    Disable User Account Control (UAC) prompts for active user accounts.
  4. D
    Open Event Viewer to audit real-time interactive user logons.

Cevap

Configure a screensaver password requirement with a short idle timeout.
Configuring a screensaver password requirement paired with a short idle timeout ensures that when an employee steps away, the workstation locks automatically after the specified time limit, requiring proper authentication to unlock.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary security requirement.
The requirement is to automatically lock unattended user sessions to prevent unauthorized access.
Physical security best practices require that logged-in workstations lock automatically when left unattended.
2
Evaluate workstation security controls for automatic session locking.
Setting a password-protected screensaver with a low inactivity timeout forces the system to require re-authentication.
This directly mitigates the risk of unauthorized physical access to open user sessions.
