Windows 11 2022 (22H2 release) is now out, and Microsoft has once again placed a heavy emphasis on security. The good news for this release is that even Windows Home versions can receive some of the key security features with no additional Windows or Microsoft 365 licensing. Review the Windows 11 22H2 security baseline documents and begin to test these features.
Windows 11 release cadence
First, a reminder: With Windows 11 feature releases now only come out once a year. Major security changes occurred in the first release of Windows 11 (21H2) as well as this release of 22H2. Between each major feature release will be small incremental changes called “moment” releases. For example, expected future moment updates will be features such as tabs and a new sidebar to File Explorer.
