UserRightsAssignment :Could not convert Identity to SID

[rezarms]

I'm using Azure Automation account to deploy my dsc configs containing audit, security and registries. The only issue I have is with UserRightAssignment.

For example I'm using :

 UserRightsAssignment Denyaccesstothiscomputerfromthenetwork {
            Policy       = 'Deny_access_to_this_computer_from_the_network'
            Identity     = 'Guests'
         }

I get the below error

failed to execute Test-TargetResource functionality with error message: Could not convert Identity: Guests, Local Account to SID

Verbose logs showing the problem
