This policy setting determines whether users can increase the base priority class of a process. (It is not a privileged operation to increase relative priority within a priority class.) This user right is not required by administrative tools that are supplied with the operating system but might be required by software development tools. Countermeasure: Verify that only Administrators have the Increase scheduling priority user right assigned to them. Potential Impact: None. This is the default configuration.


Parameter:
