Scroll down in the Category Selection to select the Security Misconfiguration entry, from there verify that Information Disclosure is checked. If it’s not the case, clicked on it to enable it. All you have to do now is to press the OK button at the bottom to save your configuration and then scan/rescan your asset to get the assessment done.
