Ensure stale applications are reviewed and inactive ones are removed

FaibleNiveau 1Revue manuellegitlab

Description

Ensure stale (inactive) applications are reviewed and removed if no longer in use. Applications that have been inactive for a long period of time are enlarging the surface of attack for data leaks. They are more likely to be improperly managed, and could possibly be accessed by third-party developers as a tool for collecting internal data of the organization or repository in which they are installed. It is important to remove these inactive applications as soon as possible.
