<blockquote style="background: white; border: 1px solid black; padding: 1em;">
Obtain a copy of the user control file from the system and verify that there are no duplicate system accounts.<br>
<br>
An example of this might be one of the following:<br>
<br>
*Solaris Unix: etc/passwd
*AIX Unix: etc/passwd
*Linux Unix: etc/passwd

'''Control Stewards Process Narrative'''

The AIX operating system prevents the addition of duplicate Ids. Furthermore, the regular review of administrator IDs listed above serves as a backstop for this control.<br>

AI 3.2 Infrastructure Resource Protection and Availability

Control Objective:

Implement internal control, security and audit ability measures during configuration, integration and maintenance of hardware and infrastructural software to protect resources and ensure availability and integrity. Responsibilities for using sensitive infrastructure components should be clearly defined and understood by those who develop and integrate infrastructure components. Their use should be monitored and evaluated.

Applicability:

Sarbanes-Oxley
HIPAA
GLBA
PCI
FISMA
NIST SP 800-66
Ditscap
Control Exception
User Defined
