Title

The Windows Remote Management (WinRM) service must not store RunAs credentials.

Control

If the following registry value does not exist or is not configured as specified, this is a finding: Registry Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Registry Path: \SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WinRM\Service\ Value Name: DisableRunAs Value Type: REG_DWORD Value: 1

Discussion

Storage of administrative credentials could allow unauthorized access. Disallowing the storage of RunAs credentials for Windows Remote Management will prevent them from being used with plug-ins.
