Discussion

Features such as Credential Guard use virtualization-based security to protect information that could be used in credential theft attacks if compromised. There are a number of system requirements that must be met in order for Credential Guard to be configured and enabled properly. Virtualization-based security and Credential Guard are only available with Windows 11 Enterprise 64-bit version.

Check Procedure

For standalone systems, this is NA.

Open "Settings".

Select "System", then "About".

If "Edition" is not "Windows 11 Enterprise", this is a finding.

If "System type" is not "64-bit operating system...", this is a finding.
