Ensure 'Hide Instance' option is set to 'Yes' for Production SQL Server instances
Descripción
Non-clustered SQL Server instances within production environments should be designated as hidden to prevent advertisement by the SQL Server Browser service. Applies to production instances; reads HideInstance through xp_instance_regread (1 = hidden). Default: By default, this option is disabled (0). Runs one sqlcmd query with its defaults (Windows authentication to the local default instance); set SQLCMDSERVER, SQLCMDUSER and SQLCMDPASSWORD for another instance or SQL authentication. Needs VIEW SERVER STATE / sysadmin-level read access.
