Internet Explorer Processes for MK protocol must be enforced (Reserved).
Description
Discussion Text
The MK Protocol Security Restriction policy setting reduces attack surface area by blocking the seldom used MK protocol. Some older web applications use the MK protocol to retrieve information from compressed files. Because the MK Protocol is not widely used, it should be blocked wherever it is not needed. Setting this policy to enabled, blocks the MK protocol for Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer, which causes resources that use the MK protocol to fail. Disabling this setting allows applications to use the MK protocol API. This guide recommends configuring this setting to Enabled to block the MK protocol unless it is specifically needed it in the environment. Note: Because resources that use the MK protocol will fail when deploying this setting, ensure none of the applications use the MK protocol.
