Control: 1.20 Ensure that 'Owners can manage group membership requests in the Access Panel' is set to 'No'

Description

Restrict security group management to administrators only.

Restricting security group management to administrators only prohibits users from making changes to security groups. This ensures that security groups are appropriately managed and their management is not delegated to non-administrators.

  1. From Azure Home select the Portal Menu
  2. Select Azure Active Directory
  3. Then Groups
  4. Select General in settings
  5. Set Owners can manage group membership requests in the Access Panel to No

Please note that at this point of time, there is no Azure CLI or other API commands available to programmatically conduct security configuration for this recommendation.
