<br> Windows service for application access to downloaded maps. This service is started on- <br> demand by application accessing downloaded maps. <br> <br> Mapping technologies can unwillingly reveal your location to attackers and other software <br> that picks up the information. In addition, automatic downloads of data from 3rd-party <br> sources should be minimized when not needed. Therefore this service should not be <br> needed in high security environments. <br> <br> Fixtext: <br> Fix: <br> (1) GPO: Computer ConfigurationWindows SettingsSecurity SettingsSystem ServicesDownloaded Maps Manager <br> <br> (2) REG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesMapsBroker!Start <br>
