Information
This policy setting ensures that the Operating System is maintained at a supported servicing level.
Rationale:
Systems at unsupported servicing levels will not receive security updates for new vulnerabilities, which leave them subject to exploitation. Systems must be maintained at a servicing level supported by the vendor with new security updates.
Impact:
The Windows Operating System must be at least Microsoft Windows Server Version 1809 (Build 17763.xxx:) or newer.
NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.
