info:
  name: Trace Flag 3625 Enabled in SQL Server Database Instances
  author: princechaddha
  severity: medium
  description: |
    Ensure that the 3625 trace flag is turned off for all your Google Cloud SQL Server database instances to follow security best practices. Trace flag 3625 controls the format of certain error messages, which may reveal sensitive information if enabled.
  impact: |
    Enabling the 3625 trace flag may expose sensitive information through detailed error messages, potentially violating security best practices and compliance requirements.
  remediation: |
    Disable the 3625 trace flag in your SQL Server database instance configuration to enhance security and protect sensitive information.
