    Browser Security – Anti-exploitation (Attack surface reduction)

    Anti-Exploitation controls enable you to reduce the potential attack surface of the browser. These controls effectively limit usage of browser components that are complex and are occasionally found to contain vulnerabilities. While the latest version of the browser would never include known vulnerabilities, disabling unnecessary components limits the potential exposure between when a vulnerability is found and the time it is fixed.
    You should be aware that by disabling these components, you may impact some web page functionality. To minimize the impact on end-users, a non-intrusive dialog will be displayed if a capability is canceled. You need to be aware of these dialogs and the corresponding events in case users report issues with web pages. For example, disabling WebGL may impact functionality of an online maps website. When the users complain, you can identify the issue by looking for corresponding events and dialogs when users browse to these sites.
    When a web page is affected by a disabled component, an abbreviated message is shown. Users can click on the message to display a more informative one. The message will pop up once per viewed website. A Log event will also be generated.
