Virtualization-based protection of code integrity (herein referred to as hypervisor-protected code integrity, or HVCI) is a powerful system mitigation that leverages hardware virtualization and the Windows Hyper-V hypervisor to protect Windows kernel-mode processes against the injection and execution of malicious or unverified code.
Code integrity validation is performed in a secure environment that is resistant to attack from malicious software, and page permissions for kernel mode are set and maintained by the Hyper-V hypervisor.
This topic covers different ways to enable Hypervisor-protected code integrity (HVCI) on Windows 10.
Some applications, including device drivers, may be incompatible with HVCI.
This can cause devices or software to malfunction and in rare cases may result in a Blue Screen. Such issues may occur after HVCI has been turned on or during the enablement process itself.
If this happens, see [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) for remediation steps.
