Navigate to the Security section and turn on the Enhance your security on the web toggle button.Īdditionally, IT admins can use Group Policy settings to configure the enhanced security mode feature for all end users in their organization.

To enable the enhanced security mode, head to Settings and more > Settings > Privacy, search, and services in Microsoft Edge. This mode doesn’t take a user’s behavior into account and only enables the feature on less visited sites,” Microsoft explained. “Basic mode is a static mode that only applies these security mitigations to less visited sites. The new Basic option will be available besides the existing Balanced and Strict modes in Settings. Microsoft Edge 104 improves the enhanced security mode with the addition of a new Basic setting which is now enabled by default. It primarily disables the JavaScript just-in-time (JIT) compiler to reduce the attack surface and provide additional protection against memory-related vulnerabilities. The feature helps to protect users from security threats while browsing the Internet. The enhanced security mode (previously known as the Super Duper Secure mode) launched in Microsoft Edge in November 2021.

This new update brings some improvements to the enhanced security mode to make the browsing experience more secure on less popular websites, and some new policies for IT admins. Microsoft has started rolling out Edge version 104 to the Stable channel.
