Scanning Diagnostics: Failed to enable Windows Services
Description
The following information is for Scan Diagnostic purposes only, and is not indicative of a detected vulnerability.
The template is configured to Enable Windows Services, but the scan engine failed to do this. This is likely due to the provided credentials lacking the required permissions to remotely enable services.
Windows Registry access is critical to accurate Vulnerability and Policy scans. The registry contains information that is used to detect software, services and vulnerabilities. It is also used to ascertain certain configuration options that are required for policy assessments.
