Users that Have Not Logged into Console for More Than 90 Days

Overview

The "Users that Have Not Logged into Console for More Than 90 Days" widget identifies users who have not logged into the AWS Management Console in the past 90 days. This can be an indication of unused accounts, which may pose a security risk if left dormant.

Why It Matters

For IT Engineers:

  1. Account Monitoring:

    • Tracks user activity and helps identify unused accounts, enabling IT teams to manage them efficiently.

  2. Security Hygiene:

    • Identifies accounts that may be at risk of being forgotten or exploited if left dormant.

  3. Operational Efficiency:

    • Helps streamline account deactivation and reduces the overhead of maintaining unused accounts.

For Security Engineers:

  1. Access Risk:

    • Dormant accounts may be more vulnerable to attacks, as they might not be monitored as closely. This widget helps flag such accounts for review.

  2. Compliance:

    • Ensures that inactive accounts are managed according to internal policies or regulatory requirements, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.

  3. Security Best Practices:

    • Prevents security gaps caused by inactive accounts that could become entry points for attackers.
