SV-77845r1_rule Alternate operating systems must not be permitted on the same system.

Vulnerability discussion

Allowing other operating systems to run on a secure system may allow security to be circumvented.

Check content

Verify the system does not include other operating system installations. Run "Advanced System Settings". Select the "Advanced" tab. Click the "Settings" button in the "Startup and Recovery" section. If the drop-down list box "Default operating system:" shows any operating system other than Windows 10, this is a finding.

Fix text

Ensure Windows 10 is the only operating system on a device. Remove alternate operating systems.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
