Windows Server 2019 default AutoRun behavior must be configured to prevent AutoRun commands.

Allowing AutoRun commands to execute may introduce malicious code to a system. Configuring this setting prevents AutoRun commands from executing.

If the following registry value does not exist or is not configured as specified, this is a finding:

Registry Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Registry Path: \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\

Value Name: NoAutorun

Type: REG_DWORD Value: 0x00000001 (1)

Configure the policy value for Computer Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Windows Components >> AutoPlay Policies >> "Set the default behavior for AutoRun" to "Enabled" with "Do not execute any autorun commands" selected.
