The macOS system must disable unattended or automatic login to the system.
Description
Discussion Text
Automatic login must be disabled.
When automatic logins are enabled, the default user account is automatically logged on at boot time without prompting the user for a password. Even if the screen is later locked, a malicious user would be able to reboot the computer and find it already logged in. Disabling automatic logins mitigates this risk.
