1.2 Ensure That Multi-Factor Authentication is Enabled for All Non-Service Accounts (Manual)
Profile Applicability
- Level 1
Description
Setup multi-factor authentication for Google Cloud Platform accounts.
Rationale
Multi-factor authentication requires more than one mechanism to authenticate a user. This secures user logins from attackers exploiting stolen or weak credentials.
Impact
None documented.
Audit Procedure
From Google Cloud Console
For each Google Cloud Platform project, folder, or organization:
- Identify non-service accounts.
- Manually verify that multi-factor authentication for each account is set.
Expected Result
All non-service accounts should have multi-factor authentication enabled.
Remediation
From Google Cloud Console
For each Google Cloud Platform project:
- Identify non-service accounts.
- Setup multi-factor authentication for each account.
Default Value
By default, multi-factor authentication is not set.
