(...) generates the warning that using a domain account for a credential is not recommended. Using a local account eliminates potential exposure of domain credentials that could be used on other servers.

When using credentials with DSC resources, prefer a local account over a domain account when possible.
If there is a '' or '@' in the Username property of the credential, then DSC will treat it as a domain account. There is an exception for "localhost", "127.0.0.1", and "::1" in the domain portion of the user name.
