VisokaNivo 1Automatskamacos

Opis

The root account is a superuser account that has access privileges to perform any actions and read/write to any file on the computer. With some versions of Linux, the system administrator may commonly use the root account to perform administrative functions. Previous versions of the benchmark included a graphical check for the audit and remediation as well as a different Terminal command for the remediation.
