+# Surface Hub security overview
+
+Surface Hub provides a locked-down computing appliance with custom platform firmware running the Windows 10 Team Edition operating system. The resulting device takes the traditional, "single use" secure kiosk, "only run what you need" philosophy and delivers a modern take on it. Built to support a rich collaborative user experience, Surface Hub is protected against continually evolving security threats.
+
+Built on Windows 10, Surface Hub delivers enterprise-grade modern security enabling IT admins to enforce data protection with BitLocker, Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM), plus cloud-powered security with Windows Defender (also known as Microsoft Defender).
+
+## Defense in Depth security
+
+Security protocols begin as soon as Surface Hub is turned on. Starting at the firmware level, Surface Hub will only load the operating system and its components in response to multiple security checks. Surface Hub employs a strategy called Defense in Depth that involves layering independent defensive sub-components to protect the whole of the system in the event of partial failure. This industry practice has proven to be highly effective in mitigating against potential unilateral exploits and weakness in sub-components.
+
+The modern Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) is statically and securely configured by Microsoft to only boot an authenticated Windows 10 Team Edition operating system from internal storage.  Every line of code that runs on Surface Hub has its signature verified prior to execution. Only applications signed by Microsoft, either as part of the operating system or installed via the Microsoft Store, can run on the Surface Hub. Code or apps not meeting these requirements are blocked.
+
+Surface Hub security systems include the following:
+
+- **Boot-time defenses.** Loads only trusted Surface Hub operating system components.
+- **Operating system defenses.** Protects against execution of unintended or malicious software or code.
+- **User interface defenses.** Provides a user interface that's safe for end users, preventing access to potentially risky activities such as running executables from the command line.
+
+### Boot-time defenses
+
+The SoC has a security processor that's separate from every other core. When you first start Surface Hub, only the security processor starts before anything else can be loaded.
+
+![Hub startup boot phases showing security processor protections](images/hub-sec-1.png)
+
+#### Secure Boot
+
+Secure Boot is used to verify that the components of the boot process, including drivers and the operating system, are validated against a database of valid and known signatures. On Surface Hub, a platform-specific signature must first be validated before the authorized Windows Team operating system can be loaded. This helps prevent attacks from a cloned or modified system running malicious code hidden in what appears to be an otherwise normal user experience.  For more information, see [Secure Boot overview](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/design/device-experiences/oem-secure-boot).
+
+### Operating system defenses
+
+Once the operating system is verified as originating from Microsoft and Surface Hub successfully completes the boot process, the device scrutinizes the executable code. Our approach to securing the operating system involves identifying the code signature of all executables, allowing only those that pass our restrictions to be loaded into the runtime. This code signing method enables the operating system to verify the author and confirm that code was not altered prior to running on the device.
+
+Surface Hub uses a code signing feature known as User Mode Code Integrity (UMCI) in Windows Application Control (formerly known as Device Guard). Policy settings are configured to only allow apps that meet one of these requirements:
+
+- Universal Windows Platform (Microsoft Store) apps that are [officially certified](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/publish/the-app-certification-process).
+- Apps signed with the unique Microsoft Production Root Certification Authority (CA), which can only be signed by Microsoft employees with authorized access to those certificates.
+- Apps signed with the unique Surface Hub Production Root C.
+
+The configuration file is signed using the Microsoft Production Root CA designed to prevent restrictions from being removed or modified by a third party. All other executables at this point are simply blocked at the operating system runtime level and prevented from accessing processing power. This attack surface reduction provides the following protections:
+
+- No legacy document modes
+- No legacy script engines
+- No Vector Markup Language
+- No Browser Helper Objects
+- No ActiveX controls
+
+In addition to blocking unsigned or incorrectly signed code via UMCI, Surface Hub uses Windows Application Control to block Windows components, such as the Command Prompt, PowerShell, and Task Manager. These safeguards reflect a key design feature of Surface Hub as a secure computing appliance. For more information, see the following:
+
+- [Application Control overview](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/windows-defender-application-control)
+
+- [Windows Defender Application Control and virtualization-based protection of code integrity](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/device-guard/introduction-to-device-guard-virtualization-based-security-and-windows-defender-application-control)
+
+### User interface defenses
+
+While boot-time defenses and operating system lockdown safeguards deliver foundational security, the user interface provides an additional layer designed to further reduce risk. To prevent malicious code from reaching the device through drivers, Surface Hub does not download advanced drivers for plug and play (PnP) devices. Devices that leverage basic drivers, such as USB flash drives or certified Surface Hub peripherals (speakers, microphones, cameras) work as expected, but advanced systems, such as printers, will not.
+
+User interface defenses also simplify the UI, further preventing the execution of malicious software or code. The following Surface Hub UI elements layer the core security provided by code signing:
+
+- **File Explorer.** Surface Hub has a custom File Explorer that enables quick access to Music, Videos, Documents, Pictures, and Downloads folders — without exposing users to system or program files. Other locations on the local hard drive are not available through File Explorer. In addition, many file types running such as .exe, and .msi installation files cannot run providing another layer of safety against potentially malicious executables.
+
+- **Start & All Apps.** The Start and All Apps components of Surface Hub do not expose access to Command Prompt, PowerShell, or other Windows components blocked via Application Control. In addition, Windows run functionality typically accessed on PCs from the Search box is turned off for Surface Hub.
+
+## Security enhancements in Surface Hub 2S
+
+Although Surface Hub and Surface Hub 2S both run the same operating system software, some features unique to Surface Hub 2S provide additional management and security capabilities enabling IT admins to perform the following tasks:
+
+- Manage UEFI settings with SEMM
+- Recover Hub with bootable USB
+- Harden device account with password rotation
+
+### Manage UEFI settings with SEMM
+
+UEFI is an interface between the underlying hardware platform pieces and the operating system. On Surface Hub, a custom UEFI implementation allows granular control over these settings and prevents any non-Microsoft entity from changing the UEFI settings of the device — or booting to a removable drive to modify or change the operating system.
+
+At a high level, during the factory provisioning process, Surface Hub UEFI is preconfigured to enable Secure Boot and is set to only boot from the internal solid-state drive (SSD), with access to UEFI menus locked down and shortcuts removed. This seals UEFI access and ensures the device can only boot into the Windows Team operating system installed on Surface Hub.
+
+When managed via Microsoft Surface Enterprise Management Mode (SEMM), IT admins can deploy UEFI settings on Hub devices across an organization. This includes the ability to enable or disable built-in hardware components, protect UEFI settings from being changed by unauthorized users, and adjust boot settings.
+
+![Surface Hub UEFI settings](images/hub-sec-2.png)
+
+Admins can implement SEMM and enrolled Surface Hub 2S devices using the downloadable [Microsoft Surface UEFI Configurator](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=46703). For more information, see [Secure and manage Surface Hub 2S with SEMM and UEFI](https://docs.microsoft.com/surface-hub/surface-hub-2s-secure-with-uefi-semm).
+Secured using a certificate to protect the configuration from unauthorized tampering or removal, SEMM enables management of the following components:
+
+- Wired LAN
+- Camera
+- Bluetooth
+- Wi-Fi
+- Occupancy sensor
+- IPv6 for PXE Boot
+- Alternate Boot
+- Boot Order Lock
+- USB Boot
+- UEFI front page interface
+    - Devices
+    - Boot
+    - Date/Time
+
+    
+### Recover Hub with bootable USB
+
+Surface Hub 2S enables admins to reinstall the device to factory settings using a recovery image in as little as 20 minutes. Typically, you would only need to do this if your Surface Hub is no longer functioning. Recovery is also useful if you have lost the Bitlocker key or no longer have admin credentials to the Settings app.
+
+### Harden device account with password rotation
+
+Surface Hub uses a device account, also known as a "room account" to authenticate with Exchange, Microsoft Teams, and other services. When you enable password rotation, Hub 2S automatically generates a new password every 7 days, consisting of 15-32 characters with a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Because no one knows the password, the device account password rotation effectively mitigates associated risk from human error and potential social engineering security attacks.
+
+## Windows 10 enterprise-grade security
+
+In addition to Surface Hub-specific configurations and features addressed in this document, Surface Hub also uses the standard security features of Windows 10. These include:
+
+- **BitLocker**. The Surface Hub SSD is equipped with BitLocker to protect the data on the device. Its configuration follows industry standards. For more information, see [BitLocker overview](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/design/device-experiences/oem-secure-boot).
+- **Windows Defender.** The Windows Defender anti-malware engine runs continuously on Surface Hub and works to automatically remediate threats found on Surface Hub. The Windows Defender engine receives updates automatically and is manageable via remote management tools for IT admins. The Windows Defender engine is a perfect example of our Defense in Depth approach: If malware can find a way around our core code-signage-based security solution, it will be caught here. For more information, see [Windows Defender Application Control and virtualization-based protection of code integrity](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/device-guard/introduction-to-device-guard-virtualization-based-security-and-windows-defender-application-control).
+- **Plug and play drivers.** To prevent malicious code from reaching the device through drivers, Surface Hub does not download advanced drivers for PnP devices. This allows devices that leverage basic drivers such as USB flash drives to work as expected while blocking more advanced systems such as printers.
+- **Trusted Platform Module 2.0.** Surface Hub has an industry standard discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) for generating and storing cryptographic keys and hashes. The dTPM protects keys used for the verification of boot phases, the BitLocker master key, password-less sign-on key, and more. The dTPM meets [FIPS 140-2 Level 2](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/fips-140-validation) certification, the U.S. government computer security standard, and is compliant with [Common Criteria](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-platform-common-criteria) certification used worldwide.
+
+## Wireless security for Surface Hub
+
+Surface Hub uses Wi-Fi Direct / Miracast technology and the associated 802.11, Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2), and Wireless Protected Setup (WPS) standards. Since the device only supports WPS (as opposed to WPA2 Pre-Shared Key (PSK) or WPA2 Enterprise), issues traditionally associated with 802.11 encryption are simplified by design.
+
+Miracast is part of the Wi-Fi Display standard, which itself is supported by the Wi-Fi Direct protocol. These standards are supported in modern mobile devices for screen sharing and collaboration.
+
+Wi-Fi Direct or Wi-Fi "peer to peer" (P2P) is a standard released by the Wi-Fi Alliance for "Ad-Hoc" networks. This allows supported devices to communicate directly and create groups of networks without requiring a traditional Wi-Fi Access Point or an Internet connection.
+
+Security for Wi-Fi Direct is provided by WPA2 using the WPS standard. Devices can be authenticated using a numerical pin, a physical or virtual push button, or an out-of-band message using near-field communication. Surface Hub supports both push button by default as well PIN methods. For more information, see [How Surface Hub addresses Wi-Fi Direct security issues](https://docs.microsoft.com/surface-hub/surface-hub-wifi-direct).

 ### Why use MDT Lite Touch to create reference images
 
 You can create reference images for Configuration Manager in Configuration Manager, but in general we recommend creating them in MDT Lite Touch for the following reasons:
--   In a deployment project, it is typically much faster to create a reference image using MDT Lite Touch than Configuration Manager.
 -   You can use the same image for every type of operating system deployment - Microsoft Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM), MDT, Configuration Manager, Windows Deployment Services (WDS), and more.
 -   Configuration Manager performs deployment in the LocalSystem context. This means that you cannot configure the Administrator account with all of the settings that you would like to be included in the image. MDT runs in the context of the Local Administrator, which means you can configure the look and feel of the configuration and then use the CopyProfile functionality to copy these changes to the default user during deployment.
 -   The Configuration Manager task sequence does not suppress user interface interaction.

+# Windows Sandbox architecture
+
+Windows Sandbox benefits from new container technology in Windows to achieve a combination of security, density, and performance that isn't available in traditional VMs.
+
+## Dynamically generated image
+
+Rather than requiring a separate copy of Windows to boot the sandbox, Dynamic Base Image technology leverages the copy of Windows already installed on the host.
+
+Most OS files are immutable and can be freely shared with Windows Sandbox. A small subset of operating system files are mutable and cannot be shared, so the sandbox base image contains pristine copies of them. A complete Windows image can be constructed from a combination of the sharable immutable files on the host and the pristine copies of the mutable files. By using this scheme, Windows Sandbox has a full Windows installation to boot from without needing to download or store an additional copy of Windows.
+ 
+Before Windows Sandbox is installed, the dynamic base image package is stored as a compressed 30-MB package. Once it's installed, the dynamic base image occupies about 500 MB of disk space.
+
+![A chart compares scale of dynamic image of files and links with the host file system.](images/1-dynamic-host.png)
+
+## Memory management
+
+Traditional VMs apportion statically sized allocations of host memory. When resource needs change, classic VMs have limited mechanisms for adjusting their resource needs. On the other hand, containers collaborate with the host to dynamically determine how host resources are allocated. This is similar to how processes normally compete for memory on the host. If the host is under memory pressure, it can reclaim memory from the container much like it would with a process.
+
+![A chart compares memory sharing in Windows Sandbox versus a traditional VM.](images/2-dynamic-working.png)
+
+## Memory sharing
+
+Because Windows Sandbox runs the same operating system image as the host, it has been enhanced to use the same physical memory pages as the host for operating system binaries via a technology referred to as "direct map." For example, when *ntdll.dll* is loaded into memory in the sandbox, it uses the same physical pages as those of the binary when loaded on the host. Memory sharing between the host and the sandbox results in a smaller memory footprint when compared to traditional VMs, without compromising valuable host secrets.
+
+![A chart compares the memory footprint in Windows Sandbox versus a traditional VM.](images/3-memory-sharing.png)
+
+## Integrated kernel scheduler
+
+With ordinary virtual machines, the Microsoft hypervisor controls the scheduling of the virtual processors running in the VMs. Windows Sandbox uses new technology called "integrated scheduling," which allows the host scheduler to decide when the sandbox gets CPU cycles.
+
+![A chart compares the scheduling in Windows Sandbox versus a traditional VM.](images/4-integrated-kernal.png)
+
+Windows Sandbox employs a unique policy that allows the virtual processors of the Sandbox to be scheduled like host threads. Under this scheme, high-priority tasks on the host can preempt less important work in the Sandbox. This means that the most important work will be prioritized, whether it's on the host or in the container.
+ 
+## WDDM GPU virtualization
+
+Hardware accelerated rendering is key to a smooth and responsive user experience, especially for graphics-intensive use cases. Microsoft works with its graphics ecosystem partners to integrate modern graphics virtualization capabilities directly into DirectX and Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM), the driver model used by Windows.
+
+This allows programs running inside the sandbox to compete for GPU resources with applications that are running on the host.
+
+![A chart illustrates graphics kernel use in Sandbox managed alongside apps on the host.](images/5-wddm-gpu-virtualization.png)
+
+To take advantage of these benefits, a system with a compatible GPU and graphics drivers (WDDM 2.5 or newer) is required. Incompatible systems will render apps in Windows Sandbox with Microsoft's CPU-based rendering technology, Windows Advanced Rasterization Platform (WARP).
+ 
+## Battery pass-through
+
+Windows Sandbox is also aware of the host's battery state, which allows it to optimize its power consumption. This functionality is critical for technology that is used on laptops, where battery life is often critical.

+# Windows Sandbox configuration
+
+Windows Sandbox supports simple configuration files, which provide a minimal set of customization parameters for Sandbox. This feature can be used with Windows 10 build 18342 or later.
+
+Windows Sandbox configuration files are formatted as XML and are associated with Sandbox via the .wsb file extension. To use a configuration file, double-click it to open it in the sandbox. You can also invoke it via the command line as shown here:
+
+**C:\Temp> MyConfigFile.wsb** 
+
+ A configuration file enables the user to control the following aspects of Windows Sandbox:
+- **vGPU (virtualized GPU)**: Enable or disable the virtualized GPU. If vGPU is disabled, the sandbox will use Windows Advanced Rasterization Platform (WARP).
+- **Networking**: Enable or disable network access within the sandbox.
+- **Mapped folders**: Share folders from the host with *read* or *write* permissions. Note that exposing host directories may allow malicious software to affect the system or steal data.
+- **Logon command**: A command that's executed when Windows Sandbox starts.
+- **Audio input**: Shares the host's microphone input into the sandbox.
+- **Video input**: Shares the host's webcam input into the sandbox.
+- **Protected client**: Places increased security settings on the RDP session to the sandbox.
+- **Printer redirection**: Shares printers from the host into the sandbox.
+- **Clipboard redirection**: Shares the host clipboard with the sandbox so that text and files can be pasted back and forth.
+- **Memory in MB**: The amount of memory, in megabytes, to assign to the sandbox.
+
+**Keywords, values, and limits**
+
+**vGPU**: Enables or disables GPU sharing.
+
+`<vGPU>value</vGPU>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Enable*: Enables vGPU support in the sandbox.
+- *Disable*: Disables vGPU support in the sandbox. If this value is set, the sandbox will use software rendering, which may be slower than virtualized GPU.
+- *Default* This is the default value for vGPU support. Currently this means vGPU is disabled.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Enabling virtualized GPU can potentially increase the attack surface of the sandbox.
+
+**Networking**: Enables or disables networking in the sandbox. You can disable network access to decrease the attack surface exposed by the sandbox.
+
+`<Networking>value</Networking>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Disable*: Disables networking in the sandbox.
+- *Default*: This is the default value for networking support. This value enables networking by creating a virtual switch on the host and connects the sandbox to it via a virtual NIC.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Enabling networking can expose untrusted applications to the internal network.
+
+**Mapped folders**: An array of folders, each representing a location on the host machine that will be shared into the sandbox at the specified path. At this time, relative paths are not supported. If no path is specified, the folder will be mapped to the container user's desktop.
+
+```xml
+<MappedFolders>
+  <MappedFolder> 
+    <HostFolder>absolute path to the host folder</HostFolder> 
+    <SandboxFolder>absolute path to the sandbox folder</SandboxFolder> 
+    <ReadOnly>value</ReadOnly> 
+  </MappedFolder>
+  <MappedFolder>  
+    ...
+  </MappedFolder>
+</MappedFolders>
+```
+
+*HostFolder*: Specifies the folder on the host machine to share into the sandbox. Note that the folder must already exist on the host, or the container will fail to start.
+
+*SandboxFolder*: Specifies the destination in the sandbox to map the folder to. If the folder doesn't exist, it will be created. If no sandbox folder is specified, the folder will be mapped to the container desktop.
+
+*ReadOnly*: If *true*, enforces read-only access to the shared folder from within the container. Supported values: *true*/*false*. Defaults to *false*.
+
+
+> [!NOTE] 
+> Files and folders mapped in from the host can be compromised by apps in the sandbox or potentially affect the host.
+
+**Logon command**: Specifies a single command that will be invoked automatically after the sandbox logs on. Apps in the sandbox are run under the container user account.
+
+```xml
+<LogonCommand>
+  <Command>command to be invoked</Command>
+</LogonCommand>
+```
+
+*Command*: A path to an executable or script inside the container that will be executed after login.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Although very simple commands will work (such as launching an executable or script), more complicated scenarios involving multiple steps should be placed into a script file. This script file may be mapped into the container via a shared folder, and then executed via the *LogonCommand* directive.
+
+**Audio input**: Enables or disables audio input to the sandbox.
+
+`<AudioInput>value</AudioInput>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Enable*: Enables audio input in the sandbox. If this value is set, the sandbox will be able to receive audio input from the user. Applications that use a microphone may require this capability.
+- *Disable*: Disables audio input in the sandbox. If this value is set, the sandbox can't receive audio input from the user. Applications that use a microphone may not function properly with this setting.
+- *Default*: This is the default value for audio input support. Currently this means audio input is enabled.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> There may be security implications of exposing host audio input to the container.
+ 
+**Video input**: Enables or disables video input to the sandbox.
+
+`<VideoInput>value</VideoInput>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Enable*: Enables video input in the sandbox. 
+- *Disable*: Disables video input in the sandbox. Applications that use video input may not function properly in the sandbox.
+- *Default*: This is the default value for video input support. Currently this means video input is disabled. Applications that use video input may not function properly in the sandbox.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> There may be security implications of exposing host video input to the container.
+
+**Protected client**: Applies additional security settings to the sandbox Remote Desktop client, decreasing its attack surface.
+
+`<ProtectedClient>value</ProtectedClient>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Enable*: Runs Windows sandbox in Protected Client mode. If this value is set, the sandbox runs with extra security mitigations enabled.
+- *Disable*: Runs the sandbox in standard mode without extra security mitigations.
+- *Default*: This is the default value for Protected Client mode. Currently, this means the sandbox doesn't run in Protected Client mode.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> This setting may restrict the user's ability to copy/paste files in and out of the sandbox.
+
+**Printer redirection**: Enables or disables printer sharing from the host into the sandbox.
+
+`<PrinterRedirection>value</PrinterRedirection>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Enable*: Enables sharing of host printers into the sandbox.
+- *Disable*: Disables printer redirection in the sandbox. If this value is set, the sandbox can't view printers from the host.
+- *Default*: This is the default value for printer redirection support. Currently this means printer redirection is disabled.
+
+**Clipboard redirection**: Enables or disables sharing of the host clipboard with the sandbox.
+
+`<ClipboardRedirection>value</ClipboardRedirection>`
+
+Supported values:
+- *Disable*: Disables clipboard redirection in the sandbox. If this value is set, copy/paste in and out of the sandbox will be restricted. 
+- *Default*: This is the default value for clipboard redirection. Currently copy/paste between the host and sandbox are permitted under *Default*.
+
+**Memory in MB**: Specifies the amount of memory that the sandbox can use in megabytes (MB).
+
+`<MemoryInMB>value</MemoryInMB>`
+
+If the memory value specified is insufficient to boot a sandbox, it will be automatically increased to the required minimum amount.
+
+***Example 1***   
+The following config file can be used to easily test downloaded files inside the sandbox. To achieve this, networking and vGPU are disabled, and the sandbox is allowed read-only access to the shared downloads folder. For convenience, the logon command opens the downloads folder inside the sandbox when it's started.
+
+*Downloads.wsb*
+
+```xml
+<Configuration>
+  <VGpu>Disable</VGpu>
+  <Networking>Disable</Networking>
+  <MappedFolders>
+    <MappedFolder>
+      <HostFolder>C:\Users\Public\Downloads</HostFolder>
+      <SandboxFolder>C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount\Downloads</SandboxFolder>
+      <ReadOnly>true</ReadOnly>
+    </MappedFolder>
+  </MappedFolders>
+  <LogonCommand>
+    <Command>explorer.exe C:\users\WDAGUtilityAccount\Downloads</Command>
+  </LogonCommand>
+</Configuration>
+```
+
+***Example 2***
+
+The following config file installs Visual Studio Code in the sandbox, which requires a slightly more complicated LogonCommand setup.
+
+Two folders are mapped into the sandbox; the first (SandboxScripts) contains VSCodeInstall.cmd, which will install and run Visual Studio Code. The second folder (CodingProjects) is assumed to contain project files that the developer wants to modify using Visual Studio Code.
+
+With the Visual Studio Code installer script already mapped into the sandbox, the LogonCommand can reference it.
+
+*VSCodeInstall.cmd*
+
+```console
+REM Download Visual Studio Code
+curl -L "https://update.code.visualstudio.com/latest/win32-x64-user/stable" --output C:\users\WDAGUtilityAccount\Desktop\vscode.exe
+
+REM Install and run Visual Studio Code
+C:\users\WDAGUtilityAccount\Desktop\vscode.exe /verysilent /suppressmsgboxes
+```
+
+*VSCode.wsb*
+
+```xml
+<Configuration>
+  <MappedFolders>
+    <MappedFolder>
+      <HostFolder>C:\SandboxScripts</HostFolder>
+      <ReadOnly>true</ReadOnly>
+    </MappedFolder>
+    <MappedFolder>
+      <HostFolder>C:\CodingProjects</HostFolder>
+      <ReadOnly>false</ReadOnly>
+    </MappedFolder>
+  </MappedFolders>
+  <LogonCommand>
+    <Command>C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount\Desktop\SandboxScripts\VSCodeInstall.cmd</Command>
+  </LogonCommand>
+</Configuration>
+```

+# Windows Sandbox 
+
+Windows Sandbox provides a lightweight desktop environment to safely run applications in isolation. Software installed inside the Windows Sandbox environment remains "sandboxed" and runs separately from the host machine.
+
+A sandbox is temporary. When it's closed, all the software and files and the state are deleted. You get a brand-new instance of the sandbox every time you open the application.
+
+Software and applications installed on the host aren't directly available in the sandbox. If you need specific applications available inside the Windows Sandbox environment, they must be explicitly installed within the environment.
+
+Windows Sandbox has the following properties:
+- **Part of Windows**: Everything required for this feature is included in Windows 10 Pro and Enterprise. There's no need to download a VHD.
+- **Pristine**: Every time Windows Sandbox runs, it's as clean as a brand-new installation of Windows.
+- **Disposable**: Nothing persists on the device. Everything is discarded when the user closes the application.
+- **Secure**: Uses hardware-based virtualization for kernel isolation. It relies on the Microsoft hypervisor to run a separate kernel that isolates Windows Sandbox from the host.
+- **Efficient:** Uses the integrated kernel scheduler, smart memory management, and virtual GPU.
+
+The following video provides an overview of Windows Sandbox.
+
+> [!VIDEO https://www.microsoft.com/videoplayer/embed/RE4rFAo]
+
+
+## Prerequisites
+ 
+- Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise build 18305 or later (*Windows Sandbox is currently not supported on Home SKUs*)
+- AMD64 architecture
+- Virtualization capabilities enabled in BIOS
+- At least 4 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
+- At least 1 GB of free disk space (SSD recommended)
+- At least two CPU cores (four cores with hyperthreading recommended)
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Ensure that your machine is using Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise, build version 18305 or later.
+2. Enable virtualization on the machine.
+
+   - If you're using a physical machine, make sure virtualization capabilities are enabled in the BIOS.
+   - If you're using a virtual machine, run the following PowerShell command to enable nested virtualization:<br/> **Set -VMProcessor -VMName \<VMName> -ExposeVirtualizationExtensions $true**
+1. Use the search bar on the task bar and type **Turn Windows Features on and off** to access the Windows Optional Features tool. Select **Windows Sandbox** and then **OK**. Restart the computer if you're prompted.
+
+   - If the **Windows Sandbox** option is unavailable, your computer doesn't meet the requirements to run Windows Sandbox. If you think this is incorrect, review the prerequisite list as well as steps 1 and 2.
+1.   Locate and select **Windows Sandbox** on the Start menu to run it for the first time.
+
+## Usage 
+1. Copy an executable file (and any other files needed to run the application) from the host into the Windows Sandbox window.
+2. Run the executable file or installer inside the sandbox.
+3. When you're finished experimenting, close the sandbox. A dialog box will state that all sandbox content will be discarded and permanently deleted. Select **ok**.
+4. Confirm that your host machine doesn't exhibit any of the modifications that you made in Windows Sandbox.
