MP.JL.CISMACINT.L1.019 Maximum Number of Failed Attempts is set to 5 or less, but not 0

Severity: MediumGraph

Description

CIS Apple MacOS 26 Tahoe Intune Benchark, recommendation 2.9.1.8 (Level 1).

The test passes when an assigned settings catalog policy for macOS sets Declarative Device Management (DDM) > Passcode > Maximum Number of Failed Attempts to 5 or less, but not 0, and no other assigned policy sets it to something else.

Remediation action

  1. In the Microsoft Intune admin center, go to Devices > Configuration and open (or create) a settings catalog policy for macOS.
  2. Add Declarative Device Management (DDM) > Passcode > Maximum Number of Failed Attempts and set it to 5 or less, but not 0.
  3. Assign the policy to your macOS devices, and remove any other assigned policy that sets it to something else.
