Table 5‑21. RDS Security Group Policy Settings (Continued)
Setting Description
If you disable or do not congure this seing, the encryption
level to be used for remote connections to RDS host is not
enforced through Group Policy. However, you can congure a
required encryption level for these connections by using the
Remote Desktop Session Host Conguration tool.
I FIPS compliance can be congured through the
"System cryptography: Use FIPS compliant algorithms for
encryption, hashing, and signing" policy seing in the
Computer > Windows > Security
> Local Policies > Security Options folder or,
through the "FIPS Compliant" seing in Remote Desktop
Session Host Conguration. The FIPS Compliant seing
encrypts and decrypts data sent from the client to the server
and from the server to the client, with the Federal Information
Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-1 encryption algorithms, using
Microsoft cryptographic modules. Use this encryption level
when communications between clients and RDS hosts require
the highest level of encryption. If FIPS compliance is already
enabled through the Group Policy "System cryptography: Use
FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and
signing" seing, that seing overrides the encryption level
specied in this Group Policy seing or in the Remote
Desktop Session Host Conguration tool.
Always prompt for password upon connection
Species whether Remote Desktop Services always prompts
the client for a password upon connection.
You can use this seing to enforce a password prompt for
users logging on to Remote Desktop Services, even if they
already provided the password in the Remote Desktop
Connection client.
By default, Remote Desktop Services allows users to
automatically log on by entering a password in the Remote
Desktop Connection client.
If you enable this seing, users cannot automatically log on to
Remote Desktop Services by supplying their passwords in the
Remote Desktop Connection client. They are prompted for a
password to log on.
If you disable this seing, users can always log on to Remote
Desktop Services automatically by supplying their passwords
in the Remote Desktop Connection client.
If you do not congure this seing, automatic logon is not
specied at the Group Policy level. However, an administrator
can still enforce password prompting by using the Remote
Desktop Session Host Conguration tool.
