This security setting determines whether CTRL + ALT + DEL must be pressed before a user logs on .
If this policy is enabled on a computer , the user does not have to press CTRL + ALT + DEL to log on. Bypassing CTRL + ALT + DELETE exposes users to attempts to intercept passwords. Pressing CTRL + ALT + DEL ensures that users communicate through a trusted path when entering passwords.
If this policy is disabled , each user must press CTRL + ALT + DEL before logging on to Windows.
Default setting on domain computers: Enabled: At least Windows 8 / Disabled: Windows 7 or earlier.
Default setting on standalone computers: Enabled.
