# Protect devices from exploits with Windows Defender Exploit Guard
**Applies to:**
- Windows 10 Insider Preview, build 16232 and later
**Audience**
- Enterprise security administrators
**Manageability available with**
- Group Policy
- PowerShell
- Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
- System Center Configuration Manager
- Microsoft Intune
- Windows Defender Security Center app
Exploit Protection automatically applies a number of exploit mitigation techniques on both the operating system processes and on individual apps.
It is part of Windows Defender Exploit Guard, which is itself a component in the new Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection offering of security and threat prevention products.
You configure these settings using the Windows Defender Security Center on an individual machine, and then export the configuration as an XML file that you can deploy to other machines. You can use Group Policy to distribute the XML file to multiple devices at once.
## Requirements
The following requirements must be met before Exploit Protection will work:
