Vulnerability Discussion

Failure to display the logon banner prior to a logon attempt will negate legal proceedings resulting from unauthorized access to system resources.

Check

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\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\

Value Name: LegalNoticeCaption

Value Type: REG_SZ
Value: See message title above

"DoD Notice and Consent Banner", "US Department of Defense Warning Statement" or a site-defined equivalent, this is a finding.

If a site-defined title is used, it can in no case contravene or modify the language of the banner text required in WN11-SO-000075.

Fix

Configure the policy value for Computer Configuration >> Windows Settings >> Security Settings >> Local Policies >> Security Options >> "Interactive logon: Message title for users attempting to log on" to "DoD Notice and Consent Banner", "US Department of Defense Warning Statement", or a site-defined equivalent.

If a site-defined title is used, it can in no case contravene or modify the language of the banner text required in WN11-SO-000075.
