Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity

Description
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 disabling actions will support account management procedures. When device management accounts are disabled, user or service accessibility may be affected. Auditing also ensures authorized active accounts remain enabled and available for use when required.

Review the switch configuration to determine if it automatically audits account disabling. The configuration should look similar to the example below:

archive
log config
logging enable

Note: Configuration changes can be viewed using the show archive log config all command.

If account disabling is not automatically audited, this is a finding.
