Security problem with sharing files and printer microsoft networks

Avatar
Dimatrio

Hello,

The admin $ share seems dangerous to security. You can just turn on the register:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ System]
"LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy" = dword: 00000001

And does not activate the protocol "Sharing files and printers microsoft networks" on the NIC?

Do you have any business coming to secure this type of problem?

thank you

    If you want to perform administrative tasks on remote systems, you ned the admin$ share.

    This share can be accessed only by individuals with proper credentials anyway.
