Overview
This article illustrates how to implement PCI DSS v3 Section 8.1 via Windows Group Policy.
Settings
The only 8.1 requirements that can be set via group policy are Sections: 8.1.6 and 8.1.7. See the image below.
Note: When you enable "Account lockout duration" Group Policy requires "Reset account lockout counter after" be enabled, this is not a PCI requirement, but rather a dependency imposed by Microsoft.
