18.8.21.4 Ensure 'Continue experiences on this device' is set to 'Disabled'

Info

This policy setting determines whether the Windows device is allowed to participate in cross-device experiences (continue experiences).
The recommended state for this setting is: 'Disabled'.
Rationale:
A cross-device experience is when a system can access app and send messages to other devices. In an enterprise managed environment only trusted systems should be communicating within the network. Access to any other system should be prohibited.

Solution

To establish the recommended configuration via GP, set the following UI path to 'Disabled':
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy\Continue experiences on this device
Note: This Group Policy path may not exist by default. It is provided by the Group Policy template 'GroupPolicy.admx/adml' that is included with the Microsoft Windows 10 Release 1607 & Server 2016 Administrative Templates (or newer).
Impact:
The Windows device will not be discoverable by other devices, and cannot participate in cross-device experiences.
