Check Text ( C-75853r1_chk )
To determine if the system is integrated to a directory service, ask the System Administrator (SA) or Information System Security Officer (ISSO) or run the following command: /usr/bin/sudo dscl localhost -list . | /usr/bin/grep -vE '(Contact | Search | Local)' If nothing is returned, or if the system is not integrated into a directory service infrastructure, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-82805r1_fix)
Integrate the system into an existing directory services infrastructure.
