Securing Mac workstations
Ryan Faas yesterday published the latest addition to his Workstation Security series, "." The article suggests hiding usernames, advises against using password hints, and warns not to enable fast user switching in Mac OS X. Further topics include setting screensaver passwords or encouraging users to make use of the Mac OS X Keychain's Lock Screen feature.
