The Dangerous Windows Groups report shows all SQL Server instances that grant access to any OS-controlled Windows Group.

This report does not apply to Azure SQL Database and Amazon RDS for SQL Server instances.

OS-controlled Windows Groups allow access to almost any Windows Account access to a SQL Server Instance, causing a high-security risk. To guarantee a secure environment, consider removing all SQL Logins for these groups or their parent groups from all SQL Server instances.
