Last word from me on the subject, as a response to a response...
I was just stating our SarBox objectives, and actually it refers to both the
server room door lock and the CTRL+ALT+DELETE lock. BUT... According to OUR
SarBox objectives, servers AND workstations are supposed to locked when you
leave them and/or have the screen saver set to lock the system after a set
amount of time. I didn't make the rules, but I have to follow them. After
you get in the habit, it's not that big of a deal. But thank you, Enron,
Tyco, Worldcom, etc. etc. etc...

I am finding it really hard to understand how "locking" a machine is more
secure that logging out of it, if you lock it then I can see who locked it,
so you have now given me half the logon information, all I need to figure
out is the password, if you log out of the server and have it configured to
not show the last username then it is more secure, no if's or but's
Too be 100% sure here, the definition of "locked" we are discussing is
CTRL+ALT+DELETE, "Lock Computer", not physically locking the door to the
server room.

Our objectives say "lock".

Vs. logging out of them? Or lock them vs. leaving them wide open?

Some of you obviously haven't been hit with Sarbane-Oxley. Read the
objectives, you'll lock your servers AND your workstations (and that's just
the start of it).

I only wish that was true. If you're the admin, then you must lock it. I
mean, what admin doesn't log onto the servers the administer??? If I find an
admin not ever logging onto a server, then why have I hired them??

References aside, security has to be balanced with practicality. In a large
organization, it would be ridiculous to require locking servers for anything
other than temporary period of time.

Please provide references to "always lock a server..." Microsoft references
would be great. FIPS references would be good too.
Thanks,

I hate to disagree with you, but I couldn't disagree more. In fact, the
Federal Government couldn't disagree with you more.
Security is the top reason. Always lock a server so it can't be logged into
in case it's compromised.
I have to beg to differ with you on John. I go back a long ways on this list
and John has made so many wrong statements, etc., especially to newbie's,
that it speaks for itself.
However, I realize as with all techs, there are varied opinions. I just have
had a rough time over the years with "consultants." I've known many, too
many. Only 1 or 2 knew their salt, (including you.)

Thank you for the kind words Jared, however I have met and communicated with
many great consultants in my time, John being one of them.
My advise to everyone is to logout of your servers, the only time I lock a
server is if I am working on it and need to step away for a minute, why did
the auditors chew you a new hole for logging out of the server?

John, you've confused a workstation with a server. Darn consultants.
I've
never met a knowledgeable consultant!! (Except Mark of course, but that's
rare.)

True, absolutely. When leaving a computer for a short period of time, lock.
The question is whether to leave locked always, or when leaving for an
extended period of time, log off.
