DESCRIPTION​

Stale enabled computer accounts represent a security risk as they can be compromised and reactivated by attackers. This test identifies enabled computers that have not authenticated to the domain for 180 days or more.

Security Risk:

  • Stale enabled accounts can be reactivated and used for lateral movement
  • May indicate decommissioned systems that were never properly disabled
  • Can be targeted for compromise without detection
  • Should be disabled or removed after verification
