## Overview
This module sets and enforces the advanced security policies for windows.
## Module Description
This module uses LGPO.exe (v2.2) to configure the advanced security policies on Windows.
LGPO.exe is a command-line utility that is designed to help automate management of
Local Group Policy. It can import and apply settings from Registry Policy (Registry.pol)
files, security templates, Advanced Auditing backup files, as well as from formatted
“LGPO text” files.
## Setup
### Setup Requirements
This module requires:
- ADMX and ADML files with the policy settings to be set (in `C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions`)
- LGPO.exe needs to be installed in `C:\Windows\System32` (Add the following code)
```puppet
include advanced_security_policy
```
### What advanced_security_policy affects
- Advanced security policies.
- `C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Registry.pol`
- A backup is made of `C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Registry.pol` and is placed in `C:\Management\advanced_security\Registry.pol`
### Beginning with advanced_security_policy
To start using advanced_security_policy,
simply include the module and add the defined type statements in your profile.
Then configure the policies you want to set. (for example in hiera)
## Usage
**When using `Configure SMB v1 client driver` you may also need to set `Configure SMB v1 client` to `['Bowser','MRxSmb20','NSI']` due to dependencies for this service**

Description: The policy name matches the name in the policy editor
#### ensure
Type: 'String'
Default: 'present'
Values: 'present' or 'absent'

#### policy_value
Type: 'String'
Values: 'enabled', 'disabled' or a value
