Description Requires that prerequisites are deployed to the policy assignment scope. For details, visit https://aka.ms/gcpol. This definition is not supported on Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2. Managing user accounts using Azure Active Directory is a best practice for management of identities. Reducing local machine accounts helps prevent the proliferation of identities managed outside a central system. Machines are non-compliant if local user accounts exist that are enabled and not listed in the policy parameter.
