Our auditors just wrote us up.  
Here's their statement "The credit Union is not utilizing time/day restrictions in 
Windows.  These setting restrict users from gaining network access during non-business 
hours. If not set appropriately, these accounts can be exploited to gain unauthorized 
access to the network".

We have not dial up connections to the network.  The only thing we have setup is to 
allow a connection to the Exchange server for internet email.  We have eight digit 
passwords and an account is locked out after 3 invalid attempts.  

I don't believe having logon hour restrictions will improve security but I would like 
other opinions.

Opinions???
