Cause:

The CPM Scanner is failing to authenticate from v10.7. there has been a change in the way the scanner communicates with the Vault from v10.7. This is a known issue.



workaround:


Go to "Configuration Options" --> "Options" --> "Authentication Methods" --> "General" and check what  "SmartLogonEnabled" is set to.

If "SmartLogonEnabled" is set to "Yes", then set it to "No" and save the settings.
