In some cases, you may need to manually verify the device configuration has the `AllowUpdateComplianceProcessing` policy enabled. To verify the setting, use the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download and enable the **Diagnostic Data Viewer**. For more information, see [Diagnostic Data Viewer overview](/windows/privacy/diagnostic-data-viewer-overview#install-and-use-the-diagnostic-data-viewer).

|
||||
|
||||
- Windows 11: **Turn on the Diagnostic Data Viewer (uses up to 1 GB of hard drive space)**
|
||||
- Windows 10: **Turn on this setting to see your data in the Diagnostic Data Viewer. (Setting uses up to 1GB of hard drive space.)**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Select **Open Diagnostic Data Viewer**.
|
||||
- If the application isn't installed, select **Get** when you're asked to download the [Diagnostic Data Viewer from the Microsoft Store](https://www.microsoft.com/store/p/diagnostic-data-viewer/9n8wtrrsq8f7?rtc=1) page.
|
||||
- If the application is already installed, it will open. You can either close the application before running a scan for software updates, or use the refresh button to fetch the new data after the scan is completed.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check for software updates on the client device.
|
||||
- Windows 11:
|
||||

|
||||
1. Under **View diagnostic data**, select **Open Diagnostic Data Viewer**.
|

|
||||
1. Select **Create a support request** which opens the new support request page.
|
||||
1. On the **Problem description** tab, provide information about the issue. The below items in ***bold italics*** should be used to help ensure an Update Compliance engineer receives your support request:

|
||||
|
||||
## Documentation feedback
|
||||
|
||||
Select the **Feedback** link in the upper right of any article to go to the Feedback section at the bottom. Feedback is integrated with GitHub Issues. For more information about this integration with GitHub Issues, see the [docs platform blog post](/teamblog/a-new-feedback-system-is-coming-to-docs).
|
||||
|
||||
:::image type="content" source="media/docs-feedback.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the feedback section on a docs article.":::
|
||||
|
||||
To share docs feedback about the current article, select **This page**. A [GitHub account](https://github.com/join) is a prerequisite for providing documentation feedback. Once you sign in, there's a one-time authorization for the MicrosoftDocs organization. It then opens the GitHub new issue form. Add a descriptive title and detailed feedback in the body, but don't modify the document details section. Then select **Submit new issue** to file a new issue for the target article in the [Windows-ITPro-docs GitHub repository](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-itpro-docs/issues).
|
||||
|
||||
To see whether there's already feedback for this article, select **View all page feedback**. This action opens a GitHub issue query for this article. By default it displays both open and closed issues. Review any existing feedback before you submit a new issue. If you find a related issue, select the face icon to add a reaction, add a comment to the thread, or **Subscribe** to receive notifications.
|
||||
|
||||
Use GitHub Issues to submit the following types of feedback:
|
||||
|
||||
- Doc bug: The content is out of date, unclear, confusing, or broken.
|
||||
- Doc enhancement: A suggestion to improve the article.
|
||||
- Doc question: You need help with finding existing documentation.
|
||||
- Doc idea: A suggestion for a new article.
|
||||
- Kudos: Positive feedback about a helpful or informative article.
|
||||
- Localization: Feedback about content translation.
|
||||
- Search engine optimization (SEO): Feedback about problems searching for content. Include the search engine, keywords, and target article in the comments.
|
||||
|
||||
If you create an issue for something not related to documentation, Microsoft will close the issue and redirect you to a better feedback channel. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Product feedback](#send-product-feedback) for Update Compliance
|
||||
- [Product questions (using Microsoft Q&A)](/answers/products/)
|
||||
- [Support requests](#open-a-microsoft-support-case) for Update Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
To share feedback on the fundamental docs.microsoft.com platform, see [Docs feedback](https://aka.ms/sitefeedback). The platform includes all of the wrapper components such as the header, table of contents, and right menu. Also how the articles render in the browser, such as the font, alert boxes, and page anchors.
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting tips
|
||||
|
||||
Use the troubleshooting tips below to resolve commonly encountered problems when using Update Compliance:
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify client configuration
|
||||
|
||||
<!--Using include for verifying device configuration-->
|
||||
[!INCLUDE [Endpoints for Update Compliance](./includes/update-compliance-verify-device-configuration.md)]
|
||||
|
||||
### Ensuring devices are configured correctly to send data
|
||||
|
||||
The first step in troubleshooting Update Compliance is ensuring that devices are configured. Review [Manually configuring devices for Update Compliance](update-compliance-v2-configuration-manual.md) for the settings. We recommend using the [Update Compliance configuration script](update-compliance-v2-configuration-script.md) for troubleshooting and configuring devices.
|
||||
|
||||
### Devices have been correctly configured but aren't showing up in Update Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
It takes some time for data to appear in Update Compliance for the first time or if you moved to a new Log Analytics workspace. To learn more about data latencies for Update Compliance, review [Update Compliance data latency](update-compliance-v2-use.md#update-compliance-data-latency).
|
||||
|
||||
### Devices are appearing, but without a device name
|
||||
|
||||
Device Name is an opt-in via policy starting in Windows 10 version 1803. Review the required policies for enabling device name in the [Manually configuring devices for Update Compliance](update-compliance-v2-configuration-manual.md) article.

# Update Compliance (preview) workbook
|
||||
<!-- MAX6325272, OS33771278 -->
|
||||
***(Applies to: Windows 11 & Windows 10)***
|
||||
|
||||
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
||||
> This information relates to a preview feature that's available for early testing and use in a production environment. This feature is fully supported but it's still in active development and may receive substantial changes until it becomes generally available.
|
||||
|
||||
[Update Compliance](update-compliance-v2-overview.md) presents information commonly needed by updates administrators in an easy to use format. Update Compliance uses [Azure Workbooks](/azure/azure-monitor/visualize/workbooks-getting-started) to give you a visual representation of your compliance data. The workbook is broken down into three tab sections:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Summary](#summary-tab)
|
||||
- [Quality updates](#quality-updates-tab)
|
||||
- [Feature updates](#feature-updates-tab)
|
||||
|
||||
:::image type="content" source="media/33771278-update-compliance-workbook-summary.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the summary tab in the Update Compliance workbook with the three tabbed sections outlined in red." lightbox="media/33771278-update-compliance-workbook-summary.png":::
|
||||
|
||||
## Open the Update Compliance workbook
|
||||
|
||||
To access the Update Compliance workbook:
|
||||
|
||||
1. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), select **Monitor** > **Workbooks** from the menu bar.
|
||||
- You can also type **Monitor** in the search bar. As you begin typing, the list filters based on your input.
|
||||
|
||||
1. When the gallery opens, select the **Update Compliance** workbook. If needed, you can filter workbooks by name in the gallery.
|
||||
1. When the workbook opens, you may need to specify which **Subscription** and **Workspace** you used when [enabling Update Compliance](update-compliance-v2-enable.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary tab
|
||||
|
||||
The **Summary** tab gives you a brief high-level overview of the devices that you've enrolled into Update Compliance. The **Summary** tab contains tiles above the **Overall security update status** chart.
|
||||
|
||||
### Summary tab tiles
|
||||
|
||||
Each of these tiles contains an option to **View details**. When **View details** is selected for a tile, a flyout appears with additional information.
|
||||
|
||||
:::image type="content" source="media/33771278-workbook-summary-tab-tiles.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the summary tab tiles in the Update Compliance workbook":::
|
||||
|
||||
| Tile name | Description | View details description |
|
||||
|---|---|------|
|
||||
| **Enrolled devices** | Total number of devices that are enrolled into Update Compliance | Displays multiple charts about the operating systems (OS) for enrolled devices: </br> **OS Version** </br> **OS Edition** </br> **OS Servicing Channel** </br> **OS Architecture**|
|
||||
|**Active alerts** | Total number of active alerts on enrolled devices | Displays the top three active alert subtypes and the count of devices in each. </br> </br> Select the count of **Devices** to display a table of the devices. This table is limited to the first 250 rows. Select `...` to export the full list, or display the query in [Log Analytics](/azure/azure-monitor/logs/log-analytics-tutorial). </br> </br> Select an **AlertSubtype** to display a list containing: </br> - Each **Error Code** in the alert subtype </br>- A **Description** of the error code </br> - A **Recommendation** to help you remediate the error code </br> - A count of **Devices** with the specific error code |
|
||||
| **Windows 11 eligibility** | Percentage of devices that are capable of running Windows 11 | Displays the following items: </br> - **Windows 11 Readiness Status** chart </br> - **Readiness Reason(s) Breakdown** chart that displays Windows 11 requirements that aren't met. </br> - A table for **Readiness reason**. Select a reason to display a list of devices that don't meet a specific requirement for Windows 11. |
|
||||
|
||||
### Summary tab charts
|
||||
|
||||
The charts displayed in the **Summary** tab give you a general idea of the overall status of your devices. The two charts displayed include:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Overall security update status**: Gives you general insight into of the current update compliance state of your enrolled devices. For instance, if the chart shows a large number of devices are missing multiple security updates, it may indicate an issue in the software update process.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Feature update status**: Gives you a general understanding of how many devices are eligible for feature updates based on the operating system lifecycle.
|
||||
|
||||
:::image type="content" source="media/33771278-overall-security-update-status.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the charts in the workbook's summary tab" lightbox="media/33771278-overall-security-update-status.png":::
|
||||
|
||||
## Quality updates tab
|
||||
|
||||
The **Quality updates** tab displays generalized data at the top by using tiles. The quality update data becomes more specific as you navigate lower in this tab. The top of the **Quality updates** tab contains tiles with the following information:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Devices count**: Count of devices that have reported at least one security update is or was applicable and offered in the past 30 days, regardless of installation state of the update.
|
||||
- **Latest security update**: Count of devices that have installed the latest security update.
|
||||
- **Security update status**: Count of devices that haven't installed a security update released within the last 60 days.
|
||||
- **Total alerts**: Count of active alerts that are for quality updates.
|
||||
|
||||
Below the tiles, the **Quality updates** tab is subdivided into **Update status** and **Device status** groups. These different chart groups allow you to easily discover trends in compliance data. For instance, you may remember that about third of your devices were in the installing state yesterday, but this number didn't change as much as you were expecting. That unexpected trend may cause you to investigate and resolve a potential issue before end-users are impacted.
|
||||
|
||||
### <a name="bkmk_update-group-quality"></a> Update status group for quality updates
|
||||
|
||||
The **Update status** group for quality updates contains the following items:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Update states for all security releases**: Chart containing the number of devices in a specific state, such as installing, for security updates.
|
||||
- **Update states for the latest security releases**: Chart containing the number of devices in a specific state for the most recent security update.
|
||||
- **Update alerts for all security releases**: Chart containing the count of active errors and warnings for security updates.
|
||||
|
||||
:::image type="content" source="media/33771278-update-deployment-status-table.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the charts and table in the workbook's quality updates tab" lightbox="media/33771278-update-deployment-status-table.png":::
|
||||
|
||||
The **Update deployment status** table displays the quality updates for each operating system version that were released within the last 60 days. For each update, drill-in further by selecting a value from the following columns:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The **Feature updates** tab displays generalized data at the top by using tiles. The feature update data becomes more specific as you navigate lower in this tab. The top of the **Feature updates** tab contains tiles with the following information:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Devices count**: Count of devices that have reported a feature update is or was applicable and offered in the past 30 days, regardless of installation state of the update.

## Customize the workbook
|
||||
|
||||
Since the Update Compliance workbook is an [Azure Workbook template](/azure/azure-monitor/visualize/workbooks-templates), it can be customized to suit your needs. If you open a template, make some adjustments, and save it, the template is saved as a workbook. This workbook appears in green. The original template is left untouched. For more information about workbooks, see [Get started with Azure Workbooks](/azure/azure-monitor/visualize/workbooks-getting-started).

| **Hash** | Specifies individual [Authenticode/PE image hash values](#more-information-about-hashes) for each discovered binary. This level is the most specific level, and requires more effort to maintain the current product versions’ hash values. Each time a binary is updated, the hash value changes, therefore requiring a policy update. |
|
||||
| **FileName** | Specifies the original filename for each binary. Although the hash values for an application are modified when updated, the file names are typically not. This level offers less specific security than the hash level, but it doesn't typically require a policy update when any binary is modified. |

| **Publisher** | This level combines the PcaCertificate level (typically one certificate below the root) and the common name (CN) of the leaf certificate. You can use this rule level to trust a certificate issued by a particular CA and issued to a specific company you trust (such as Intel, for device drivers). |

Signed Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) policies give organizations the highest level of malware protection available in Windows—must be signed with [PKCS #7](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5652). In addition to their enforced policy rules, signed policies can't be modified or deleted by a user or administrator on the computer. These policies are designed to prevent administrative tampering and kernel mode exploit access. With this idea of the policies in mind, it's much more difficult to remove signed WDAC policies. SecureBoot must be enabled in order to restrict users from updating or removing signed WDAC policies.

# Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) and .NET
|
||||
|
||||
Historically, Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) has restricted the set of applications, libraries, and scripts that are allowed to run to those sets approved by an organization.
|
||||
Security researchers have found that some .NET applications may be used to circumvent those controls by using .NET’s capabilities to load libraries from external sources or generate new code on the fly.
|
||||
Beginning with Windows 10, version 1803, or Windows 11, Windows Defender Application Control features a new capability, called *Dynamic Code Security* to verify code loaded by .NET at runtime.
|
||||
.NET apps (as written in a high-level language like C#) are compiled to an Intermediate Language (IL). IL is a compact code format that can be supported on any operating system or architecture. Most .NET apps use APIs that are supported in multiple environments, requiring only the .NET runtime to run. IL needs to be compiled to native code in order to execute on a CPU, for example Arm64 or x64. When .NET compiles IL to native image (NI) on a device with a WDAC user mode policy, it first checks whether the original IL file passes the current WDAC policies. If so, .NET sets an NTFS extended attribute (EA) on the generated NI file so that WDAC knows to trust it as well. When the .NET app runs, WDAC sees the EA on the NI file and allows it.
|
||||
|
||||
The EA set on the NI file only applies to the currently active WDAC policies. If one of the active WDAC policies is updated or a new policy is applied, the EA on the NI file is invalidated. The next time the app runs, WDAC will block the NI file. .NET handles the block gracefully and will fall back to the original IL code. If the IL still passes the latest WDAC policies, then the app runs without any functional impact. Since the IL is now being compiled at runtime, you may notice a slight impact to performance of the app. When .NET must fall back to IL, .NET will also schedule a process to run at the next maintenance window to regenerate all NI files, thus reestablishing the WDAC EA for all code that passes the latest WDAC policies.
|
||||
|
||||
In some cases, if an NI file is blocked, you may see a "false positive" block event in the *CodeIntegrity - Operational* event log as described in [WDAC Admin Tips & Known Issues](/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/operations/known-issues#net-native-images-may-generate-false-positive-block-events).
|
||||
|
||||
To mitigate any performance impact caused when the WDAC EA isn't valid or missing, use any of the following strategies:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Work with the app developer to pre-compile their NI and digitally sign it. Then, ensure your WDAC policies allow that signature;
|
||||
2. Run *ngen.exe update* to force .NET to regenerate all NI files immediately after applying changes to your WDAC policies;
|
||||
3. [Create and sign a catalog file](/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-application-control/deploy-catalog-files-to-support-windows-defender-application-control) for the native images

## WDAC and .NET hardening

|
||||
Security researchers have found that some .NET capabilities that allow apps to load libraries from external sources or generate new code at runtime can be used to circumvent WDAC controls.
|
||||
Beginning with Windows 10, version 1803, WDAC includes a new option, called *Dynamic Code Security* that works with .NET to verify code loaded at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
When the Dynamic Code Security option is enabled, Application Control policy is applied to libraries that .NET loads from external sources. For example, any non-local sources, such as the internet or a network share.

||||
Additionally, a few .NET loading features, including loading unsigned assemblies built with System.Reflection.Emit, aren't currently supported with Dynamic Code Security enabled.
|

Microsoft recommends testing Dynamic Code Security in audit mode before enforcing it to discover whether any new libraries should be included in the policy.

Additionally, customers can precompile for deployment only to prevent an allowed executable from being terminated because it tries to load unsigned dynamically generated code. See the "Precompiling for Deployment Only" section in the [ASP.NET Precompilation Overview](/aspnet/web-forms/overview/older-versions-getting-started/deploying-web-site-projects/precompiling-your-website-cs) document for how to fix that.
