1.5 CISC-ND-000120

Information

The Cisco switch must be configured to automatically audit account removal actions.

GROUP ID: V-220522
RULE ID: SV-220522r960786

Account management, as a whole, ensures access to the network device is being controlled in a secure manner by granting access to only authorized personnel. Auditing account removal actions will support account management procedures. When device management accounts are terminated, user or service accessibility may be affected. Auditing also ensures authorized active accounts remain enabled and available for use when required.

Solution

Configure the switch to log account removal using the following commands:

SW4(config)#archive
SW4(config-archive)#log config
SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#logging enable
SW4(config-archive-log-cfg)#end
