A standalone PowerShell script to assess this control automatically. Review before running it in your environment.

Syntax-checked as valid PowerShell. Not executed here — running it for real needs the actual windows_vista target this check assesses.

# OVAL Definition: oval:mil.disa.fso.windows:def:464
$lockoutPolicy = Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_LocalTimeRestriction
if ($lockoutPolicy -and $lockoutPolicy.ForceLogoff -eq 0) { Write-Output "FAIL"; exit 1 } 
Write-Output "PASS"; exit 0
