Login Window

Ntiva Security Standards - Login Window
Login window

Enable heightened security at the login window while presenting a custom message to your users.

Controls

• Name/password field instead of a list of users
• Client-specific EULA
• Disable auto-login (password required every reboot)
• Disable Console login
• Disable PW Hint
• Disable Guest account

Notes

• The use of a client-specific EULA means that this must be duplicated per client.
• Remind users that they need to start remembering their Mac username, as many are used to seeing a list of users while logging in.
• If a client is using Addigy Identity, their login experience will be in that user interface rather than the native macOS one configured by these settings.
