Information

The macOS system must disable the system settings pane for Siri.

GROUP ID: V-277116
RULE ID: SV-277116r1148800

The System Settings pane for Siri must be hidden.

Hiding the System Settings pane prevents users from configuring Siri. Enabling any service increases the attack surface for an intruder. By disabling unnecessary services, the attack surface is minimized.

Solution

Configure the macOS system to disable the system settings pane for Siri by installing the "com.apple.systempreferences" configuration profile.
