Welcome to WindowsHardening – your go-to repository for enhancing the security of Windows 10 and Windows 11 clients managed through Microsoft Intune.
In this repository, you'll find a collection of hardening files in JSON format, meticulously designed to bolster the security of your Windows 10 and Windows 11 systems. These files are not just any random collection; they are session catalogs, underpinned by the comprehensive and industry-recognized CIS Benchmarks tailored for Windows 10 and Windows 11 hardening.
JSON Hardening Files: Each file is an export from a session catalog, offering you a plug-and-play solution for immediately enhancing your system's security posture. Structured Settings: The hardening settings are split between user and computer settings, allowing for precise and targeted security measures. Wide Compatibility: Primarily designed for Windows 10 and Windows 11 Enterprise editions, these hardening files are also compatible and effective on other versions like Windows Pro.
How to Use Download: Select and download the JSON files applicable to your system version (Windows 10 or Windows 11). Import to Intune: Easily import these files into your Microsoft Intune environment. Apply Settings: Deploy these settings across your Windows clients to enforce a robust security framework.
Why CIS Benchmarks? CIS Benchmarks are globally recognized as a gold standard for securing IT systems and data against cyber threats. By aligning our hardening files with these benchmarks, we provide you with a trustworthy and effective way to harden your Windows environments against vulnerabilities.
