The following information is for Scan Diagnostic purposes only, and is not indicative of a detected vulnerability.
The scanning user encountered an unexpected error when connecting to the WinRM Service. This could be due to network problems, or unexpected behaviour on the target (e.g. shutdown during a scan).
WinRM access is required for accurate Windows Policy assessments, it is used to collect information on hardening compliance, amongst other Windows configuration data.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
