# Security and privacy
> [!NOTE]
> You've reached the documentation for Microsoft Edge version 45 and earlier. To see the documentation for Microsoft Edge version 77 or later, go to the [Microsoft Edge documentation landing page](https://docs.microsoft.com/DeployEdge/index?).
Microsoft Edge is designed with improved security in mind, helping to defend people from increasingly sophisticated and prevalent web-based attacks against Windows. Because Microsoft Edge is designed like a Universal Windows app, changing the browser to an app, it fundamentally changes the process model so that both the outer manager process and the different content processes all live within app container sandboxes.
Microsoft Edge runs in 64-bit not just by default, but anytime its running on a 64-bit operating system. Because Microsoft Edge doesnt support legacy ActiveX controls or 3rd-party binary extensions, theres no longer a reason to run 32-bit processes on a 64-bit system.
