| Security capabilities | Description |
|:---|:---|
| Securing user identity with Windows Hello | Windows Hello and Windows Hello for Business replace password-based authentication with a stronger authentication model to sign into your device using a passcode (PIN) or other biometric based authentication. This PIN or biometric based authentication is only valid on the device that you registered it for and cannot be used on another deviceLearn more: [Windows Hello for Business](identity-protection\hello-for-business\hello-overview.md) |
| Credential Guard | Credential Guard helps protects your systems from credential theft attack techniques (pass-the-hash or pass-the-ticket) as well as helping prevent malware from accessing system secrets even if the process is running with admin privileges. Learn more: [Credential Guard](identity-protection/credential-guard/credential-guard-how-it-works.md)|
| Windows Defender Credential Guard and Remote Credential Guard | Windows Defender Credential Guard helps protects your systems from credential theft attack techniques (pass-the-hash or pass-the-ticket) as well as helping prevent malware from accessing system secrets even if the process is running with admin privileges. Windows Defender Remote Credential Guard helps you protect your credentials over a Remote Desktop connection by redirecting Kerberos requests back to the device that's requesting the connection. It also provides single sign-on experiences for Remote Desktop sessions.Learn more: [Protect derived domain credentials with Windows Defender Credential Guard](identity-protection/credential-guard/credential-guard-how-it-works.md) and [Protect Remote Desktop credentials with Windows Defender Remote Credential Guard](identity-protection/remote-credential-guard.md)|
| FIDO Alliance | Fast Identity Online (FIDO) defined protocols are becoming the open standard for providing strong authentication that helps prevent phishing and are user-friendly and privacy-respecting. Windows 11 supports the use of device sign-in with FIDO 2 security keys, and with Microsoft Edge or other modern browsers, supports the use of secure FIDO-backed credentials to keep user accounts protected. Learn more about the [FIDO Alliance](https://fidoalliance.org/). |
| Microsoft Authenticator | The Microsoft Authenticator app is a perfect companion to help keep secure with Windows 11. It allows easy, secure sign-ins for all your online accounts using multi-factor authentication, passwordless phone sign-in, or password autofill. You also have additional account management options for your Microsoft personal, work, or school accounts. Microsoft Authenticator can be used to set up multi-factor authentication for your users.
