Control: Azure > CIS v3.0 > 02 - Identity > 02.04 - Ensure Guest Users Are Reviewed on a Regular Basis

Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 1

Microsoft Entra ID has native and extended identity functionality allowing you to invite people from outside your organization to be guest users in your cloud account and sign in with their own work, school, or social identities.

Guest users are typically added outside your employee on-boarding/off-boarding process and could potentially be overlooked indefinitely. To prevent this, guest users should be reviewed on a regular basis. During this audit, guest users should also be determined to not have administrative privileges.
