Information
Ensure that no floppy device is connected to a virtual machine unless required. For a floppy device to be disconnected, the floppyX.present parameter should either not be present or have a value of FALSE.
Rationale:
Removing unnecessary hardware devices can reduce the number of potential attack channels and help prevent attacks.
Solution
To disconnect all floppy drives from VMs, run the following PowerCLI command:
# Remove all Floppy drives attached to VMs
Get-VM | Get-FloppyDrive | Remove-FloppyDrive
The VM will need to be powered off for this change to take effect.
