Azure AD User Settings Return 'Error' in Assessor


Product Name

CIS-CAT Pro Assessor v4

Product Version

4.*.*

Date

Jun 21, 2023



 

Problem

On a Windows system where User accounts are provisioned via Azure Active Directory (AAD), the assessment report generated by CIS-CAT Pro Assessor v4 returns an Error result for some or all of the items in the Benchmark category 19 Administrative Templates (User).

This section contains user-based recommendations from Group Policy Administrative Templates (ADMX).

 

Solution

The Recommendations in this section and their associated Artifact Expressions are designed for Users provisioned via local Active Directory deployments, and will not evaluate properly for Azure Active Directory Users (even if the associated Group Policy settings and Registry keys are in place).

If you would like to suggest support for AAD User settings in CIS-CAT Pro Assessor, please open a Feature Enhancement Request (FER) at:
