that you limit the usage of Internet Explorer 11 to only those line-of-business apps that require legacy technology.

      For more info, see Out-of-date ActiveX control blocking.
      Resilient File System (ReFS) isn't currently supported with WIP.Trying to save or transfer WIP files to ReFS will fail.Format drive for NTFS, or use a different drive.
      WIP isn’t turned on if any of the following folders have the MakeFolderAvailableOfflineDisabled option set to False: -

Error code 0x807c0008 will result if WIP is deployed by using Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.Don’t set the MakeFolderAvailableOfflineDisabled option to False for any of the specified folders. You can configure this parameter, as described here.

      If you currently use redirected folders, we recommend that you migrate to a file synchronization solution that supports WIP, such as Work Folders or OneDrive for Business. Additionally, if you apply redirected folders after WIP is already in place, you might be unable to open your files offline. For more info about these potential access errors, see Can't open files offline when you use Offline Files and Windows Information Protection. -
      Only enlightened apps can be managed without device enrollment - If a user enrolls a device for Mobile Application Management (MAM) without device enrollment, only enlightened apps will be managed. This is by design to prevent personal files from being unintentionally encrypted by unenlighted apps. Unenlighted apps that need to access work using MAM need to be re-compiled as LOB apps or managed by using MDM with device enrollment.If all apps need to be managed, enroll the device for MDM. -
      By design, files in the Windows directory (%windir% or C:/Windows) cannot be encrypted because they need to be accessed by any user. If a file in the Windows directory gets encrypted by one user, other users can't access it.
      		Any attempt to encrypt a file in the Windows directory will return a file access denied error. But if you copy or drag and drop an encrypted file to the Windows directory, it will retain encryption to honor the intent of the owner. - If you need to save an encrypted file in the Windows directory, create and encrypt the file in a different directory and copy it. -
      OneNote notebooks on OneDrive for Business must be properly configured to work with WIP.OneNote might encounter errors syncing a OneDrive for Business notebook and suggest changing the file ownership to Personal. Attempting to view the notebook in OneNote Online in the browser will show an error and unable to view it."OneNote notebooks that are newly copied into the OneDrive for Business folder from File Explorer should get fixed automatically. To do this, follow these steps: -1. Close the notebook in OneNote. -2. Move the notebook folder via File Explorer out of the OneDrive for Business folder to another location, such as the Desktop. -3. Copy the notebook folder and Paste it back into the OneDrive for Business folder. - -Wait a few minutes to allow OneDrive to finish syncing & upgrading the notebook, and the folder should automatically convert to an Internet Shortcut. Opening the shortcut will open the notebook in the browser, which can then be opened in the OneNote client by using the “Open in app” button.
      Microsoft Office Outlook offline data files (PST and OST files) are not marked as Work files, and are therefore not protected. - If Microsoft Office Outlook is set to work in cached mode (default setting), or if some emails are stored in a local PST file, the data is unprotected. - It is recommended to use Microsoft Office Outlook in Online mode, or to use encryption to protect OST and PST files manually. -

        UEFI 2.3.1 or later firmware with Secure Boot enabled

        Required to support UEFI Secure Boot.

        -

        UEFI Secure Boot ensures that the device boots only authorized code.

        -

        Additionally, Boot Integrity (Platform Secure Boot) must be supported following the requirements in Hardware Compatibility Specification for Systems for Windows 10 under the subsection: “System.Fundamentals.Firmware.CS.UEFISecureBoot.ConnectedStandby”

        Virtualization extensions, such as Intel VT-x, AMD-V, and SLAT must be enabled

        Required to support virtualization-based security.

        -
        -Note

        Device Guard can be enabled without using virtualization-based security.

        -
        -
        - -

        X64 processor

        Required to support virtualization-based security that uses Windows Hypervisor. Hyper-V is supported only on x64 processor (and not on x86).

        -

        Direct Memory Access (DMA) protection can be enabled to provide additional memory protection but requires processors to include DMA protection technologies.

        IOMMU, such as Intel VT-d, AMD-Vi

        Support for the IOMMU in Windows 10 enhances system resiliency against DMA attacks.

Unfortunately, this feature can let employees continue to an unsafe site or to continue to download an unsafe file, even after being warned. Because of this possibility, we strongly recommend that you set up Microsoft Defender SmartScreen to block high-risk interactions instead of providing just a warning. To better help you protect your organization, we recommend turning on and using these specific Microsoft Defender SmartScreen Group Policy and MDM settings. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

                    Firmware bootkits replace the firmware with malware.

                    All certified devices include Unified Extensible Firmware (UEFI) with Secure Boot, which requires signed firmware for updates to UEFI and Option ROMs.

                    Bootkits start malware before Windows starts.

                    UEFI with Secure Boot verifies Windows bootloader integrity to help ensure that no malicious operating system can start before Windows.

                    System or driver rootkits (typically malicious software that hides from the operating system) start kernel- level malware while Windows is starting, before antimalware solutions can start.

                    Windows Trusted Boot verifies Windows boot components, including Microsoft drivers. Measured Boot runs in parallel with Trusted Boot and can provide information to a remote server that verifies the boot state of the device to help ensure that Trusted Boot and other boot components successfully checked the system.

                    An app infects other apps or the operating system with malware.

                    All Windows 10 Mobile apps run inside an AppContainer that isolates them from all other processes and sensitive operating system components. Apps cannot access any resources outside their AppContainer.

                    An unauthorized app or malware attempts to start on the device.

                    All Windows 10 Mobile apps must come from Microsoft Store or Microsoft Store for Business. Device Guard enforces administrative policies to select exactly which apps are allowed to run.

                    User-level malware exploits a vulnerability in the system or an application and owns the device.

                    Improvements to address space layout randomization (ASLR), Data Execution Prevention (DEP), the heap architecture, and memory-management algorithms reduce the likelihood that vulnerabilities can enable successful exploits.

                    Protected Processes isolates non-trusted processes from each other and from sensitive operating system components.

                    Users access a dangerous website without knowledge of the risk.

                    The Windows Defender SmartScreen URL Reputation feature prevents users from going to a malicious website that may try to exploit the browser and take control of the device.

                    Malware exploits a vulnerability in a browser add-on.

                    Microsoft Edge is an app built on the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) that does not run legacy binary extensions, including Microsoft ActiveX and browser helper objects frequently used for toolbars, which eliminates these risks.

                    A website that includes malicious code exploits a vulnerability in the web browser to run malware on the client device.

                    Microsoft Edge includes Enhanced Protected Mode, which uses AppContainer-based sandboxing to help protect the system against vulnerabilities that at attacker may discover in the extensions running in the browser (for example, Adobe Flash, Java) or the browser itself.

                    Scope

                    SRP policies can be applied to all Windows operating systems beginning with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.

                    AppLocker policies apply only to the support versions of Windows listed in Requirements to use AppLocker.

                    Policy creation

                    SRP policies are maintained through Group Policy and only the administrator of the GPO can update the SRP policy. The administrator on the local computer can modify the SRP policies defined in the local GPO.

                    AppLocker permits customization of error messages to direct users to a Web page for help.

                    Policy maintenance

                    SRP policies must be updated by using the Local Security Policy snap-in (if the policies are created locally) or the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).

                    AppLocker policies can be updated by using the Local Security Policy snap-in, if the policies are created locally, or the GPMC, or the Windows PowerShell AppLocker cmdlets.

                    Policy application

                    SRP policies are distributed through Group Policy.

                    AppLocker policies are distributed through Group Policy.

                    Enforcement mode

                    SRP works in the “deny list mode” where administrators can create rules for files that they don't want to allow in this Enterprise, but the rest of the files are allowed to run by default.

                    -

                    SRP can also be configured in the “allow list mode” such that by default all files are blocked and administrators need to create allow rules for files that they want to allow.

                    By default, AppLocker works in allow list mode. Only those files are allowed to run for which there's a matching allow rule.

                    File types that can be controlled

                    SRP can control the following file types:

                    -
                      -

                    • Executables

                      • -

                    • DLLs

                      • -

                    • Scripts

                      • -

                    • Windows Installers

                      • -
                    -

                    SRP cannot control each file type separately. All SRP rules are in a single rule collection.

                    AppLocker can control the following file types:

                    -
                      -

                    • Executables

                      • -

                    • DLLs

                    -

                    AppLocker maintains a separate rule collection for each of the five file types.

                    Designated file types

                    SRP supports an extensible list of file types that are considered executable. You can add extensions for files that should be considered executable.

                    AppLocker doesn't support this. AppLocker currently supports the following file extensions:

                    -
                      -

                    • Executables (.exe, .com)

                      • -

                    • DLLs (.ocx, .dll)

                      • -

                    • Scripts (.vbs, .js, .ps1, .cmd, .bat)

                      • -

                    • Windows Installers (.msi, .mst, .msp)

                      • -

                    • Packaged app installers (.appx)

                      • -

                    Rule types

                    SRP supports four types of rules:

                    -
                      -

                    • Hash

                      • -

                    • Path

                      • -

                    • Signature

                      • -

                    • Internet zone

                      • -

                    AppLocker supports three types of rules:

                    -
                      -

                    • Hash

                    • Path

                      • -

                    • Publisher

                      • -

                    Editing the hash value

                    SRP allows you to select a file to hash.

                    AppLocker computes the hash value itself. Internally it uses the SHA2 Authenticode hash for Portable Executables (exe and DLL) and Windows Installers and an SHA2 flat file hash for the rest.

                    Support for different security levels

                    With SRP, you can specify the permissions with which an app can run. Then configure a rule such that Notepad always runs with restricted permissions and never with administrative privileges.

                    -

                    SRP on Windows Vista and earlier supported multiple security levels. On Windows 7, that list was restricted to just two levels: Disallowed and Unrestricted (Basic User translates to Disallowed).

                    AppLocker does not support security levels.

                    Manage Packaged apps and Packaged app installers.

                    Unable

                    .appx is a valid file type which AppLocker can manage.

                    Targeting a rule to a user or a group of users

                    SRP rules apply to all users on a particular computer.

                    AppLocker rules can be targeted to a specific user or a group of users.

                    Support for rule exceptions

                    SRP does not support rule exceptions

                    AppLocker rules can have exceptions that allow administrators to create rules such as “Allow everything from Windows except for Regedit.exe”.

                    Support for audit mode

                    SRP doesn't support audit mode. The only way to test SRP policies is to set up a test environment and run a few experiments.

                    AppLocker supports audit mode that allows administrators to test the effect of their policy in the real production environment without impacting the user experience. Once you are satisfied with the results, you can start enforcing the policy.

                    Support for exporting and importing policies

                    SRP does not support policy import/export.

                    AppLocker supports the importing and exporting of policies. This allows you to create AppLocker policy on a sample computer, test it out and then export that policy and import it back into the desired GPO.

                    Rule enforcement

                    Internally, SRP rules enforcement happens in user-mode, which is less secure.

                    Internally, AppLocker rules for exes and dlls are enforced in kernel-mode, which is more secure than enforcing them in the user-mode.

                    Scope

                    SRP policies can be applied to all Windows operating systems beginning with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.

                    AppLocker policies apply only to Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7, and later.

                    Policy creation

                    SRP policies are maintained through Group Policy and only the administrator of the GPO can update the SRP policy. The administrator on the local computer can modify the SRP policies defined in the local GPO.

                    AppLocker policies are maintained through Group Policy and only the administrator of the GPO can update the policy. The administrator on the local computer can modify the AppLocker policies defined in the local GPO.

                    AppLocker permits customization of error messages to direct users to a Web page for help.

                    Policy maintenance

                    SRP policies must be updated by using the Local Security Policy snap-in (if the policies are created locally) or the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).

                    AppLocker policies can be updated by using the Local Security Policy snap-in (if the policies are created locally), or the GPMC, or the Windows PowerShell AppLocker cmdlets.

                    Policy application

                    SRP policies are distributed through Group Policy.

                    AppLocker policies are distributed through Group Policy.

                    Enforcement mode

                    SRP works in the “deny list mode” where administrators can create rules for files that they do not want to allow in this Enterprise whereas the rest of the file is allowed to run by default.

                    -

                    SRP can also be configured in the “allowlist mode” so that by default all files are blocked and administrators need to create allow rules for files that they want to allow.

                    AppLocker by default works in the “allowlist mode” where only those files are allowed to run for which there is a matching allow rule.

                    File types that can be controlled

                    SRP can control the following file types:

                    -
                      -

                    • Executables

                    -

                    SRP cannot control each file type separately. All SRP rules are in a single rule collection.

                    AppLocker can control the following file types:

                    -
                      -

                    AppLocker maintains a separate rule collection for each of the five file types.

                    Designated file types

                    SRP supports an extensible list of file types that are considered executable. Administrators can add extensions for files that should be considered executable.

                    AppLocker currently supports the following file extensions:

                    -
                      -

                    • Executables (.exe, .com)

                      • -

                    • Dlls (.ocx, .dll)

                      • -

                    • Scripts (.vbs, .js, .ps1, .cmd, .bat)

                      • -

                    • Windows Installers (.msi, .mst, .msp)

                      • -

                    • Packaged app installers (.appx)

                      • -

                    Rule types

                    SRP supports four types of rules:

                    -
                      -

                    • Hash

                      • -

                      • -

                    AppLocker supports three types of rules:

                    -
                      -

                    • File hash

                      • -

                    • Path

                      • -

                    • Publisher

                      • -

                    Editing the hash value

                    In Windows XP, you could use SRP to provide custom hash values.

                    -

                    Beginning with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, you can only select the file to hash, not provide the hash value.

                    AppLocker computes the hash value itself. Internally, it uses the SHA2 Authenticode hash for Portable Executables (exe and dll) and Windows Installers and an SHA2 flat file hash for the rest.

                    Support for different security levels

                    With SRP, you can specify the permissions with which an app can run. So, you can configure a rule such that Notepad always runs with restricted permissions and never with administrative privileges.

                    -

                    SRP on Windows Vista and earlier supported multiple security levels. On Windows 7, that list was restricted to just two levels: Disallowed and Unrestricted (Basic User translates to Disallowed).

                    AppLocker does not support security levels.

                    Manage Packaged apps and Packaged app installers.

                    Not supported

                    .appx is a valid file type which AppLocker can manage.

                    Targeting a rule to a user or a group of users

                    SRP rules apply to all users on a particular computer.

                    AppLocker rules can be targeted to a specific user or a group of users.

                    Support for rule exceptions

                    SRP does not support rule exceptions.

                    AppLocker rules can have exceptions, which allow you to create rules such as “Allow everything from Windows except for regedit.exe”.

                    Support for audit mode

                    SRP does not support audit mode. The only way to test SRP policies is to set up a test environment and run a few experiments.

                    AppLocker supports audit mode, which allows you to test the effect of their policy in the real production environment without impacting the user experience. Once you are satisfied with the results, you can start enforcing the policy.

                    Support for exporting and importing policies

                    SRP does not support policy import/export.

                    AppLocker supports the importing and exporting of policies. This allows you to create AppLocker policy on a sample device, test it out and then export that policy and import it back into the desired GPO.

                    Rule enforcement

                    Internally, SRP rules enforcement happens in the user-mode, which is less secure.

                    Internally, AppLocker rules for .exe and .dll files are enforced in the kernel-mode, which is more secure than enforcing them in the user-mode.

                    Operating system scope

                    SRP policies can be applied to all Windows operating systems beginning with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.

                    AppLocker policies apply only to those supported operating system versions and editions listed in Requirements to use AppLocker. But these systems can also use SRP.

                    User support

                    SRP allows users to install applications as an administrator.

                    AppLocker policies are maintained through Group Policy, and only the administrator of the device can update an AppLocker policy.

                    -

                    AppLocker permits customization of error messages to direct users to a Web page for help.

                    Policy maintenance

                    SRP policies are updated by using the Local Security Policy snap-in or the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).

                    AppLocker policies are updated by using the Local Security Policy snap-in or the GPMC.

                    -

                    AppLocker supports a small set of PowerShell cmdlets to aid in administration and maintenance.

                    Policy management infrastructure

                    To manage SRP policies, SRP uses Group Policy within a domain and the Local Security Policy snap-in for a local computer.

                    Block malicious scripts

                    Rules for blocking malicious scripts prevents all scripts associated with the Windows Script Host from running, except those that are digitally signed by your organization.

                    AppLocker rules can control the following file formats: .ps1, .bat, .cmd, .vbs, and .js. In addition, you can set exceptions to allow specific files to run.

                    Manage software installation

                    SRP can prevent all Windows Installer packages from installing. It allows .msi files that are digitally signed by your organization to be installed.

                    The Windows Installer rule collection is a set of rules created for Windows Installer file types (.mst, .msi and .msp) to allow you to control the installation of files on client computers and servers.

                    Manage all software on the computer

                    All software is managed in one rule set. By default, the policy for managing all software on a device disallows all software on the user's device, except software that is installed in the Windows folder, Program Files folder, or subfolders.

                    Unlike SRP, each AppLocker rule collection functions as an allowed list of files. Only the files that are listed within the rule collection will be allowed to run. This configuration makes it easier for administrators to determine what will occur when an AppLocker rule is applied.

                    Different policies for different users

                    Rules are applied uniformly to all users on a particular device.

                    On a device that is shared by multiple users, an administrator can specify the groups of users who can access the installed software. Using AppLocker, an administrator can specify the user to whom a specific rule should apply.

                      Make sure the file is encrypted by right-clicking the file again, clicking **Advanced** from the **General** tab, and then clicking **Details** from the **Compress or Encrypt attributes** area. The file should show up under the heading, **This enterprise domain can remove or revoke access:** <your_enterprise_identity>. For example, contoso.com.
                    2. In File Explorer, right-click the same document, and then click **Personal** from the **File Ownership** menu.
                      Make sure the file is decrypted by right-clicking the file again, clicking **Advanced** from the **General** tab, and then verifying that the **Details** button is unavailable.
                    **For mobile:**

                    1. Open the File Explorer app, browse to a file location, click the elipsis (...), and then click **Select** to mark at least one file as work-related.
                    2. Click the elipsis (...) again, click **File ownership** from the drop down menu, and then click **Work**.
                      Make sure the file is encrypted, by locating the **Briefcase** icon next to the file name.
                    3. Select the same file, click **File ownership** from the drop down menu, and then click **Personal**.
                      Make sure the file is decrypted and that you're no longer seeing the **Briefcase** icon next to file name.

                    • Start an unenlightened but allowed app, such as a line-of-business app, and then create a new document, saving your changes.
                      Make sure the document is encrypted to your Enterprise Identity. This might take a few minutes and require you to close and re-open the file.

                      **Important**
                      Certain file types like .exe and .dll, along with certain file paths, such as %windir% and %programfiles% are excluded from automatic encryption.

                      For more info about your Enterprise Identity and adding apps to your allowed apps list, see either [Create a Windows Information Protection (WIP) policy using Microsoft Intune](create-wip-policy-using-intune-azure.md) or [Create a Windows Information Protection (WIP) policy using Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager](create-wip-policy-using-configmgr.md), based on your deployment system.
                    **For mobile:**

                    1. Start an allowed mobile app, such as Word Mobile, create a new document, and then save your changes as **Work** to a local, work-related location.
                      Make sure the document is encrypted, by locating the **Briefcase** icon next to the file name.
                    2. Open the same document and attempt to save it to a non-work-related location.
                      WIP should stop you from saving the file to this location.
                    3. Open the same document one last time, make a change to the contents, and then save it again using the **Personal** option.
                      Make sure the file is decrypted and that you're no longer seeing the **Briefcase** icon next to file name.
                    | -|Block enterprise data from non-enterprise apps.|
                    1. Start an app that doesn't appear on your allowed apps list, and then try to open a work-encrypted file.
                      The app shouldn't be able to access the file.
                    2. Try double-clicking or tapping on the work-encrypted file.
                      If your default app association is an app not on your allowed apps list, you should get an **Access Denied** error message.

                      You should see a WIP-related warning box, asking you to click either **Change to personal** or **Keep at work**.
                    2. Click **Keep at work**.
                      The content isn't pasted into the non-enterprise app.
                    3. Repeat Step 1, but this time click **Change to personal**, and try to paste the content again.
                      The content is pasted into the non-enterprise app.
                    4. Try copying and pasting content between apps on your allowed apps list.
                      The content should copy and paste between apps without any warning messages.

                    | -|Verify that Windows system components can use WIP.|
                    1. Start Windows Journal and Internet Explorer 11, creating, editing, and saving files in both apps.
                      Make sure that all of the files you worked with are encrypted to your configured Enterprise Identity. In some cases, you might need to close the file and wait a few moments for it to be automatically encrypted.
                    2. Open File Explorer and make sure your modified files are appearing with a **Lock** icon.
                    3. Try copying and pasting, dragging and dropping, and sharing using these apps with other apps that appear both on and off the allowed apps list.

                      **Note**
                      Most Windows-signed components like File Explorer (when running in the user's context), should have access to enterprise data.

                      A few notable exceptions include some of the user-facing in-box apps, like Wordpad, Notepad, and Microsoft Paint. These apps don't have access by default, but can be added to your allowed apps list.
                    | -|Use WIP on NTFS, FAT, and exFAT systems.|
                    1. Start an app that uses the FAT or exFAT file system (for example a SD card or USB flash drive), and appears on your allowed apps list.
                    2. Create, edit, write, save, copy, and move files.
                      Basic file and folder operations like copy, move, rename, delete, and so on, should work properly on encrypted files.
                    | -|Verify your shared files can use WIP.|
                    1. Download a file from a protected file share, making sure the file is encrypted by locating the **Briefcase** icon next to the file name.
                    2. Open the same file, make a change, save it and then try to upload it back to the file share. Again, this should work without any warnings.
                    3. Open an app that doesn't appear on your allowed apps list and attempt to access a file on the WIP-enabled file share.
                      The app shouldn't be able to access the file share.
                    | -|Verify your cloud resources can use WIP.|
                    1. Add both Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge to your allowed apps list.
                    2. Open SharePoint (or another cloud resource that's part of your policy) and access a WIP-enabled resource by using both IE11 and Microsoft Edge.
                      Both browsers should respect the enterprise and personal boundary.
                    3. Remove Internet Explorer 11 from your allowed app list and then try to access an intranet site or enterprise-related cloud resource.
                      IE11 shouldn't be able to access the sites.

                      **Note**
                      Any file downloaded from your work SharePoint site, or any other WIP-enabled cloud resource, is automatically marked as **Work**.
                    | -|Verify your Virtual Private Network (VPN) can be auto-triggered.|
                    1. Set up your VPN network to start based on the **WIPModeID** setting.
                      For specific info about how to do this, see the [Create and deploy a VPN policy for Windows Information Protection (WIP) using Microsoft Intune](create-vpn-and-wip-policy-using-intune-azure.md) topic.
                    2. Start an app from your allowed apps list.
                      The VPN network should automatically start.
                    3. Disconnect from your network and then start an app that isn't on your allowed apps list.
                      The VPN shouldn't start and the app shouldn't be able to access your enterprise network.

To use AppLocker to control interpreted code, the host process must call AppLocker before it runs the interpreted code, and then enforce the decision that is returned by AppLocker.
