A system that does not require authentication when resuming from sleep may provide access to unauthorized users. Authentication must always be required when accessing a system. This setting ensures users are prompted for a password when the system wakes from sleep (on battery).
To fix this configure the policy value for
Computer Configuration
|_ Administrative Templates
|_ System
|_ Power Management
|_ Sleep Settings
|_ Require a password when a computer wakes (on battery) to "Enabled".
