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

Click Log and Report. 2. Click Log Settings. 3. Scroll down to Log Settings. 4. Verify Event Logging is set to "All" (for most verbose logging) or "Customize" and include at least the System activity event. If the Event Logging is not set to "All" or "Customize" with System enabled, then account removal is not audited, and this is a finding. or 1. Open a CLI console, via SSH or available from the GUI. 2. Run the following command: # show full-configuration log eventfilter | grep -i 'event\|system' The output should be: set event enable set system enable If event and system parameters are set to disable, then account removal is not audited, and this is a finding.
