# User Password Not Required

Detects user accounts configured to not require a password. Accounts without a required password can be authenticated without credentials, creating a trivial path for unauthorized access.

**Recommended Actions**

Enable the password requirement for all affected accounts. Set a strong password on any account that previously had none. Review recent activity on affected accounts for signs of unauthorized access.

**Compatibility**
