Configure SQL Server services to have a documented, dedicated account. For nondomain servers, consider using virtual service accounts (VSAs).

For standalone domain-joined servers, consider using managed service accounts. For more information, refer to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/configure-windows/configure-windows-service-accounts-and-permissions? For clustered instances, consider using group managed service accounts.
