Ensure root user has a dedicated home directory

HochStufe 1Automatisiertaix

Beschreibung

The root user must have a dedicated home directory and not use / as their home directory. By default, the home directory for the root user on AIX is /. This means that all configuration files and directories it creates are visible to all users and may be accessible if the root user has a weak umask setting. Audit: automated read-only check derived from the CIS audit procedure; it prints "compliant" when the control is met.
