Q7240020 - I'm using WMI for my Windows checks. Do I retrieve the same data with WinRM as I used to retrieve through DCOM?

Yes, the same WMI data can be retrieved through both WinRM and DCOM. The difference is in the method of accessing the data and the security protocols used. WinRM provides a more secure and flexible way to access WMI data compared to DCOM. The WMI data itself is the same regardless of which protocol is used to access it.
