Why each option
Internet Explorer assigns security zones default levels to control browsing behavior. The Internet zone defaults to Medium security.
Microsoft Internet Explorer sets the Internet zone to a default security level of Medium, which balances usability and protection by allowing most web content while prompting for potentially unsafe downloads or scripts. This is the out-of-the-box configuration before any administrator or user customization.
High is the default for the Restricted Sites zone, not the Internet zone.
Low is not a default for any standard zone and represents minimal security restrictions.
Medium-Low is the default for the Local Intranet zone, not the Internet zone.
