Description:
All users should have a password change date in the past.
Rationale:
If a users recorded password change date is in the future then they could bypass any set password expiration.
Remediation:
Investigate any users with a password change date in the future and correct them. Locking the account, expiring the password, or resetting the password manually may be appropriate.
Parameter:
[yes/no]
Technical Mechanism:
Investigate any users with a password change date in the future and correct them. Locking the account, expiring the password, or resetting the password manually may be appropriate.
