- Device
This policy setting enables process mitigation options on svchost.exe processes.
If you enable this policy setting, built-in system services hosted in svchost.exe processes will have stricter security policies enabled on them.
These stricter security policies include a policy requiring all binaries loaded in these processes to be signed by Microsoft, and a policy disallowing dynamically generated code.
Important
Enabling this policy could cause compatibility issues with third-party software that uses svchost.exe processes (for example, third-party antivirus software).
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the stricter security settings will not be applied.
Tip
This is an ADMX-backed policy and requires a special SyncML format to enable or disable. For details, see Understanding ADMX-backed policies.
You must specify the data type in the SyncML as <Format>chr</Format>. For an example SyncML, refer to Enabling a policy.
The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see CDATA Sections.
