Block JavaScript from using JIT on these sites

Computer and userIntune-readyJavaScriptJitBlockedForSites

Supported on Microsoft Edge version 93, Windows 7 or later

155.0.4283.62

What it does

Allows you to set a list of site URL patterns that specify sites that aren't allowed to run JavaScript JIT (Just In Time) compiler enabled. Disabling the JavaScript JIT means that Microsoft Edge may render web content more slowly, and may also disable parts of JavaScript including WebAssembly. Disabling the JavaScript JIT may allow Microsoft Edge to render web content in a more secure configuration. For detailed information on valid URL patterns, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095322. Wildcards, *, are allowed. JavaScript JIT policy exceptions will only be enforced at a site granularity (eTLD+1). A policy set for only subdomain.contoso.com will not correctly apply to contoso.com or subdomain.contoso.com since they both resolve to the same eTLD+1 (contoso.com) for which there is no policy. In this case, policy must be set on contoso.com to apply correctly for both contoso.com and subdomain.contoso.com. This policy applies on a frame-by-frame basis and not based on top-level origin URL alone; so, for example, if contoso.com is listed in the JavaScriptJitBlockedForSites policy but contoso.com loads a frame containing fabrikam.com, then contoso.com has JavaScript JIT disabled, but fabrikam.com uses the policy from 'DefaultJavaScriptJitSetting' (Control use of JavaScript JIT), if set, or default to JavaScript JIT enabled. If you don't configure this policy for a site, then the policy from 'DefaultJavaScriptJitSetting' applies to the site, if set; otherwise, JavaScript JIT is enabled for the site. Example value: [*.]example.edu

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.
The generated payload is incomplete because one or more ADMX element values were not supplied: JavaScriptJitBlockedForSitesDesc
