This is a category 1 finding because it will directly log on to the system with administrator privileges when the machine is rebooted. This would give full access to any unauthorized individual who reboots the computer. By default this setting is not enabled. If this setting exists, it should be disabled. If this capability exists, the password may also be present in the registry, and must be removed. |
