Disabling Apple watches is a necessary step to ensuring that the information system retains a session lock until the user reestablishes access using authorized identification and authentication procedures.
Audit:
Verify the macOS system is configured to prevent Apple Watch from terminating a session lock with the following command:
/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript << EOS
$.NSUserDefaults.alloc.initWithSuiteName('com.apple.applicationaccess')\
.objectForKey('allowAutoUnlock').js
EOS
If the result is not "false", this is a finding
Remediation:
Configure the macOS system to prevent Apple Watch from terminating a session lock by installing the "com.apple.applicationaccess" configuration profile with 'allowAutoUnlock' key set to false
Parameter:
[Yes/No]
Technical Mechanism:
Configure the macOS system to prevent Apple Watch from terminating a session lock by installing the "com.apple.applicationaccess" configuration profile with 'allowAutoUnlock' key set to false
