Disable NetBIOS

[Kyle Woods]

For our client security audits, and PEN testing events, we are required to disable NetBIOS on the network adapters.  The below script is what we run when an asset registers with Pulseway.

 

$key = "HKLM:SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\NetBT\Parameters\Interfaces"
Get-ChildItem $key |
foreach { Set-ItemProperty -Path "$key\$($_.pschildname)" -Name NetbiosOptions -Value 2 -Verbose}
