Oh no! No description found. But not to worry. Read from Tasks below how to advance this topic.
Objective: Access to information and IT systems is provided via validated user accounts assigned to a person. It is important to protect login information and to ensure the traceability of transactions and accesses.
Requirements (must): The creating, changing, and deleting of user accounts is conducted.
Unique and personalized user accounts are used.
The use of “collective accounts” is regulated (e.g. restricted to cases where traceability of actions is dispensable).
User accounts are disabled immediately after the user has resigned from or left the organization (e.g. upon termination of the employment contract).
User accounts are regularly reviewed.
The login information is provided to the user in a secure manner.
A policy for the handling of login information is defined and implemented. The following aspects are considered:
- No disclosure of login information to third parties
- not even to persons of authority
- under observation of legal parameters
- No writing down or unencrypted storing of login information
- Immediate changing of login information whenever potential compromising is suspected
- No use of identical login information for business and non-business purposes
- Changing of temporary or initial login information following the 1st login - Requirements for the quality of authentication information (e.g. length of password, types of characters to be used).
The login information (e.g. passwords) of a personalized user account must be known to the assigned user only.
Requirements (should): A basic user account with minimum access rights and functionalities is existent and used.
Default accounts and passwords pre-configured by manufacturers are disabled (e.g. by blocking or changing of password).
User accounts are created or authorized by the responsible body.
Creating user accounts is subject to an approval process (four-eyes principle).
User accounts of service providers are disabled upon completion of their task.
Deadlines for disabling and deleting user accounts are defined.
The use of default passwords is technically prevented.
Where strong authentication is applied, the use of the medium (e.g. ownership factor) is secure.
User accounts are reviewed at regular intervals. This also includes user accounts in customers' IT systems.
Interactive login for service accounts (technical accounts) is technically prevented.

In Cyberday, requirements and controls are mapped to universal tasks. A set of tasks in the same topic create a Policy, such as this one.
In Cyberday, requirements and controls are mapped to universal tasks. Each requirement is fulfilled with one or multiple tasks.
When building an ISMS, it's important to understand the different levels of information hierarchy. Here's how Cyberday is structured.
