Create a token object
This policy setting allows a process to create an access token, which may provide elevated rights to access sensitive data.
When configuring a user right in the SCM enter a comma delimited list of accounts. Accounts can be either local or located in Active Directory, they can be groups, users, or computers.
Counter Measure:
Do not assign the Create a token object user right to any users. Processes that require this user right should use the Local System account, which already includes it, instead of a separate user account that has this user right assigned.
Potential Impact:
None. This is the default configuration.
Parameter:
[list_of_users_followed_by_comma]
