# Ensure All Groups on the System Have Unique Group Names
 
## Description{% #description %}

Change the group name or delete groups, so each has a unique name.

## Rationale{% #rationale %}

To assure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access, groups must be identified uniquely to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system.

## Warning{% #warning %}

Automatic remediation of this control is not available due to the unique requirements of each system.
