Ensure 'Default automatic downloads setting' is set to 'Enabled: Prevent all websites from performing multiple downloads, even after a user gesture'

MoyenneNiveau 1Automatiséeedge

Description

This policy setting controls whether websites can perform multiple downloads successively without user interaction. The recommended state for this setting is: Enabled: Prevent all websites from performing multiple downloads, even after a user gesture. Rationale: Unintentional malicious content could be downloaded without user interaction if websites are allowed to perform automatic downloads. Audit reads the Group Policy registry value and prints 'compliant', 'unset' (policy not configured, reported as FAIL) or the non-compliant value. Registry value: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge:DefaultAutomaticDownloadsSetting (REG_DWORD); compliant when it is 2. Remediation writes 2 locally; in a domain set it through the ADMX so Group Policy does not revert it.
