You can configure diagnostic data at the Security level, turn off Windows Defender diagnostic data and MSRT reporting, and turn off all other connections to Microsoft network endpoints as described in this article to help prevent Windows from sending any data to Microsoft. There are many reasons why these communications are enabled by default, such as updating malware definitions and maintain current certificate revocation lists, which is why we strongly recommend against this. This data helps us deliver a secure, reliable, and more delightful personalized experience.
To help make it easier to deploy settings to restrict connections from Windows 10 to Microsoft, you can apply the [Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=828887). This baseline was created in the same way as the [Windows security baselines](/windows/device-security/windows-security-baselines) that are often used to efficiently configure Windows to a known secure state. Running the Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline on devices in your organization will allow you to quickly configure all of the settings covered in this document. However, some of the settings reduce the functionality and security configuration of your device and are therefore not recommended. Make sure should you've chosen the right settings configuration for your environment before applying. You should not extract this package to the windows\\system32 folder because it will not apply correctly. Applying this baseline is equivalent to applying the Windows 10 steps covered in this article.
