AOSX-13-001130 - The macOS system must be configured so that users do not have Apple IDs signed into iCloud.

Information

Users should not sign into iCloud, as this leads to the possibility that sensitive data could be saved to iCloud storage or that users could inadvertently introduce viruses or malware previously saved to iCloud from other systems.

Solution

This must be resolved manually.

With the affected user logged on, open System Preferences >> iCloud.

Choose 'Sign Out'.
