A yellow triangle appeared on the Windows Security iron yesterday. It says that Local Security Authority protection is off. Your device may be vulnerable.
I can press Go to settings or Dismiss but when I click go to settings, a notification saying "the page You want to access doesn't contain required functions and is unavailable".
There is also no option to turn the protection on in the Device Security panel (there is only "dismiss" option).
When I was looking at it yesterday, there was also a notification that "The tpm module is unavailable" but today it doesn't show. I checked the device manager and uefi and both say that the tpm is enabled.
I've found an advice to turn on SMV in UEFI (in the CPU settings) to solve the problem but I don't want to change anything in BIOS without consultation as I'm no expert. I've also found a reply from a truste source that this whole problem is a Microsoft bug and it's better to just wait till they fix it.
What should I do?
Screenshots are in Polish, I hope they can be useful somehow. The first one shows the notification about a page being not available and the second shows the Device security panel (the notification from the first screenshot displays when I close the device security page or when I click on "go to settings" below the information that the protection is turned off). There is also an information (second screenshot) that "standard device security is not supported".
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Microsoft have just posted that they have resolved the "Local Security Authority protection is off" issue in an update. Has anyone tried to apply it from Windows Update?
Resolution: This issue was resolved in an update for Windows Security platform antimalware platform KB5007651 (Version 1.0.2306.10002). If you would like to install the update before it is installed automatically, you will need to check for updates.
Must admit I haven't a clue what everyone is writing about.
I get the warning triangle and notification every time I start the computer.
No easy means of solving the problem and getting rid of this message.
Just hope it isn't something serious
I was on the chat feature with a representative yesterday. If you have an active anti virus program everything should be fine. They are aware that there is a bug in the program and a technology team is working to resolve itI was on the chat feature with a representative yesterday.

This issue appeared to have been resolved (I just waited for an update to fix it), but now it is back. This time there isn't even a toggle to turn LSA on/off.
Is this basically the same issue, and is my device secure?
same here, lol
The 3rd May update to KB5007651 (Version 1.0.2303.28002) has caused this issue for me for the first time.
I upgraded to Windows 11 on 28th April and all was fine until today when KB5007651 1.0.2303.28002 was installed. Now I have the Local Security Authority protection is off warning.
