DISA STIG recommends

RHEL-10-700960 CAT I

RHEL 10 must disable the x86 Ctrl-Alt-Delete key sequence.

NIST SP 800-53: AC-6(10)

Check

Verify RHEL 10 is not configured to reboot the system when Ctrl-Alt-Delete is pressed with the following command: $ sudo systemctl status ctrl-alt-del.target o ctrl-alt-del.target Loaded: masked (Reason: Unit ctrl-alt-del.target is masked.) Active: inactive (dead) If the "ctrl-alt-del.target" is loaded and not masked, this is a finding.

Fix

Configure RHEL 10 to disable the "ctrl-alt-del.target" with the following command: $ sudo systemctl disable --now ctrl-alt-del.target $ sudo systemctl mask --now ctrl-alt-del.target
