The VMM must disable local account identifiers (individuals, groups, roles, and devices) after 35 days of inactivity.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-207395 SRG-OS-000118-VMM-000590 SV-207395r984214_rule Medium
Description
Inactive identifiers pose a risk to systems and applications because attackers may exploit an inactive identifier and potentially obtain undetected access to the system. Owners of inactive accounts will not notice if unauthorized access to their user account has been obtained. VMMs need to track periods of inactivity and disable local account identifiers after 35 days of inactivity.
