Enhance the security state in Microsoft Edge

This policy lets you enhance the security state in Microsoft Edge.

If you set this policy to 'StandardMode', the enhanced mode is turned off, and Microsoft Edge falls back to its standard security mode.

If you set this policy to 'BalancedMode', the security state is in balanced mode.

If you set this policy to 'StrictMode', the security state is in strict mode.

If you set this policy to 'BasicMode', the security state is in basic mode.

Note: Sites that use WebAssembly (WASM) aren't supported on 32-bit systems when 'EnhanceSecurityMode' (Enhance the security state in Microsoft Edge) is enabled. If you require access to a site that uses WASM, consider adding it to your exception list as described in https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2183321.

Starting from Microsoft Edge version 113, 'BasicMode' is deprecated and is treated the same as 'BalancedMode'. It doesn't work in Microsoft Edge version 116.

For detailed information about Enhanced Security Mode, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2185895.
