Title

Local volumes must be formatted using NTFS.

Control

Run "Computer Management". Navigate to Storage >> Disk Management. If the "File System" column does not indicate "NTFS" for each volume assigned a drive letter, this is a finding. This does not apply to system partitions such the Recovery and EFI System Partition.

Discussion

The ability to set access permissions and auditing is critical to maintaining the security and proper access controls of a system. To support this, volumes must be formatted using the NTFS file system.
