Navigate to Local Computer Policy >> Computer Configuration >> Windows Settings >> Security Settings >> Local Policies >> User Rights Assignment. If the following accounts or groups are not defined for the "Deny log on as a batch job" user right, this is a finding: - Guests Group For server core installations, run the following command: Secedit /Export /Areas User_Rights /cfg c:\path\filename.txt Review the text file. If the following SID(s) are not defined for the "SeDenyBatchLogonRight" user right, this is a finding: S-1-5-32-546 (Guests)

The "Deny log on as a batch job" user right defines accounts that are prevented from logging on to the system as a batch job, such as Task Scheduler.
