Posture check · Account security

Enabled privileged account with no recent logon ​(T1078)

No logon has been seen within the inactive limit for the account's type: 90 days for users, 180 for service accounts, 30 for computers. Accounts with no recorded logon count as inactive.

Why it matters

Nobody logs on with this account, so nobody would notice an attacker taking it over.

How GraphnAI finds it

It runs after every sync, on each connected domain or tenant on its own. It applies to Active Directory.

It reads:

  • The directory attributes accountEnabled and lastLogonTimestamp
  • The privilege tier classification

Tiered Fidelity™ level: Theoretical

Every finding from this check carries the Theoretical level.

  1. TheoreticalThis checkConfigured in the directory. Nothing else checked.
  2. ConstrainedA constraint on it has been checked.
  3. ValidatedTelemetry has seen it in use.

How Select Fire™ fixes it

How to fix it

Disable the account if it's no longer needed. If it is needed, confirm who owns it.

What Select Fire changes

Select Fire opens from the finding and simulates each change on your live graph before anything changes in your directory.

  1. Disable user For user accounts and service accounts.Semi-Auto, or Full-Auto when an Admin allows this action and every Full-Auto check passes. Never on a Tier 0 or Tier 1 account.

    Disabling the account stops every logon and anything still running as it. The account and its permissions stay in place and it can be enabled again.
