An administrator notices that former temporary employees’ accounts are still active on a domain. Which of the following can be implemented to increase security and prevent this from happening?
A. Implement a password expiration policy. B. Implement an account expiration date for permanent employees. C. Implement time of day restrictions for all temporary employees. D. Run a last logon script to look for inactive accounts.
Answer: D
Explanation: You can run a script to return a list of all accounts that haven’t been used for a number of days, for example 30 days. If an account hasn’t been logged into for 30 days, it’s a safe bet that the user the account belonged to is no longer with the company. You can then disable all the accounts that the script returns. A disabled account cannot be used to log in to a system. This is a good security measure. As soon as an employee leaves the company, the employees account should always be disabled.
