Local security authority protection is off. Your device may be vulnerable.

I find this warning under - Privacy and Security - Windows security - Device security (there is a warning badge) - Core isolation (This is where the warning is stated). Then under "Core isolation details" I don't see any more warnings. I googled it and didn't find anything helpful.

I wasn't getting any security warnings until after the latest Windows update.

It's a bug if it's on or not it shows as off.
