Explorer 11. Additionally, if you know that your intranet sites aren't going to work properly with Microsoft Edge, you can set all intranet sites to automatically open using IE11. - -Using Enterprise Mode means that you can continue to use Microsoft Edge as your default browser, while also ensuring that your apps continue working on IE11. - ->[!NOTE] ->If you want to use Group Policy to set Internet Explorer as your default browser, you can find the info here, [Set the default browser using Group Policy]( https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=620714). - -## Fix specific websites - -Microsoft Edge doesn't support ActiveX controls, Browser Helper Objects, VBScript, or other legacy technology. If you have websites or web apps that still use this technology and need IE11, you can add them to the Enterprise Mode site list, using the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager. - -**To add sites to your list** - -1. In the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager, click **Add**.

If you already have an existing site list, you can import it into the tool. After it's in the tool, the xml updates the list, checking **Open in IE** for each site. For info about importing the site list, see [Import your Enterprise Mode site list to the Enterprise Mode Site List Manager](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=618322).

![Enterprise Mode Site List Manager with Open in IE box](images/emie_open_in_ie.png) - -2. Type or paste the URL for the website that’s experiencing compatibility problems, like *<domain>*.com or *<domain>*.com/*<path>* into the **URL** box.

You don’t need to include the `http://` or `https://` designation. The tool will automatically try both versions during validation. - -3. Type any comments about the website into the **Notes about URL** box.

Administrators can only see comments while they’re in this tool. - -4. Click **Open in IE** next to the URL that should automatically open in IE11.

The path within a domain can require a different compatibility mode from the domain itself. For example, the domain might look fine in the default IE11 browser, but the path might have problems and require the use of Enterprise Mode. If you added the domain previously, your original compatibility choice is still selected. However, if the domain is new, Enterprise Mode is automatically selected. - -5. Click **Save** to validate your website and to add it to the site list for your enterprise.

If your site passes validation, it’s added to the global compatibility list. If the site doesn’t pass validation, you’ll get an error message explaining the problem. You’ll then be able to either cancel the site or ignore the validation problem and add it to your list anyway. - -6. On the **File** menu, go to where you want to save the file, and then click **Save to XML**.

You can save the file locally or to a network share. However, you must make sure you deploy it to the location specified in your Group Policy setting. For more info, see [Turn on Enterprise Mode and use a site list](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=618952). - -### Set up Microsoft Edge to use the Enterprise Mode site list - -You must turn on the **Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List** Group Policy setting before Microsoft Edge can use the Enterprise Mode site list. This Group Policy applies to both Microsoft Edge and IE11, letting Microsoft Edge switch to IE11 as needed, based on the Enterprise Mode site list. For more info about IE11 and Enterprise Mode, see [Enterprise Mode for Internet Explorer 11 (IE11)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=618377). - -> **Note**
-> If there’s an .xml file in the cache container, IE waits 65 seconds and then checks the local cache for a newer version of the file from the server, based on standard caching rules. If the server file has a different version number than the version in the cache container, the server file is used and stored in the cache container.

If you’re already using a site list, enterprise mode continues to work during the 65 second wait; it just uses your existing site list instead of your new one. - -**To turn on Enterprise Mode using Group Policy** - -1. Open your Group Policy editor and go to the **Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Microsoft Edge\\Configure the Enterprise Mode Site List** policy.

Turning this setting on also requires you to create and store a site list.

While in reading view, you can also save webpages or PDF files to your reading list, for later viewing. -- **Cortana.** Cortana is automatically enabled on Microsoft Edge. Microsoft Edge lets you highlight words for more info and gives you one-click access to things like restaurant reservations and reviews, without leaving the webpage. -- **Compatibility and security.** Microsoft Edge lets you continue to use IE11 for sites that are on your corporate intranet or that are included on your Enterprise Mode Site List.

Using security features like SmartScreen and Enhanced Protected Mode can help IE11 reduce your risk. -- **Faster.** IE11 is significantly faster than previous versions of Internet Explorer, taking advantage of network optimization and hardware-accelerated text, graphics, and JavaScript rendering. -- **Easier migration to Windows 10.** IE11 is the only version of IE that runs on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10. Upgrading to IE11 on Windows 7 can also help your organization support the next generation of software, services, and devices. -- **Administration.** IE11 can use the Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK) 11 or MSIs for deployment, and includes more than 1,600 Group Policies and preferences for granular control. - -## Related topics -- [Total Economic Impact of Microsoft Edge: Infographic](https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=53892) -- [Web Application Compatibility Lab Kit for Internet Explorer 11](https://technet.microsoft.com/browser/mt612809.aspx) -- [Download Internet Explorer 11](https://windows.microsoft.com/internet-explorer/download-ie) -- [Microsoft Edge - Deployment Guide for IT Pros](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/microsoft-edge/index) -- [Internet Explorer 11 - Deployment Guide for IT Pros](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/internet-explorer/ie11-deploy-guide/index) -- [IEAK 11 - Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 Users Guide](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/index) -- [Internet Explorer 11 - FAQ for IT Pros](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/internet-explorer/ie11-faq/faq-for-it-pros-ie11) diff --git a/browsers/edge/group-policies/address-bar-settings-gp.md b/browsers/edge/group-policies/address-bar-settings-gp.md index 39cc4f17f8..da3686718d 100644 --- a/browsers/edge/group-policies/address-bar-settings-gp.md +++ b/browsers/edge/group-policies/address-bar-settings-gp.md @@ -1,18 +1,26 @@ --- -title: Microsoft Edge - Address bar settings -description: 115-145 characters including spaces.

pashort -author: shortpatti ---- - -# Security enhancements for Microsoft Edge - ->Applies to: Windows 10, Windows 10 Mobile - -Microsoft Edge is designed with improved security in mind, helping to defend people from increasingly sophisticated and prevalent web-based attacks against Windows. - -## Help to protect against web-based security threats -While most websites are safe, some sites have been designed to steal personal information or gain access to your system’s resources. Thieves by nature don’t care about rules, and will use any means to take advantage of victims, most often using trickery or hacking: - -- **Trickery** uses things like “phishing” attacks to convince a person to enter a banking password into a website that looks like the bank, but isn’t. - -- **Hacking** attacks a system through malformed content that exploits subtle flaws in a browser, or in various browser extensions, such as video decoders. This exploit lets an attacker run code on a device, taking over first a browsing session, and perhaps ultimately the entire device. - -While trickery and hacking are threats faced by every browser, it’s important that we explore how Microsoft Edge addresses these threats and is helping make the web a safer experience. - -### Help against trickery -Web browsers can help defend your employees against trickery by identifying and blocking known tricks, and by using strong security protocols to ensure that they’re talking to the web site they think they’re talking to. - -#### Windows Hello -Phishing scams get people to enter passwords into a fake version of a trusted website, such as a bank. Attempts to identify legitimate websites through the HTTPS lock symbol and the EV Cert green bar have met with only limited success, since attackers are too good at faking legitimate experiences for many people to notice the difference. - -To really address this problem, we need to stop people from entering plain-text passwords into websites. So in Windows 10, we gave you [Windows Hello](http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/03/17/making-windows-10-more-personal-and-more-secure-with-windows-hello/) technology with asymmetric cryptography that authenticates both the person and the website. - -Microsoft Edge is the first browser to natively support Windows Hello as a more personal, seamless, and secure way to authenticate on the web, powered by an early implementation of the [Web Authentication (formerly FIDO 2.0 Web API) specification](http://w3c.github.io/webauthn/). - -#### Microsoft SmartScreen -Microsoft SmartScreen, used in Windows 10 and both Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge, helps to defend against phishing by performing reputation checks on visited sites and blocking any sites that are thought to be phishing sites. SmartScreen also helps to defend people against being tricked into installing malicious [socially-engineered software downloads](http://operationstech.about.com/od/glossary/g/Socially-Engineered-Malware.htm and against [drive-by attacks](https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2015/12/16/smartscreen-drive-by-improvements/). Drive-by attacks are malicious web-based attacks that compromise your system by targeting security vulnerabilities in commonly used software, and may be hosted on trusted sites. - -#### Certificate Reputation system -While people trust sites that have encrypted web traffic, that trust can be undermined by malicious sites using improperly obtained or fake certificates to impersonate legitimate sites. To help address this problem, we introduced the [Certificate Reputation system](https://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2014/03/10/certificate-reputation-a-novel-approach-for-protecting-users-from-fraudulent-certificates.aspx) last year. This year, we’ve extended the system to let web developers use the [Bing Webmaster Tools](http://www.bing.com/toolbox/webmaster) to report directly to Microsoft to let us know about fake certificates. - -### Help against hacking -While Microsoft Edge has done much to help defend against trickery, the browser’s “engine” has also been overhauled to resist hacking (attempts to corrupt the browser itself) including a major overhaul of the DOM representation in the browser’s memory, and the security mitigations described here. - -#### Microsoft EdgeHTML and modern web standards -Microsoft Edge has a new rendering engine, Microsoft EdgeHTML, which is focused on modern standards that let web developers build and maintain a consistent site across all modern browsers. - -The Microsoft EdgeHTML engine also helps to defend against hacking through these new security standards features: - -- Support for the W3C standard for [Content Security Policy (CSP)](https://developer.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/platform/documentation/dev-guide/security/content-Security-Policy), which can help web developers defend their sites against cross-site scripting attacks. - -- Support for the [HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)](https://developer.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/platform/documentation/dev-guide/security/HSTS/) security feature (IETF-standard compliant). This helps ensure that connections to important sites, such as to your bank, are always secured. - ->[!NOTE] ->Both Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer 11 support HSTS. - -#### All web content runs in an app container sandbox -Internet Explorer 7 on Windows Vista was the first web browser to provide a browsing sandbox, called [Protected Mode](https://windows.microsoft.com/windows-vista/What-does-Internet-Explorer-protected-mode-do). Protected Mode forced the part of the browser that rendered web content to run with less privilege than the browser controls or the user, providing a level of isolation and protection should a malicious website attempt to exploit a bug in the browser or one of its plug-ins. - -Internet Explorer 10 introduced Enhanced Protected Mode (EPM), based on the Windows 8 app container technology, providing a stronger sandbox by adding deny-by-default and no-read-up semantics. EPM was turned on by default in the Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 immersive browser, but was optional on the Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11 desktop versions. - -Microsoft Edge takes the sandbox even farther, running its content processes in app containers not just by default, but all of the time. Because Microsoft Edge doesn’t support 3rd party binary extensions, there’s no reason for it to run outside of the containers, ensuring that Microsoft Edge is more secure. - -#### Microsoft Edge is now a 64-bit app -The largest security change to Microsoft Edge is that it's designed like a Universal Windows app. By changing the browser to an app, it fundamentally changes the process model so that both the outer manager process and the assorted content processes all live within app container sandboxes; helping to provide the user and the platform with the [confidence](https://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2012/05/17/delivering-reliable-and-trustworthy-metro-style-apps.aspx) provided by other Microsoft Store apps. - -##### 64-bit processes and Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) -Microsoft Edge runs in 64-bit not just by default, but anytime it’s running on a 64-bit operating system. Because Microsoft Edge doesn’t support legacy ActiveX controls or 3rd-party binary extensions, there’s no longer a reason to run 32-bit processes on a 64-bit system. - -The value of running 64-bit all the time is that it strengthens Windows Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). ASLR randomizes the memory layout of the browser processes, making it much harder for attackers to hit precise memory locations. In turn, 64-bit processes make ASLR much more effective by making the address space exponentially larger and, therefore, more difficult for attackers to find the sensitive memory components they’re looking for. - -#### New extension model and HTML5 support -Back in 1996, we introduced ActiveX for web browser extensions in an attempt to let 3rd parties experiment with various forms of alternate content on the web. However, we quickly learned that browser extensions can come at a cost of security and reliability. For example, binary extensions can bring code and data into the browser’s processes without any protection, meaning that if anything goes wrong, the entire browser itself can be compromised or go down. - -Based on that learning, we’ve stopped supporting binary extensions in Microsoft Edge and instead encourage everyone to use our new, scripted HTML5-based extension model. For more info about the new extensions, see the [Microsoft Edge Developer Center](https://developer.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/extensions/). - -#### Reduced attack surfaces -In addition to removing support for VBScript, Jscript, VML, Browser Helper Objects, Toolbars, and ActiveX controls, Microsoft Edge also removed support for legacy Internet Explorer [document modes](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/jj676915.aspx). Because many IE browser vulnerabilities are only present in legacy document modes, removing support for document modes significantly reduces attack surface, making the browser much more secure than before. However, it also means that it’s not as backward compatible. - -Because of the reduced backward compatibility, we’ve given Microsoft Edge the ability to automatically fall back to Internet Explorer 11, using the Enterprise Mode Site List, for any apps that need backward compatibility. - -#### Code integrity and image loading restrictions -Microsoft Edge content processes support code integrity and image load restrictions, helping to prevent malicious DLLs from loading or being injected into the content processes. Only [properly signed images](https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2015/11/17/microsoft-edge-module-code-integrity/) are allowed to load into Microsoft Edge. Binaries on remote devices (such as, UNC or WebDAV) can’t be loaded. - -#### Memory corruption mitigations -Memory corruption happens most frequently to apps written in C or C++ because those languages don’t provide type safety or buffer overflow protection. Broadly speaking, memory corruption attacks happen when an attacker provides malformed input to a program and the program can’t handle it, corrupting the program’s memory state and allowing the attacker to take control of the program. - -Over the years, a broad variety of mitigations have been created around memory corruption, but even as these mitigations roll out, attackers adapt and invent new ways to attack. At the same time, we’ve responded with new memory safety defenses, mitigating the most common new forms of attack, including and especially [use-after-free (UAF)](http://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/416.html) vulnerabilities. - -##### Memory Garbage Collector (MemGC) mitigation -MemGC is the replacement for Memory Protector, currently turned on for both Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 and Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 7 and newer operating systems. MemGC is a memory garbage collection system that helps to defend the browser from UAF vulnerabilities by taking the responsibility for freeing memory away from the programmer and instead automating it, only freeing memory when the automation detects that there are no more references left pointing to a given block of memory. - -##### Control Flow Guard -Ultimately, attackers use memory corruption attacks to gain control of the CPU program counter so that they can jump to any code location they want. Control Flow Guard is a Microsoft Visual Studio technology that compiles checks around code that performs indirect jumps based on a pointer, restricting those jumps to only go to function entry points with known addresses. This makes attacker take-overs much more difficult by severely constraining where a memory corruption attack can jump to. - -#### Designed for security -We’ve spent countless hours reviewing, testing, and using Microsoft Edge to make sure that you’re more protected than ever before. - -##### Fuzzing/Static Analysis -We’ve devoted more than 670 machine-years to fuzz testing Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer during product development, including monitoring for possible exceptions such as crashes or memory leaks. We’ve also generated more than 400-billion DOM manipulations from 1-billion HTML files. Because of all of this, hundreds of security issues were addressed before the product shipped. - -##### Code Review & Penetration Testing -Over 70 end-to-end security engagements reviewed all key features, helping to address security implementation and design issues before shipping. - -##### Windows REDTEAM -The Windows REDTEAM emulates the techniques and expertise of skilled, real-world attackers. Exploited Microsoft Edge vulnerabilities discovered through penetration testing can be addressed before public discovery and real-world exploits. - - - - - - - - - - diff --git a/browsers/edge/shortdesc/allow-a-shared-books-folder-shortdesc.md b/browsers/edge/shortdesc/allow-a-shared-books-folder-shortdesc.md index 19e8c5a8a4..7eb5da6bd4 100644 --- a/browsers/edge/shortdesc/allow-a-shared-books-folder-shortdesc.md +++ b/browsers/edge/shortdesc/allow-a-shared-books-folder-shortdesc.md @@ -1 +1,9 @@ -Microsoft Edge does not use a shared folder by default but downloads book files to a per-user folder for each user.

[LimitEnhancedDiagnosticDataWindowsAnalytics](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-system#system-limitenhanceddiagnosticdatawindowsanalytics) | This policy setting, in combination with the System/AllowTelemetry policy setting, enables organizations to send Microsoft a specific set of diagnostic data for IT insights via Windows Analytics services. To enable this behavior you must enable this policy setting, and set Allow Telemetry to level 2 (Enhanced). When you configure these policy settings, a basic level of diagnostic data plus additional events that are required for Windows Analytics are sent to Microsoft. These events are documented in [Windows 10, version 1703 basic level Windows diagnostic events and fields](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=847594). Enabling enhanced diagnostic data in the System/AllowTelemetry policy in combination with not configuring this policy will also send the required events for Windows Analytics, plus additional enhanced level diagnostic data. This setting has no effect on computers configured to send full, basic or security level diagnostic data to Microsoft. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, then the level of diagnostic data sent to Microsoft is determined by the System/AllowTelemetry policy. | X | X | | | | @@ -418,98 +452,106 @@ ConfigureTelemetryOptInSettingsUx | This policy setting determines whether peopl | Setting | Description | Desktop editions | Mobile editions | Surface Hub | HoloLens | IoT Core | | --- | --- | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | -| [AllowIMELogging](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowimelogging) | Allow the user to turn on and off the logging for incorrect conversion and saving auto-tuning result to a file and history-based predictive input. | X | | | | | -| [AllowIMENetworkAccess](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowimenetworkaccess) | Allow the user to turn on Open Extended Dictionary, Internet search integration, or cloud candidate features to provide input suggestions that do not exist in the device's local dictionary. | X | | | | | -| [AllowInputPanel](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowinputpanel) | Disable the touch/handwriting keyboard. | X | | | | | -| [AllowJapaneseIMESurrogatePairCharacters](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowjapaneseimesurrogatepaircharacters) | Allow the Japanese IME surrogate pair characters. | X | | | | | -| [AllowJapaneseIVSCharacters](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowjapaneseivscharacters) | Allow Japanese Ideographic Variation Sequence (IVS) characters. | X | | | | | -| [AllJapaneseNonPublishingStandardGlyph](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowjapanesenonpublishingstandardglyph) | All the Japanese non-publishing standard glyph. | X | | | | | -| [AllowJapaneseUserDictionary](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowjapaneseuserdictionary) | Allow the Japanese user dictionary. | X | | | | | -| [AllowKeyboardTextSuggestions](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowkeyboardtextsuggestions) | Specify whether text prediction is enabled or disabled for the on-screen keyboard, touch keyboard, and handwriting recognition tool. | X | | | | | -| [AllowLanguageFeaturesUninstall](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/commercialize/customize/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider#textinput-allowlanguagefeaturesuninstall) | All language features to be uninstalled. | X | | | | | -| AllowUserInputsFromMiracastRecevier | Do not use.
