These document modes could be requested via the x-ua-compatible header to put the browser into a mode which emulates legacy versions. |Similar to other modern browsers, Microsoft Edge has a single “living” document mode. To minimize the compatibility burden, we test features behind switches in about:flags until stable and ready to be turned on by default. | - -## Enterprise guidance -Microsoft Edge is the default browser experience for Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile. However, if you're running web apps that rely on ActiveX controls, continue using Internet Explorer 11 for the web apps to work correctly. If you don't have IE11 installed anymore, you can download it from the Microsoft Store or the [Internet Explorer 11 download page](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=290956). Also, if you use an earlier version of Internet Explorer, upgrade to IE11. - -Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 support IE11 so that you can continue using legacy apps even as you migrate to Windows 10 and Microsoft Edge. - -If you're having trouble deciding whether Microsoft Edge is right for your organization, then take a look at the infographic about the potential impact of using Microsoft Edge in an organization. - -![Microsoft Edge infographic](images/microsoft-edge-infographic-sm.png)

This exploit lets an attacker run code on a device, taking over a browsing session, and perhaps the entire device. - -Microsoft Edge addresses these threats to help make browsing the web a safer experience. - - -| Feature | Description | -|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| -| **[Windows Hello](https://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/03/17/making-windows-10-more-personal-and-more-secure-with-windows-hello/)** | Microsoft Edge is the first browser to natively support Windows Hello to authenticate the user and the website with asymmetric cryptography technology, powered by early implementation of the [Web Authentication (formerly FIDO 2.0 Web API) specification](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/). | -| **Microsoft SmartScreen** | Defends against phishing by performing reputation checks on sites visited and blocking any sites that are thought to be a phishing site. SmartScreen also helps to defend against installing malicious software, drive-by attacks, or file downloads, even from trusted sites. 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** | Collects data about certificates in use, detecting new certificates and flagging fraudulent certificates automatically, and sends the data to Microsoft. The systems and tools in place include | -| **Microsoft EdgeHTML and modern web standards** | Microsoft Edge uses Microsoft EdgeHTML as the rendering engine. This engine focuses on modern standards letting web developers build and maintain a consistent site across all modern browsers. It also helps to defend against hacking through these security standards features:

**NOTE:** Both Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer 11 support HSTS. | -| **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 injecting 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 load. | -| **Memory corruption mitigations** | Memory corruption attacks frequently happen to apps written in C or C++ don’t provide safety or buffer overflow protection. When an attacker provides malformed input to a program, the program’s memory becomes corrupt allowing the attacker to take control of the program. Although attackers have adapted and invented new ways to attack, we’ve responded with memory safety defenses, mitigating the most common forms of attack, including and especially [use-after-free (UAF)](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/416.html) vulnerabilities. | -| **Memory Garbage Collector (MemGC) mitigation** | MemGC replaces Memory Protector and helps to protect the browser from UAF vulnerabilities. MemGC frees up memory from the programmer and automating it. Only freeing memory when the automation detects no references left pointing to a given block of memory. | -| **Control Flow Guard** | Attackers use memory corruption attacks to gain control of the CPU program counter to jump to any code location they want. Control Flow Guard, a Microsoft Visual Studio technology, compiles checks around code that performs indirect jumps based on a pointer. Those jumps get restricted to function entry points with known addresses only making attacker take-overs must more difficult constraining where an attack jumps. | -| **All web content runs in an app container sandbox** | Microsoft Edge takes the sandbox even farther, running its content processes in containers not just by default, but all of the time. Microsoft Edge doesn’t support 3rd party binary extensions, so there is no reason for it to run outside of the container, making Microsoft Edge more secure. | -| **Extension model and HTML5 support** | Microsoft Edge does not support binary extensions because they can bring code and data into the browser’s processes without any protection. So if anything goes wrong, the entire browser itself can be compromised or go down. We encourage everyone to use our 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** | Microsoft Edge does not support VBScript, JScript, VML, Browser Helper Objects, Toolbars, ActiveX controls, and [document modes](/previous-versions/windows/internet-explorer/ie-developer/compatibility/jj676915(v=vs.85)). Many IE browser vulnerabilities only appear in legacy document modes, so removing support reduced attack surface making the browser more secure.

Public browsing

Runs a limited multi-tab version of Microsoft Edge, protecting user data. Microsoft Edge is the only app users can use on the device, preventing them from customizing Microsoft Edge. Users can only browse publically or end their browsing session.

The single-app public browsing mode is the only kiosk mode that has an End session button. Microsoft Edge also resets the session after a specified time of user inactivity. Both restart Microsoft Edge and clear the user’s session.

Example. A public library or hotel concierge desk are two examples of public browsing that provides access to Microsoft Edge and other apps.

Policy setting = Enabled (1) | -| **Multi-app**

![thumbnail](../images/Picture5-sm.png)

**Normal browsing**

Runs a full-version of Microsoft Edge with all browsing features and preserves the user data and state between sessions.

Some features may not work depending on what other apps you have configured in assigned access. For example, installing extensions or books from the Microsoft store are not allowed if the store is not available. Also, if Internet Explorer 11 is set up in assigned access, you can enable [EnterpriseModeSiteList](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-browser#browser-enterprisemodesitelist) to automatically switch users to Internet Explorer 11 for sites that need backward compatibility support.

Public browsing

Runs a multi-tab version of Microsoft Edge InPrivate with a tailored experience for kiosks that runs in full-screen mode. Users can open and close Microsoft Edge and launch other apps if allowed by assigned access. Instead of an End session button to clear their browsing session, the user closes Microsoft Edge normally.

In this configuration, Microsoft Edge can interact with other applications. For example, if Internet Explorer 11 is set up in multi-app assigned access, you can enable [EnterpriseModeSiteList](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-browser#browser-enterprisemodesitelist) to automatically switch users to Internet Explorer 11 for sites that need backward compatibility support.

Example. A public library or hotel concierge desk are two examples of public browsing that provides access to Microsoft Edge and other apps.

Assigned access restricts a local standard user account so that it only has access to one or more Windows app, such as Microsoft Edge Legacy in kiosk mode. - -In this topic, you'll learn: - -- How to configure the behavior of Microsoft Edge Legacy when it's running in kiosk mode with assigned access. -- What's required to run Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode on your kiosk devices. -- You'll also learn how to set up your kiosk device using either Windows Setting or Microsoft Intune or an other MDM service. - -At the end of this topic, you can find a list of [supported policies](#supported-policies-for-kiosk-mode) for kiosk mode and a [feature comparison](#feature-comparison-of-kiosk-mode-and-kiosk-browser-app) of the kiosk mode policy and kiosk browser app. You also find instructions on how to provide us feedback or get support. - - -## Kiosk mode configuration types - -> **Policy** = Configure kiosk mode (ConfigureKioskMode) - -Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode supports four configurations types that depend on how Microsoft Edge Legacy is set up with assigned access, either as a single-app or multi-app kiosk. These configuration types help you determine what is best suited for your kiosk device or scenario. - -- Learn about [creating a kiosk experience](/windows-hardware/customize/enterprise/create-a-kiosk-image) - - - [Set up a kiosk or digital signage on Windows 10 Pro, Enterprise, or Education](/windows/configuration/setup-kiosk-digital-signage) - - - [Create a Windows 10 kiosk that runs multiple apps](/windows/configuration/lock-down-windows-10-to-specific-apps). - -- Learn about configuring a more secure kiosk experience: [Other settings to lock down](/windows/configuration/setup-kiosk-digital-signage#other-settings-to-lock-down). - - -### Important things to note before getting started - -- There are [required steps to follow](#setup- required-for-microsoft-edge-legacy-kiosk-mode) in order to use the following Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode types either alongside the new version of Microsoft Edge or prevent the new version of Microsoft Edge from being installed on your kiosk device. - -- The public browsing kiosk types run Microsoft Edge Legacy InPrivate mode to protect user data with a browsing experience designed for public kiosks. - -- Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode has a built-in timer to help keep data safe in public browsing sessions. When the idle time (no user activity) meets the time limit, a confirmation message prompts the user to continue, and if no user activity Microsoft Edge Legacy resets the session to the default URL. By default, the idle timer is 5 minutes, but you can choose a value of your own. - -- Optionally, you can define a single URL for the Home button, Start page, and New Tab page. See [Supported policies for kiosk mode](#supported-policies-for-kiosk-mode) to learn more. - -- No matter which configuration type you choose, you must set up Microsoft Edge Legacy in assigned access; otherwise, Microsoft Edge Legacy ignores the settings in this policy (Configure kiosk mode/ConfigureKioskMode).

For a multi-app kiosk device, use Microsoft Intune or other MDM service. - -- **Microsoft Intune or other MDM service.** Use to set up several single-app or multi-app kiosk devices. Microsoft Intune and other MDM service providers offer more options for customizing the Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode experience using any of the [Supported policies for kiosk mode](#supported-policies-for-kiosk-mode). - - -### Prerequisites - -- Microsoft Edge Legacy on Windows 10, version 1809 (Professional, Enterprise, and Education). - -- See [Setup required for Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode](#setup-required-for-microsoft-edge-legacy-kiosk-mode). - -- URL to load when the kiosk launches. The URL that you provide sets the Home button, Start page, and New Tab page. - -- _**For Microsoft Intune or other MDM service**_, you must have the AppUserModelID (AUMID) to set up Microsoft Edge Legacy: - - ``` - Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe!MicrosoftEdge - ``` - -### Setup required for Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode - -When the new version of Microsoft Edge Stable channel is installed, Microsoft Edge Legacy is hidden and all attempts to launch Microsoft Edge Legacy are redirected to the new version of Microsoft Edge. - -To continue using Microsoft Edge Legacy kiosk mode on your kiosk devices take one of the following actions: - -- If you plan to install Microsoft Edge Stable channel, want to allow it to be installed, or it is already installed on your kiosk device set the Microsoft Edge [Allow Microsoft Edge Side by Side browser experience](/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-update-policies#allowsxs) policy to **Enabled**. -- To prevent Microsoft Edge Stable channel from being installed on your kiosk devices deploy the Microsoft Edge [Allow installation default](/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-update-policies#installdefault) policy for Stable channel or consider using the [Blocker toolkit](/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-blocker-toolkit) to disable automatic delivery of Microsoft Edge. - -> [!NOTE] -> For more information about accessing Microsoft Edge Legacy after installing Microsoft Edge, see [How to access the old version of Microsoft Edge](/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-sysupdate-access-old-edge). - -### Use Windows Settings - -Windows Settings is the simplest and the only way to set up one or a couple of single-app devices. - -1. On the kiosk device, open Windows Settings, and in the search field type **kiosk** and then select **Set up a kiosk (assigned access)**. - -2. On the **Set up a kiosk** page, click **Get started**. - -3. Type a name to create a new kiosk account, or choose an existing account from the populated list and click **Next**. - -4. On the **Choose a kiosk app** page, select **Microsoft Edge Legacy** and then click **Next**. - -5. Select how Microsoft Edge Legacy displays when running in kiosk mode: - - - **As a digital sign or interactive display** - Displays a specific site in full-screen mode, running Microsoft Edge Legacy InPrivate protecting user data. - - - **As a public browser** - Runs a limited multi-tab version of Microsoft Edge Legacy, protecting user data. - -6. Select **Next**. - -7. Type the URL to load when the kiosk launches. - -8. Accept the default value of **5 minutes** for the idle time or provide a value of your own. - -9. Click **Next**. - -10. Close the **Settings** window to save and apply your choices. - -11. Restart the kiosk device and sign in with the local kiosk account to validate the configuration. - -**_Congratulations!_**
