The Windows Internet Explorer Security tab is used to set and change options that can help protect your computer from potentially harmful or malicious online content.
Follow these steps:
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen (if you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen and move the mouse pointer down), and then tap or click Search. Enter Internet options in the search box, and then tap or click Settings.
In the search results, tap or click Internet Options.
Tap or click the Security tab.
Internet Explorer assigns all websites to one of four security zones: Internet, Local intranet, Trusted sites, or Restricted sites. The zone to which a website is assigned specifies the security settings that are used for that site.
The following table describes the four Internet Explorer security zones.
Internet
All websites are assigned to this zone by default. The only websites this security setting isn't used for are those in the Local intranet, Trusted, or Restricted site zones. The security level for this zone is set to Medium High, but you can change it to either Medium or High.
Local intranet
Websites and other resources that are on your organization's network are assigned to this zone. The security level for this zone is set to Medium, but you can change it to any level.
Trusted sites
You can assign websites that you trust to this zone. The security level for this zone is set to Medium, but you can change it to any level.
Restricted sites
Websites that might damage files and your PC should be assigned to this zone. Adding sites to the Restricted zone doesn't block them, but it prevents them from using scripting or any active content (interactive or animated content on websites). The security level for Restricted sites is set to High and can't be changed.
In addition to the default security levels, you can also customize individual security settings by clicking the Custom level button.
You can help control the level of security used on a website by assigning it to a specific security zone. For example, if you have a list of sites that you visit regularly and completely trust, add those sites to the Trusted zone.
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.(If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Search.)
Enter Internet options in the search box, and then tap or click Settings.
Tap or click the Security tab, choose a security zone (Local intranet or Restricted sites), and then tap or click Sites.
If you chose Local intranet in the previous step, tap or click Advanced, and then do one of the following:
To add a site, enter the URL into the Add this website to the zone box, and then tap or click Add.
To remove a site, under Websites, select the URL for the website that you want to remove, and then tap or click Remove.
