Microsoft network client: Send unencrypted password to connect to third-party SMB servers If this security setting is enabled, the Server Message Block (SMB) redirector is allowed to send plaintext passwords to non-Microsoft SMB servers that don't support password encryption during authentication. Sending unencrypted passwords is a security risk. Default: Disabled.
