Hello!

As it states "This could be due to CredSSP encryption oracle remediation.", with the release of the March 2018 Security bulletin, there was a fix that addressed a CredSSP, “Remote Code Execution” vulnerability (CVE-2018-0886) which could impact RDP connections. 

Have a look at this blog post about possible resolutions / fixes / workarounds.

Hope it helps!

Kind regards,
Leon

Hi lampet,

You need to make sure both your workstations and servers are patched with the March CredSSP patch.  On May Patch Tuesday, Microsoft released a patch that basically enforces the March patch, so if your workstation got the May patch but you're trying to connect to servers that haven't received the March patch, you'll get this error.

As a workaround, you can push a Group Policy out or edit a registry key locally
