info:
  name: Contained Database Authentication Enabled in SQL Server Database Instances
  author: princechaddha
  severity: medium
  description: |
    Ensure that the "contained database authentication" database flag is disabled for your Google Cloud SQL Server database instances. This flag, when enabled, allows databases to contain their authentication and can potentially lead to security vulnerabilities.
  impact: |
    Enabling the "contained database authentication" flag can introduce security risks by allowing databases to manage authentication independently, bypassing centralized security controls.
  remediation: |
    Disable the "contained database authentication" flag in your SQL Server database instance configuration to enhance security and enforce centralized authentication.
