Check Text

Review temporary user accounts for expiration dates. Determine if temporary user accounts are used and identify any that exist. If none exist, this is NA. Domain Controllers: Open "PowerShell". Enter "Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring | FT Name, AccountExpirationDate". If "AccountExpirationDate" has not been defined within 72 hours for any temporary user account, this is a finding. Member servers and standalone or nondomain-joined systems: Open "Command Prompt". Run "Net user [username]", where [username] is the name of the temporary user account. If "Account expires" has not been defined within 72 hours for any temporary user account, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Configure temporary user accounts to automatically expire within 72 hours. Domain accounts can be configured with an account expiration date under "Account" properties. Local accounts can be configured to expire with the command "Net user [username] /expires:[mm/dd/yyyy]", where username is the name of the temporary user account. Delete any temporary user accounts that are no longer necessary.
