- - **Windows 8.1** added support for a Windows 8.1 Pro to Windows 8.1 Enterprise in-place upgrade (considered a “repair upgrade” because the OS version was the same before and after).  This was a lot easier than wipe-and-load, but it was still time-consuming.
- - **Windows 10, version 1507** added the ability to install a new product key using a provisioning package or using MDM to change the SKU.  This required a reboot, which would install the new OS components, and took several minutes to complete. However, it was a lot quicker than in-place upgrade.
- - **Windows 10, version 1607** made a big leap forward. Now you can just change the product key and the SKU instantly changes from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise.  In addition to provisioning packages and MDM, you can just inject a key using SLMGR.VBS (which injects the key into WMI), so it became trivial to do this using a command line.
- - **Windows 10, version 1703** made this “step-up” from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise automatic for those that subscribed to Windows 10 Enterprise E3 or E5 via the CSP program.
- - **Windows 10, version 1709** adds support for Windows 10 Subscription Activation, very similar to the CSP support but for large enterprises, enabling the use of Azure AD for assigning licenses to users.

This can include “code injection” attacks, in which attackers insert malicious code that can tamper with data, or even destroy it. An application may have its security misconfigured, leaving open doors for hackers. Or vital customer and corporate information may leave sensitive data exposed. Windows protects your valuable data with layers of application security. + +The following table summarizes the Windows security features and capabilities for apps:

+ +| Security Measures | Features & Capabilities | +|:---|:---| +| Windows Defender Application Control | Application control is one of the most effective security controls to prevent unwanted or malicious code from running. It moves away from an application trust model where all code is assumed trustworthy to one where apps must earn trust to run. Learn more: [Application Control for Windows](threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/windows-defender-application-control.md) | +| Microsoft Defender Application Guard | Application Guard uses chip-based hardware isolation to isolate untrusted websites and untrusted Office files, seamlessly running untrusted websites and files in an isolated Hyper-V-based container, separate from the desktop operating system, and making sure that anything that happens within the container remains isolated from the desktop. Learn more [Microsoft Defender Application Guard overview](threat-protection/microsoft-defender-application-guard/md-app-guard-overview.md). | +| 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. Learn more: [Windows Sandbox](threat-protection\windows-sandbox\windows-sandbox-overview.md) +| Email Security | With Windows S/MIME email security, users can encrypt outgoing messages and attachments, so only intended recipients with digital identification (ID)—also called a certificate—can read them. Users can digitally sign a message, which verifies the identity of the sender and ensures the message has not been tampered with.[Configure S/MIME for Windows 10](identity-protection/configure-s-mime.md) | +| Microsoft Defender SmartScreen | Microsoft Defender SmartScreen protects against phishing or malware websites and applications, and the downloading of potentially malicious files.

With the growth of enterprise cloud adoption, increased personal app usage, and increased use of third-party apps, the risk of data exposure is at its highest. Enabling Zero-Trust protection, Windows 11 works with Microsoft cloud services. Windows and cloud services together help organizations strengthen their multi-cloud security infrastructure, protect hybrid cloud workloads, and safeguard sensitive information while controlling access and mitigating threats. + +Windows 11 includes the cloud services that are listed in the following table:

+ +| Service type | Description | +|:---|:---| +| Mobile device management (MDM) and Microsoft Endpoint Manager | Windows 11 supports MDM, an enterprise management solution to help you manage your organization's security policies and business applications. MDM enables your security team to manage devices without compromising people's privacy on their personal devices.

Non-Microsoft servers can be used to manage Windows 11 by using industry standard protocols.

To learn more, see [Mobile device management](/windows/client-management/mdm/). | +| Microsoft account | When users add their Microsoft account to Windows 11, they can bring their Windows, Microsoft Edge, Xbox settings, web page favorites, files, photos, and more across their devices.

The Microsoft account enables people to manage everything in one place. They can keep tabs on their subscriptions and order history, organize their family's digital life, update their privacy and security settings, track the health and safety of their devices, and even get rewards.

To learn more, see [Microsoft Accounts](identity-protection/access-control/microsoft-accounts.md).| +| OneDrive | OneDrive is your online storage for your files, photos, and data. OneDrive provides extra security, backup, and restore options for important files and photos. With options for both personal and business, people can use OneDrive to store and protect files in the cloud, allowing users to them on their laptops, desktops, and mobile devices. If a device is lost or stolen, people can quickly recover all their important files, photos, and data.

The OneDrive Personal Vault also provides protection for your most sensitive files without losing the convenience of anywhere access. Files are secured by identity verification, yet easily accessible to users across their devices.

Application developers can use these APIs to perform low-level cryptographic operations (BCrypt), key storage operations (NCrypt), protect static data (DPAPI), and securely share secrets (DPAPI-NG). + +## Certificate management + +Windows offers several APIs to operate and manage certificates. Certificates are crucial to public key infrastructure (PKI) as they provide the means for safeguarding and authenticating information. Certificates are electronic documents used to claim ownership of a public key. Public keys are used to prove server and client identity, validate code integrity, and used in secure emails. Windows offers users the ability to auto-enroll and renew certificates in Active Directory with Group Policy to reduce the risk of potential outages due to certificate expiration or misconfiguration. Windows validates certificates through an automatic update mechanism that downloads certificate trust lists (CTL) daily. Trusted root certificates are used by applications as a reference for trustworthy PKI hierarchies and digital certificates. The list of trusted and untrusted certificates are stored in the CTL and can be updated by administrators. In the case of certificate revocation, a certificate is added as an untrusted certificate in the CTL causing it to be revoked globally across user devices immediately. + +Windows also offers enterprise certificate pinning to help reduce man-in-the-middle attacks by enabling users to protect their internal domain names from chaining to unwanted certificates. A web application's server authentication certificate chain is checked to ensure it matches a restricted set of certificates. Any web application triggering a name mismatch will start event logging and prevent user access from Edge or Internet Explorer. diff --git a/windows/security/docfx.json b/windows/security/docfx.json index 3a997cd1e9..d1a625e8bd 100644 --- a/windows/security/docfx.json +++ b/windows/security/docfx.json @@ -48,7 +48,7 @@ "folder_relative_path_in_docset": "./" } }, - "titleSuffix": "Microsoft 365 Security", + "titleSuffix": "Windows security", "contributors_to_exclude": [ "rjagiewich", "traya1", diff --git a/windows/security/encryption-data-protection.md b/windows/security/encryption-data-protection.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..359afde71f --- /dev/null +++ b/windows/security/encryption-data-protection.md @@ -0,0 +1,54 @@ +--- +title: Encryption and data protection in Windows +description: Get an overview encryption and data protection in Windows 11 and Windows 10 +search.appverid: MET150 +author: denisebmsft +ms.author: deniseb +manager: dansimp +audience: ITPro +ms.topic: conceptual +ms.date: 09/08/2021 +ms.prod: m365-security +ms.technology: windows-sec +ms.localizationpriority: medium +ms.collection: +ms.custom: +ms.reviewer: deepakm, rafals +f1.keywords: NOCSH +--- + +# Encryption and data protection in Windows client + +When people travel with their computers and devices, their confidential information travels with them.

In the Windows Device Security settings, HVCI is referred to as Memory Integrity.
HVCI and VBS improve the threat model of Windows and provide stronger protections against malware trying to exploit the Windows Kernel. VBS uses the Windows Hypervisor to create an isolated virtual environment that becomes the root of trust of the OS that assumes the kernel can be compromised. HVCI is a critical component that protects and hardens this virtual environment by running kernel mode code integrity within it and restricting kernel memory allocations that could be used to compromise the system.

  • Fast Reconnect: reduces the delay between an authentication request by a client and the response by the Network Policy Server (NPS) or other Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) server. This reduces resource requirements for both client and server, and minimizes the number of times that users are prompted for credentials.
  • Cryptobinding: By deriving and exchanging values from the PEAP phase 1 key material (Tunnel Key) and from the PEAP phase 2 inner EAP method key material (Inner Session Key), it is possible to prove that the two authentications terminate at the same two entities (PEAP peer and PEAP server). This process, termed "cryptobinding", is used to protect the PEAP negotiation against "Man in the Middle" attacks.

Except for apps that businesses develop and use internally, all Microsoft Store apps must meet a series of requirements to be certified and included in the Microsoft Store. This certification process examines several criteria, including security, and is an effective means of preventing malware from entering the Microsoft Store. Even if a malicious app does get through, the Windows 10 operating system includes a series of security features that can mitigate the impact. For instance, Microsoft Store apps are sandboxed and lack the privileges necessary to access user data or change system settings. -Windows has multiple levels of protection for desktop apps and data, too. Windows Defender uses signatures to detect and quarantine apps that are known to be malicious.

Windows Defender Antivirus uses cloud-powered real-time detection to identify and quarantine apps that are known to be malicious. Windows Defender SmartScreen warns users before allowing them to run an untrustworthy app, even if it’s recognized as malware. Before an app can change system settings, the user would have to grant the app administrative privileges by using User Account Control. Those are just some of the ways that Windows protects you from malware. However, those security features protect you only after Windows starts.

| +| Security baselines | A security baseline is a group of Microsoft-recommended configuration settings that explains their security impact. These settings are based on feedback from Microsoft security engineering teams, product groups, partners, and customers.

Security baselines are included in the [Security Compliance Toolkit](threat-protection/windows-security-configuration-framework/security-compliance-toolkit-10.md) that you can download from the Microsoft Download Center.

Learn more about [security baselines](threat-protection/windows-security-configuration-framework/windows-security-baselines.md). | +| Virtual Private Network | Virtual private networks (VPNs) are point-to-point connections across a private or public network, such as the Internet. A VPN client uses special TCP/IP or UDP-based protocols, called tunneling protocols, to make a virtual call to a virtual port on a VPN server.

Learn more about [Virtual Private Networks](identity-protection/vpn/vpn-guide.md).

| +| Windows Defender Firewall | Windows Defender Firewall is a stateful host firewall that helps secure the device by allowing you to create rules that determine which network traffic is permitted to enter the device from the network and which network traffic the device is allowed to send to the network. Windows Defender Firewall also supports Internet Protocol security (IPsec), which you can use to require authentication from any device that is attempting to communicate with your device.

Learn more about [Windows Defender Firewall with advanced security](threat-protection/windows-firewall/windows-firewall-with-advanced-security.md).

+| Antivirus & antimalware protection | Microsoft Defender Antivirus is included in all versions of Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 and later, and Windows 11. If you have another antivirus app installed and turned on, Microsoft Defender Antivirus will turn off automatically. If you uninstall the other app, Microsoft Defender Antivirus will turn back on.

From the moment you boot Windows, Microsoft Defender Antivirus continually monitors for malware, viruses, and security threats. Updates are downloaded automatically to help protect your device from threats. Microsoft Defender Antivirus continually scans for malware and threats, and also detects and blocks [potentially unwanted applications](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/detect-block-potentially-unwanted-apps-microsoft-defender-antivirus) (applications that can negatively impact your device even though they are not considered malware).

Microsoft Defender Antivirus integrates with [cloud-delivered protection](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/cloud-protection-microsoft-defender-antivirus), which helps ensure near-instant detection and blocking of new and emerging threats.

Learn more about [next-generation protection and Microsoft Defender Antivirus](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/microsoft-defender-antivirus-windows).| +| Attack surface reduction rules | Your attack surfaces are the places and ways you are vulnerable to a cyber attack. Attack surface reduction rules are built into Windows and Windows Server to prevent and block certain behaviors that are often abused to compromise your device or network. Such behaviors can include launching scripts or executables that attempt to download or run other files, running suspicious scripts, or performing other behaviors that apps don't typically initiate during normal work. You can configure your attack surface reduction rules to protect against these risky behaviors.

Learn more about [Attack surface reduction rules](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/attack-surface-reduction) | +| Anti-tampering protection | During cyber attacks (like ransomware attempts), bad actors attempt to disable security features, such as antivirus protection on targeted devices. Bad actors like to disable security features to get easier access to user’s data, to install malware, or to otherwise exploit user’s data, identity, and devices without fear of being blocked. Tamper protection helps prevent these kinds of activities.

With tamper protection, malware is prevented from taking actions such as:
- Disabling virus and threat protection
- Disabling real-time protection
- Turning off behavior monitoring
- Disabling antivirus (such as IOfficeAntivirus (IOAV))
- Disabling cloud-delivered protection
- Removing security intelligence updates

Learn more about [Tamper protection](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/prevent-changes-to-security-settings-with-tamper-protection). | +| Network protection | Network protection in Windows helps prevent users from accessing dangerous IP addresses and domains that may host phishing scams, exploits, and other malicious content on the Internet. Network protection is part of attack surface reduction and helps provide an extra layer of protection for a user. Using reputation-based services, network protection blocks access to potentially harmful, low-reputation based domains and IP addresses.

In enterprise environments, network protection works best with [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/), which provides detailed reporting into protection events as part of larger investigation scenarios.

Learn more about [Network protection](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/network-protection). | +| Controlled folder access | With controlled folder access, you can protect your valuable information in specific folders by managing apps’ access to specific folders. Only trusted apps can access protected folders, which are specified when controlled folder access is configured. Typically, commonly used folders, such as those used for documents, pictures, downloads, are included in the list of controlled folders. Controlled folder access helps protect valuable data from malicious apps and threats, such as ransomware.

Learn more about [Controlled folder access](/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/controlled-folders). | +| Exploit protection | Exploit protection, available in Windows 10, version 1709 and later, automatically applies several exploit mitigation techniques to operating system processes and apps. Exploit protection works best with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, which gives organizations detailed reporting into exploit protection events and blocks as part of typical alert investigation scenarios.

You can enable exploit protection on an individual device, and then use Group Policy to distribute the XML file to multiple devices simultaneously. When a mitigation is encountered on the device, a notification will be displayed from the Action Center. You can customize the notification with your company details and contact information. You can also enable the rules individually to customize which techniques the feature monitors.

HVCI is referred to as Memory Integrity under the Core Isolation section of the Windows security settings. Computers lacking these requirements can still be protected by Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) policies—the difference is that those computers will not be as hardened against certain threats. For example, hardware that includes CPU virtualization extensions and SLAT will be hardened against malware that attempts to gain access to the kernel, but without protected BIOS options such as “Boot only from internal hard drive,” the computer could be booted (by a malicious person who has physical access) into an operating system on bootable media. > [!WARNING] > Virtualization-based protection of code integrity may be incompatible with some devices and applications. We strongly recommend testing this configuration in your lab before enabling virtualization-based protection of code integrity on production systems. Failure to do so may result in unexpected failures up to and including data loss or a blue screen error (also called a stop error). -The following tables provide more information about the hardware, firmware, and software required for deployment of various Windows Defender Device Guard features.

UEFI runtime service code must support read-only page protections, and UEFI runtime service data must not be executable.
• UEFI runtime service must meet these requirements:
    • Implement UEFI 2.6 EFI_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE. All UEFI runtime service memory (code and data) must be described by this table.
    • PE sections need to be page-aligned in memory (not required for in non-volitile storage).
    • The Memory Attributes Table needs to correctly mark code and data as RO/NX for configuration by the OS:
        • All entries must include attributes EFI_MEMORY_RO, EFI_MEMORY_XP, or both
        • No entries may be left with neither of the above attributes, indicating memory that is both executable and writable. Memory must be either readable and executable or writeable and non-executable.

Notes:
• This only applies to UEFI runtime service memory, and not UEFI boot service memory.
• This protection is applied by VBS on OS page tables.


Please also note the following:
• Do not use sections that are both writeable and executable
• Do not attempt to directly modify executable system memory

Catalog files can be important in your deployment of Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) if you have unsigned line-of-business (LOB) applications for which the process of signing is difficult. To prepare to create WDAC policies that allow these trusted applications but block unsigned code (most malware is unsigned), you create a *catalog file* that contains information about the trusted applications. After you sign and distribute the catalog, your trusted applications can be handled by WDAC in the same way as any other signed application. With this foundation, you can more easily block all unsigned applications, allowing only signed applications to run. diff --git a/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-multiple-windows-defender-application-control-policies.md b/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-multiple-windows-defender-application-control-policies.md index 9ea7cc663a..96abd74691 100644 --- a/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-multiple-windows-defender-application-control-policies.md +++ b/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-multiple-windows-defender-application-control-policies.md @@ -27,7 +27,7 @@ ms.technology: mde - Windows Server 2016 and above >[!NOTE] ->Some capabilities of Windows Defender Application Control are only available on specific Windows versions.

Signed WDAC policies give organizations the highest level of malware protection available in Windows.

Secure Boot makes a safe and trusted path from the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) through the Windows kernel's Trusted Boot sequence. Malware attacks on the Windows boot sequence are blocked by the signature-enforcement handshakes throughout the boot sequence between the UEFI, bootloader, kernel, and application environments. + +As the PC begins the boot process, it will first verify that the firmware is digitally signed, reducing the risk of firmware rootkits.

The Windows bootloader verifies the digital signature of the Windows kernel before loading it. The Windows kernel, in turn, verifies every other component of the Windows startup process, including boot drivers, startup files, and your antimalware product’s early-launch antimalware (ELAM) driver. If any of these files were tampered, the bootloader detects the problem and refuses to load the corrupted component. Tampering or malware attacks on the Windows boot sequence are blocked by the signature-enforcement handshakes between the UEFI, bootloader, kernel, and application environments. + +Often, Windows can automatically repair the corrupted component, restoring the integrity of Windows and allowing the Windows 11 device to start normally. + +## See also + +[Secure the Windows boot process](information-protection/secure-the-windows-10-boot-process.md) \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/windows/security/zero-trust-windows-device-health.md b/windows/security/zero-trust-windows-device-health.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..1462084e1e --- /dev/null +++ b/windows/security/zero-trust-windows-device-health.md @@ -0,0 +1,71 @@ +--- +title: Zero Trust and Windows device health +description: Describes the process of Windows device health attestation +ms.reviewer: +ms.topic: article +manager: dansimp +ms.author: dansimp +ms.mktglfcycl: deploy +ms.sitesec: library +ms.pagetype: security +author: dansimp +ms.collection: M365-security-compliance +ms.prod: m365-security +ms.technology: windows-sec +--- + +# Zero Trust and Windows device health +Organizations need a security model that more effectively adapts to the complexity of the modern work environment. IT admins need to embrace the hybrid workplace, while protecting people, devices, apps, and data wherever they’re located. Implementing a Zero Trust model for security helps addresses today's complex environments. + +The [Zero Trust](https://www.microsoft.com/security/business/zero-trust) principles are: + +- **Verify explicitly**. Always authenticate and authorize based on all available data points, including user identity, location, device health, service or workload, data classification, and monitor anomalies. + +- **Use least-privileged access**. Limit user access with just-in-time and just-enough-access, risk-based adaptive policies, and data protection to help secure data and maintain productivity. + +- **Assume breach**. Prevent attackers from obtaining access to minimize potential damage to data and systems. Protect privileged roles, verify end-to-end encryption, use analytics to get visibility, and drive threat detection to improve defenses. + +The Zero Trust concept of **verify explicitly** applies to the risks introduced by both devices and users. Windows enables **device health attestation** and **conditional access** capabilities, which are used to grant access to corporate resources. + +[Conditional access](/azure/active-directory/conditional-access/overview) evaluates identity signals to confirm that users are who they say they are before they are granted access to corporate resources. + +Windows 11 supports device health attestation, helping to confirm that devices are in a good state and have not been tampered with. This capability helps users access corporate resources whether they’re in the office, at home, or when they’re traveling. + +Attestation helps verify the identity and status of essential components and that the device, firmware, and boot process have not been altered. Information about the firmware, boot process, and software, is used to validate the security state of the device. This information is cryptographically stored in the security co-processor Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Once the device is attested, it can be granted access to resources. + +## Device health attestation on Windows + Many security risks can emerge during the boot process as this process can be the most privileged component of the whole system. The verification process uses remote attestation as the secure channel to determine and present the device’s health. Remote attestation determines: + +- If the device can be trusted +- If the operating system booted correctly +- If the OS has the right set of security features enabled + +These determinations are made with the help of a secure root of trust using the Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Devices can attest that the TPM is enabled, and that the device has not been tampered with. + +Windows includes many security features to help protect users from malware and attacks. However, trusting the Windows security components can only be achieved if the platform boots as expected and was not tampered with. Windows relies on Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Secure Boot, Early-launch antimalware (ELAM), Dynamic Root of Trust for Measurement (DRTM), Trusted Boot, and other low-level hardware and firmware security features. When you power on your PC until your anti-malware starts, Windows is backed with the appropriate hardware configuration to help keep you safe. [Measured and Trusted boot](information-protection/secure-the-windows-10-boot-process.md), implemented by bootloaders and BIOS, verifies and cryptographically records each step of the boot in a chained manner. These events are bound to a security coprocessor (TPM) that acts as the Root of Trust. Remote Attestation is the mechanism by which these events are read and verified by a service to provide a verifiable, unbiased, and tamper resilient report. Remote attestation is the trusted auditor of your system's boot, allowing specific entities to trust the device. + +A summary of the steps involved in attestation and Zero Trust on the device side are as follows: + +1. During each step of the boot process, such as a file load, update of special variables, and more, information such as file hashes and signature are measured in the TPM PCRs. The measurements are bound by a [Trusted Computing Group specification](https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/pc-client-platform-tpm-profile-ptp-specification/) (TCG) that dictates what events can be recorded and the format of each event. + +2. Once Windows has booted, the attestor/verifier requests the TPM to fetch the measurements stored in its Platform Configuration Register (PCR) alongside a TCG log. Both of these together form the attestation evidence that is then sent to the attestation service. + +3. The TPM is verified by using the keys/cryptographic material available on the chipset with an [Azure Certificate Service](/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/manage/component-updates/tpm-key-attestation). + +4. This information is then sent to the attestation service in the cloud to verify that the device is safe. Microsoft Endpoint Manger (MEM) integrates with Microsoft Azure Attestation to review device health comprehensively and connect this information with AAD conditional access. This integration is key for Zero Trust solutions that help bind trust to an untrusted device. + +5. The attestation service does the following: + + - Verify the integrity of the evidence. This is done by validating the PCRs that match the values recomputed by replaying the TCG log. + - Verify that the TPM has a valid Attestation Identity Key issued by the authenticated TPM. + - Verify that the security features are in the expected states. + +6. The attestation service returns an attestation report that contains information about the security features based on the policy configured in the attestation service. + +7. The device then sends the report to the MEM cloud to assess the trustworthiness of the platform according to the admin-configured device compliance rules. + +8.
