For more info about ActiveX controls, including how to manage the controls using Group Policy, see [Group Policy and ActiveX installation](ie11-deploy-guide/activex-installation-using-group-policy.md) in the [Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) - Deployment Guide for IT Pros](ie11-deploy-guide/ie11-deployment-guide-for-it-pros.md). + +**Note**
+ActiveX controls are supported in Internet Explorer for the desktop for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. They are not supported on the immersive version of Internet Explorer for Windows 8.1. + +## Scenario 1: Limited Internet-only use of ActiveX controls +While you might not care about your employees using ActiveX controls while on your intranet sites, you probably do want to limit ActiveX usage while your employee is on the Internet. By specifying and pre-approving a set of generic controls for use on the Internet, you’re able to let your employees use the Internet, but you can still limit your company’s exposure to potentially hazardous, non-approved ActiveX controls. + +For example, your employees need to access an important Internet site, such as for a business partner or service provider, but there are ActiveX controls on their page. To make sure the site is accessible and functions the way it should, you can visit the site to review the controls, adding them as new entries to your `\Windows\Downloaded Program Files` folder. Then, as part of your browser package, you can enable and approve these ActiveX controls to run on this specific site; while all additional controls are blocked. + +![](images/wedge.gif) **To add and approve ActiveX controls** + +1. In IE, click **Tools**, and then **Internet Options**. + +2. On the **Security** tab, click the zone that needs to change, and click **Custom Level**. + +3. Go to **Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins**, and then click **Administrator approved**. + +4. Repeat the last two steps until you have configured all the zones you want. + +5. When you run the IEAK 11 Customization Wizard to create a custom package, you'll use the [Additional Settings](additional-settings-ieak11-wizard.md) page, clicking each folder to expand its contents. Then select the check boxes for the controls you want to approve. + +## Scenario 2: Restricted use of ActiveX controls +You can get a higher degree of management over ActiveX controls by listing each of them out and then allowing the browser to use only that set of controls. The biggest challenge to using this method is the extra effort you need to put into figuring out all of the controls, and then actually listing them out. Because of that, we only recommend this approach if your complete set of controls is relatively small. + +After you decide which controls you want to allow, you can specify them as approved by zone, using the process described in the first scenario. + +  + +  + + + + + diff --git a/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/add-root-certificate-ieak11-wizard.md b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/add-root-certificate-ieak11-wizard.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..d83693c6ee --- /dev/null +++ b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/add-root-certificate-ieak11-wizard.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +--- +description: We’re sorry.

For more information, see [Use the Automatic Configuration page in the IEAK 11 Wizard](auto-config-ieak11-wizard.md). + +## Automatic detection on DHCP and DNS servers +Automatic detection works even if the browser wasn't originally set up or installed by the administrator. + +- **Using DHCP servers:** For local area network (LAN)-based users. This server type lets you specify your global and subnet TCP/IP parameters centrally, defining your users' parameters by using reserved addresses. By doing it this way, a computer can move between subnets, automatically reconfiguring for TCP/IP when it starts. +

**Note**
+Your DHCP servers must support the DHCPINFORM message, to obtain the DHCP options.   + +- **Using DNS servers:** For users on dial-up connections. This server type uses a set of protocols and services on a TCP/IP network, which lets users search for other computers by using hierarchical, user-friendly names (hosts), instead of numeric IP addresses. To use this, you have to set up either the host record or the CNAME alias record in the DNS database file. +

**Note**
+DHCP has a higher priority than DNS for automatic configuration. If DHCP provides the URL to a .pac, .jvs, .js, or .ins configuration file, the process stops and the DNS lookup doesn't happen. + +![](images/wedge.gif) **To set up automatic detection for DHCP servers** + +- Open the [DHCP Administrative Tool](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=302212), create a new option type, using the code number 252, and then associate it with the URL to your configuration file. For detailed instructions about how to do this, see [Create an option 252 entry in DHCP](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=294649).

+**Examples:**
+``` +http://www.microsoft.com/webproxy.pac +http://marketing/config.ins +http://###.#.###.#/account.pac +``` +For more detailed info about how to set up your DHCP server, see your server documentation. + +![](images/wedge.gif) **To set up automatic detection for DNS servers** + +1. In your DNS database file, the file that’s used to associate your host (computer) names to static IP addresses in a zone, you need to create a host record named, **WPAD**. This record contains entries for all of the hosts that require static mappings, such as workstations, name servers, and mail servers. It also has the IP address to the web server storing your automatic configuration (.js, .jvs, .pac, or .ins) file.

The syntax is: ` IN A `

+`corserv IN A 192.55.200.143`
+`nameserver2 IN A 192.55.200.2`
+`mailserver1 IN A 192.55.200.51` +

**-OR-**

+Create a canonical name (CNAME) alias record, named **WPAD**. This record lets you use more than one name to point to a single host, letting you host both an FTP server and a web server on the same computer. It also includes the resolved name (not the IP address) of the server storing your automatic configuration (.pac) file.

+**Note**
For more info about creating a **WPAD** entry, see [Creating a WPAD entry in DNS](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=294651).  + +2. After the database file propagates to the server, the DNS name, `wpad..com` resolves to the server name that includes your automatic configuration file. + +**Note**
+IE11 creates a default URL template based on the host name,**wpad**. For example, `http://wpad..com/wpad.dat`. Because of this, you need to set up a file or redirection point in your web server **WPAD** record, named **wpad.dat**. The **wpad.dat** record delivers the contents of your automatic configuration file. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/auto-version-sync-ieak11-wizard.md b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/auto-version-sync-ieak11-wizard.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..645ec153d2 --- /dev/null +++ b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/auto-version-sync-ieak11-wizard.md @@ -0,0 +1,42 @@ +--- +description: How to use the Automatic Version Synchronization page in the IEAK 11 Customization Wizard to download the IE11 Setup file each time you run the Wizard. +ms.assetid: bfc7685f-843b-49c3-8b9b-07e69705840c +author: eross-msft +ms.prod: IE11 +ms.mktglfcycl: deploy +ms.sitesec: library +title: Use the Automatic Version Synchronization page in the IEAK 11 Wizard (Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 for IT Pros) +--- + +# Use the Automatic Version Synchronization page in the IEAK 11 Wizard +The **Automatic Version Synchronization** page of the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard 11 runs the synchronization process every time you run the wizard, downloading the Internet Explorer 11 Setup file to your computer.

However, if the server is outside the firewall, it must connect through a proxy server. Specifically, the `localHostOrDomainIs` function only runs for URLs in the local domain.

However, if the name can’t be resolved, the server must connect through a proxy server. Specifically, this function requests the DNS server to resolve the host name it's passed. If the name can be resolved, a direct connection is made. If it can't, the connection is made using a proxy. This is particularly useful when an internal DNS server is used to resolve all internal host names. + +**Important**
The `isResolvable` function queries a Domain Name System (DNS) server. References to Object Model objects, properties, or methods cause the proxy auto-configuration file to fail silently. For example, the references `window.open(...)`, `alert(...)`, and `password(...)` all cause the proxy auto-configuration file to fail. + +``` javascript +function FindProxyForURL(url, host) + { + if (isResolvable(host)) + return "DIRECT"; + else + return "PROXY proxy:80"; + } +``` + +## Example 4: Connect directly if the host is in specified subnet +In this example, if the host is in a specified subnet, it can connect directly. However, if the server is outside of the specified subnet, it must connect through a proxy server.

The mask indicates which part of the IP address to match (255=match, 0=ignore). + +**Important**
The `isInNet` function queries a DNS server. References to Object Model objects, properties, or methods cause the proxy auto-configuration file to fail silently.

However, if the host isn’t local, this function determines which proxy to use based on the host domain. Specifically, the `shExpMatch(str, shexp)` function returns true if `str` matches the `shexp` using shell expression patterns.

If no protocol match occurs, the server is directly connected. Specifically the `substring` function extracts the specified number of characters from a string. This is particularly useful when protocol is one of the criteria for proxy selection. + +``` javascript +function FindProxyForURL(url, host) + { + if (url.substring(0, 5) == "http:") { + return "PROXY proxy:80"; + } + else if (url.substring(0, 4) == "ftp:") { + return "PROXY fproxy:80"; + } + else if (url.substring(0, 6) == "https:") { + return "PROXY secproxy:8080"; + } + else { + return "DIRECT"; + } + } +``` +## Example 7: Determine the proxy server based on the host name matching the IP address +In this example, the proxy server is selected by translating the host name into an IP address and then comparing the address to a specified string. + +**Important** 
The `dnsResolve` function queries a DNS server. References to Object Model objects, properties, or methods cause the proxy auto-configuration file to fail silently.

If no protocol match occurs, the server makes a direct connection. Specifically, the `myIpAddress` function returns the IP address (in integer-period format) for the host that the browser is running on. + +``` javascript +function FindProxyForURL(url, host) + { + if (myIpAddress() == "999.99.999.99") { + return "PROXY proxy:80"; + } + else { + return "DIRECT"; + } + } +``` +## Example 9: Connect using a proxy server if there are periods in the host name +In this example, the function looks to see if there are periods (.) in the host name. If there are any periods, the connection occurs using a proxy server. If there are no periods, a direct connection occurs.

Connecting on days that don’t fall between the specified date parameters let the server make a direct connection. Specifically the `weekdayRange(day1 [,day2] [,GMT] )` function returns whether the current system time falls within the range specified by the parameters `day1`, `day2`, and `GMT`. Only the first parameter is required. The GMT parameter presumes time values are in Greenwich Mean Time rather than the local time zone. This function is particularly useful for situations where you want to use a proxy server for heavy traffic times, but allow a direct connection when traffic is light. + +``` javascript +function FindProxyForURL(url, host) + { + if(weekdayRange("WED", "SAT", "GMT")) + return "PROXY proxy:80"; + else + return "DIRECT"; + } +``` \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/proxy-ins-file-setting.md b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/proxy-ins-file-setting.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..4e25248bb8 --- /dev/null +++ b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/proxy-ins-file-setting.md @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +--- +description: Use the \[Proxy\] .INS file setting to define whether to use a proxy server. +ms.assetid: 30b03c2f-e3e5-48d2-9007-e3fd632f3c18 +author: eross-msft +ms.prod: IE11 +ms.mktglfcycl: deploy +ms.sitesec: library +title: Use the Proxy .INS file to specify a proxy server (Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 for IT Pros) +--- + +# Use the Proxy .INS file to specify a proxy server +Info about whether to use a proxy server.

For more info, see [Enhanced Protected Mode problems with Internet Explorer](ie11-deploy-guide/enhanced-protected-mode-problems-with-ie11). + +## Certificates and Digital Signatures +Web browsers have security features that help protect users from downloading harmful programs. Depending on the security level and the platform that you are using, the user may be prevented from, or warned against, downloading programs that are not digitally signed. Digital signatures show users where programs come from, verify that the programs have not been altered, and ensure that users do not receive unnecessary warnings when installing the custom browser. + +Because of this, the custom .cab files created by the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard should be signed, unless you pre-configure the Local intranet zone with a Low security setting. Any custom components you distribute with your browser package for these platforms should also be signed. + +### Understanding digital certificates +To sign your package and custom programs digitally, you must first obtain a digital certificate. You can obtain a certificate from a certification authority or a privately-controlled certificate server. For more info about obtaining certificates or setting up a certificate server, see the following: + +- Microsoft-trusted certification authorities ([Windows root certificate program members](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlin/p/?linkid=59547)). + +- Certificates overview documentation ([Certificates](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlin/p/?linkid=68942)). + +- Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services ( [Active Directory Certificate Services](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=259521)). + +- Enterprise public key infrastructure (PKI) snap-in documentation ([Enterprise PKI](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=259526)). + +After you get a certificate, you should note the public and private keys, which are a matched set of keys that are created by the software publisher for encryption and decryption. They are generated on your device at the time the certificate is requested, and your private key is never sent to the certification authority or any other party. + +### Understanding code signing +Code signing varies, depening on how you plan to distribute your custom install package. + +- **If you plan to distribute custom packages over the Internet**, you must sign all custom components and the CMAK profile package (if used). Before you start the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard, make sure that both are signed. Typically, their respective manufacturers will have signed them. Otherwise, you can sign these using the Sign Tool (SignTool.exe) ( [SignTool.exe (Sign Tool)](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=71298)) or use the File Signing Tool (Signcode.exe) ([Signcode.exe (File Signing Tool)](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=71299)). You should read the documentation included with these tools for more info about all of the signing options.

+In addition, after you run the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard, we highly recommend that you sign the IEAK package and the branding.cab file (if you are using it separately from the package). You can do this also using the tools mentioned above. For more information, download Code-Signing Best Practices ([Code-Signing Best Practices](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=71300)). + +- **If you plan to distribute your custom packages over an intranet**, sign the custom files or preconfigure the Local intranet zone with a Low security setting, because the default security setting does not allow users to download unsigned programs or code. + +### Understanding your private key +Your device creates two keys during the enrollment process of your digital certificate. One is a public key, which is sent to anyone you want to communicate with, and one is a private key, which is stored on your local device and must be kept secret. You use the private key to encrypt your data and the corresponding public key to decrypt it. + +You must keep your private key, private. To do this, we recommend: + +- **Separate test and release signing.** Set up a parallel code signing infrastructure, using test certificates created by an internal test root certificate authority. This helps to ensure that your certificates aren’t stored on an insecure build system, reducing the likelihood that they will be compromised. + +- **Tamperproof storage.** Save your private keys on secure, tamper-proof hardware devices. + +- **Security.** Protect your private keys using physical security measures, such as cameras and card readers. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/security-and-privacy-settings-ieak11-wizard.md b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/security-and-privacy-settings-ieak11-wizard.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..7b01f3fc9d --- /dev/null +++ b/browsers/internet-explorer/ie11-ieak/security-and-privacy-settings-ieak11-wizard.md @@ -0,0 +1,37 @@ +--- +description: How to use the Security and Privacy Settings page in the IEAK 11 Customization Wizard to manage your security zones, privacy settings, and content ratings. +ms.assetid: cb7cd1df-6a79-42f6-b3a1-8ae467053f82 +author: eross-msft +ms.prod: IE11 +ms.mktglfcycl: deploy +ms.sitesec: library +title: Use the Security and Privacy Settings page in the IEAK 11 Wizard (Internet Explorer Administration Kit 11 for IT Pros) +--- + +# Use the Security and Privacy Settings page in the IEAK 11 Wizard +The **Security and Privacy Settings** page of the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard 11 lets you manage your security zones, privacy settings, and content ratings.
