5 Caching of logon credentials will be limited. Description: The default Windows configuration caches the last logon credentials for users who log on interactively to a system. This feature is provided for system availability reasons such as the user’s machine is disconnected from the network or domain controllers are not available. Even though the credential cache is well-protected, storing encrypted copies of users passwords on systems do not always have the same physical protection required for domain controllers.

6 Anonymous enumeration of shares will be restricted. Description: This is a Category 1 finding because it allows anonymous logon users (null session connections) to list all account names and enumerate all shared resources, thus providing a map of potential points to attack the system.

By default, Windows allows anonymous users to list account names and enumerate share names. trueIn a mixed Windows environment, this setting may cause systems with down-level operating systems to fail to authenticate, may prevent their users from changing their passwords, and may cause problems with managing printers and spools.

In domains supporting Exchange 2003 servers and versions of Outlook earlier than Outlook 2003, the setting 'Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares' should be set to 'Disabled' on the Domain Controller Group Policy to allow Outlook to anonymously query the global catalog service.System AdministratorInformation Assurance OfficerECSC-1, PRNK-1

17 Users will be forcibly disconnected when their logon hours expire. Description: Users should not be permitted to remain logged on to the network after they have exceeded their permitted logon hours. In many cases, this indicates that a user forgot to log off before leaving for the day.

The Windows NTLM protocol is retained in later Windows versions for compatibility with clients and servers that are running earlier versions. It is also used to authenticate logons to stand-alone computers that are running later versions. trueSetting this to the required setting may prevent authentication with older operating systems and break some applications.System AdministratorInformation Assurance OfficerIAIA-1, IAIA-2

23 The Ctrl+Alt+Del security attention sequence for logons will be enabled. Description: Disabling the Ctrl+Alt+Del security attention sequence can compromise system security. Because only Windows responds to the Ctrl+Alt+Del security sequence, you can be assured that any passwords you enter following that sequence are sent only to Windows. If you eliminate the sequence requirement, malicious programs can request and receive your Windows password. Disabling this sequence also suppresses a custom logon banner. falseHKSystem AdministratorECSC-1

24 The Deny access to this computer from the network user right on member servers must be configured to prevent access from highly privileged domain accounts and local administrator accounts on domain systems and unauthenticated access on all systems. Description: Inappropriate granting of user rights can provide system, administrative, and other high level capabilities.

The "Deny Access from the Network" right defines the accounts that are prevented from logging on from the network.

In an Active Directory Domain, denying logons to the Enterprise Admins and Domain Admins groups on lower trust systems helps mitigate the risk of privilege escalation from credential theft attacks which could lead to the compromise of an entire domain.

Local administrator accounts on domain-joined systems must also be assigned this right to decrease the risk of lateral movement resulting from credential theft attacks.

The Guests group must be assigned this right to prevent unauthenticated access.
