Ensure that MongoDB is run using a non-privileged, dedicated service account

TinggiLevel 1Otomatismongodb

Deskripsi

The MongoDB service should not be run using a privileged account such as 'root' because this unnecessarily exposes the operating system to high risk. The benchmark rates this recommendation Manual; the automated check covers its objective pass criterion. Passes when every running mongod/mongos process runs as a non-root account (FAIL when none are running).
