Fix Recommendation

Configure Ubuntu OS to disable the Ctrl-Alt-Delete sequence when using a graphical user interface.

Create or edit a file named /etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-screensaver with the following contents:

[org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys]
logout=""

Update the dconf settings:

$ sudo dconf update

Check Contents

Verify Ubuntu OS is not configured to reboot the system when Ctrl-Alt-Delete is pressed when using a graphical user interface by using the following command:

Note: If no graphical user interface is installed, this requirement is not applicable.

$ gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys logout
@as []

If the "logout" key is bound to an action, is commented out, or is missing, this is a finding.
