Empower 3 - Impact of SMB signing GPOs - Does Waters verify alternative Windows configurations? - WKB203262

ENVIRONMENT

• Empower 3

ANSWER

Waters has not tested particular configurations of these settings outside of their default values. Therefore, this particular configuration has likely not been formally tested. Customers are advised to perform testing in a non-production environment to ensure there is no adverse effect on their Empower deployment.

Our recommendation is to test for any issues in a development environment prior to deployment in a production environment.
