Windows Defender Credential Guard is a security service in Windows 10 built to protect Active Directory (AD) domain credentials so that they can't be stolen or misused by malware on a user's machine. It is designed to protect against well-known threats such as Pass-the-Hash and credential harvesting.
Windows Defender Credential Guard has always been an optional feature, but Windows 10 in S mode turns this functionality on by default when the machine has been Azure Active Directory joined. This provides an added level of security when connecting to domain resources not normally present on devices running Windows 10 in S mode. Please note that Windows Defender Credential Guard is available only to S mode devices or Enterprise and Education Editions.

### Web sign-in to Windows 10
Until now, Windows logon only supported the use of identities federated to ADFS or other providers that support the WS-Fed protocol. We are introducing "web sign-in," a new way of signing into your Windows PC. Web Sign-in enables Windows logon support for non-ADFS federated providers (e.g.SAML).
**To try out web sign-in:**
1. Azure AD Join your Windows 10 PC. (Web sign-in is only supported on Azure AD Joined PCs).
2. Set the Policy CSP, and the Authentication and EnableWebSignIn polices to enable web sign-in.
3. On the lock screen, select web sign-in under sign-in options.
4. Click the "Sign in" button to continue.

In this version of Windows 10, Microsoft has extended the ability to send a Miracast stream over a local network rather than over a direct wireless link. This functionality is based on the [Miracast over Infrastructure Connection Establishment Protocol (MS-MICE)](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/mt796768.aspx).
How it works:
#### How it works
Users attempt to connect to a Miracast receiver as they did previously. When the list of Miracast receivers is populated, Windows 10 will identify that the receiver is capable of supporting a connection over the infrastructure. When the user selects a Miracast receiver, Windows 10 will attempt to resolve the device's hostname via standard DNS, as well as via multicast DNS (mDNS). If the name is not resolvable via either DNS method, Windows 10 will fall back to establishing the Miracast session using the standard Wi-Fi direct connection.
Miracast over Infrastructure offers a number of benefits:
#### Miracast over Infrastructure offers a number of benefits
- Windows automatically detects when sending the video stream over this path is applicable.
- Windows will only choose this route if the connection is over Ethernet or a secure Wi-Fi network.

- It works well with older wireless hardware that is not optimized for Miracast over Wi-Fi Direct.

#### Enabling Miracast over Infrastructure
If you have a device that has been updated to Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019, then you automatically have this new feature. To take advantage of it in your environment, you need to ensure the following is true within your deployment:
- The device (PC, phone, or Surface Hub) needs to be running Windows 10, version 1703, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019, or a later OS.
- A Windows PC or Surface Hub can act as a Miracast over Infrastructure *receiver*. A Windows PC or phone can act as a Miracast over Infrastructure *source*.
- As a Miracast receiver, the PC or Surface Hub must be connected to your enterprise network via either Ethernet or a secure Wi-Fi connection (e.g. using either WPA2-PSK or WPA2-Enterprise security). If the Hub is connected to an open Wi-Fi connection, Miracast over Infrastructure will disable itself.
- As a Miracast source, the PC or phone must be connected to the same enterprise network via Ethernet or a secure Wi-Fi connection.
- The DNS Hostname (device name) of the device needs to be resolvable via your DNS servers. You can achieve this by either allowing your device to register automatically via Dynamic DNS, or by manually creating an A or AAAA record for the device's hostname.
- Windows 10 PCs must be connected to the same enterprise network via Ethernet or a secure Wi-Fi connection.
It is important to note that Miracast over Infrastructure is not a replacement for standard Miracast. Instead, the functionality is complementary, and provides an advantage to users who are part of the enterprise network. Users who are guests to a particular location and dont have access to the enterprise network will continue to connect using the Wi-Fi Direct connection method.
