Project 13
Creating
Computer User
Accounts
What You??™ll Need
Your computers
Your local network
Cost: $0
Astand-alone personal computer that is accessible by only one person is usually
pretty safe, secure, and private (Internet considerations aside) and thus
doesn??™t usually warrant requiring a username and password to log on. In fact,
the default option for most operating systems is to simply start up and present a main
screen, ready for any command or type of work. By contrast, on a network, it is prudent
to exercise a certain amount of per-user control for computers by creating user
accounts.
User accounts in company settings provide minimal to extensive data privacy and
accountability within documents, shared server resources, and the overall network. At
home, user accounts serve a similar purpose??”but at home, the lack of separate and
secure user accounts is not likely to make you fail an FDA, SOX, or ISO-9001 information
security audit. At home, you should be concerned about such issues as identity
theft and loss of homework, family photos, bank and tax records, and other things that
are important to you and your family that are stored on computers.
