The Windows 11 Security Book covers critical aspects of modern security, including hardware, operating systems, applications, identity management, privacy, and cloud services. Below, we dive into key security practices, commands, and configurations to enhance your Windows 11 security posture.
You Should Know:
1. Hardware Security (TPM & Secure Boot)
Windows 11 mandates TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot for installation. Verify these settings using PowerShell:
Get-Tpm Confirm-SecureBootUEFI
If disabled, enable them via BIOS/UEFI settings.
2. Operating System Hardening
- Disable unnecessary services:
Stop-Service -Name "RemoteRegistry" -Force Set-Service -Name "RemoteRegistry" -StartupType Disabled
- Enable BitLocker (Full Disk Encryption):
Enable-BitLocker -MountPoint "C:" -EncryptionMethod XtsAes256
3. Application Security
- Restrict PowerShell execution policy:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Restricted
- Block malicious scripts via AppLocker:
New-AppLockerPolicy -RuleType Publisher -FilePath "C:\Scripts\" -User Everyone -Deny
4. Identity & Access Management
- Enforce strong password policies:
net accounts /MINPWLEN:12
- Enable Windows Defender Credential Guard (Virtualization-Based Security):
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName "VirtualizationBasedSecurity"
5. Cloud Security (Microsoft Defender for Endpoint)
- Deploy advanced threat protection:
Set-MpPreference -SubmitSamplesConsent 2
6. Privacy Controls
- Disable telemetry/data collection:
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection" -Name "AllowTelemetry" -Value 0
What Undercode Say:
Windows 11 security is multi-layered, requiring proactive hardening. Key takeaways:
– Always enable TPM 2.0 & Secure Boot.
– Use BitLocker for encryption.
– Restrict PowerShell and AppLocker policies.
– Deploy Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
– Audit and disable unnecessary services.
