SslFlags = '1'
hostname = $CertificateSubject
}
)
AuthenticationInfo = `
DSC_WebAuthenticationInformation
{
Anonymous = $true
Basic = $false
Digest = $false
Windows = $true
}
}Suggested solution
Set the properties in object DSC_WebAuthenticationInformation
in Windows like:
DSC_WebAuthenticationInformation
{
Anonymous = $true
Basic = $false
Digest = $false
Windows = DSC_WebAuthenticationInformationAdvanced
{
ExtendedProtection = 'On' #on, off, Accept
KernelModeProtection = #true #boolean
}
}

This could also be a separate resource
WebSiteAuthenticationAdvancedSettings(naming is just a suggestion) if the settings are not required to be set on the same time as creation of the website.
