Windows Server 2025 users with administrative privileges must have separate accounts for administrative duties and normal operational tasks.

Using a privileged account to perform routine functions makes the computer vulnerable to malicious software inadvertently introduced during a session that has been granted full privileges.

Verify each user with administrative privileges has been assigned a unique administrative account separate from their standard user account. If users with administrative privileges do not have separate accounts for administrative functions and standard user functions, this is a finding.

Ensure each user with administrative privileges has a separate account for user duties and one for privileged duties.
