What it does
This policy controls the dynamic code settings for Brave. Disabling dynamic code improves the security of Brave by preventing potentially hostile dynamic code and third-party code from making changes to Brave's behavior, but might cause compatibility issues with third-party software (e.g. certain printer drivers) that must run inside the browser process. If the policy is set to 0 - Default or left unset then Brave will use the default settings. If the policy is set to 1 - DisabledForBrowser then the Brave browser process will be prevented from creating dynamic code. Note: Read more about process mitigation policies ( https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/HEAD/docs/design/sandbox.md#Process-mitigation-policies ).
