Windows permits an anonymous user to carry out specific actions, such as listing the names of domain accounts and network shares. This functionality proves useful in scenarios when an administrator needs to provide access to users in a trusted domain lacking a reciprocal trust agreement. By default, the Everyone security identifier (SID) is excluded from the token generated for anonymous connections. Consequently, permissions assigned to the Everyone group don’t extend to anonymous users.

Containers offer many benefits, including lightweight portability from one environment to another, but they add a layer of complexity to application security that can introduce additional risks. There are many ways a container can become vulnerable to attack: through its source code, how the container is built, how the container is configured, how it secures secrets, and how it interacts with the host and other containers. Each of these avenues has its own security solutions and best practices.

Struggling to manage vulnerabilities in your Kubernetes environment? You’re not alone.

The SQL Server Audit object gathers individual occurrences of server or database-level actions and sets of actions for monitoring purposes. This audit operates at the SQL Server instance level, allowing for multiple audits per instance. Upon defining an audit, you designate the destination for result output. Before beginning a SQL Server audit pay attention to the limitations and restrictions associated with database audit specifications.

Interactive logon: Machine inactivity limit is among the 9 Interactive logon security settings. If a user hasn’t been active on their Windows session for a while and surpasses the set limit, this setting typically controls the duration of inactivity allowed before the user is automatically logged out of their session on a machine. The recommended state for this setting is: 900 or fewer second(s), but not 0.
