Information

Outdated or unused accounts provide penetration points that may go undetected. Inactive accounts must be deleted if no longer necessary or, if still required, disable until needed.

NOTE: Nessus has provided the target output to assist in reviewing the benchmark to ensure target compliance.

Solution

Regularly review local accounts and verify their necessity. Disable or delete any active accounts that have not been used in the last 35 days.
