Security baseline for Chromium-based Microsoft Edge, version 79

A customer asked me to design security settings for the new Edge browser. So I noticed the baseline for the new Edge browser. I`ll give the Feedback that I understand MSFT recommendations.

 

But. In a world with a formal (security) management (ISO 27001/ISO 9001) this is useless.

 

Following the principles of Quality Management (ISO 27001 is based on ISO 9001) a decision is based on Facts ("QMP 6 – Evidence-based decision making"). Where are this Facts? 

 

Let´s face it. I can´t document here: set this because MSFT wrote it without any further information.

 

Very simple example: hinder users from changing sandbox setting. Is there telemetry data at Microsoft that Shows that thousands of the millions of Windows Enterprise users changing that Settings? If so, please let us know. That kind of evaluated data would give companies the fundamental facts to drive real good decisions. 

 

My two cents, Kind regards

Dennis
