Enable post-quantum key agreement for WebRTC
Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later
What it does
This policy allows controlling post-quantum key agreement for WebRTC. If this policy is set to Enabled, post-quantum key agreement would be offered for WebRTC. If this policy is set to Disabled, post-quantum key agreement would not be offered for WebRTC. If this policy is not set, the value would be set by the default rollout process for post-quantum key agreement offered for WebRTC. Offering a post-quantum key agreement is backwards-compatible. Existing DTLS peers and networking middleware are expected to ignore the new option and continue selecting previous options. However, devices that do not correctly implement DTLS may malfunction when offered the new option. For example, they may disconnect in response to unrecognized options or the resulting larger messages. Such devices are not post-quantum-ready and will interfere with an enterprise's post-quantum transition. If encountered, administrators should contact the vendor for a fix. This policy is a temporary measure and will be removed after some milestones.

- The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
- Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
