Hello!

I took a very quick look into this.

  1. The account is used for some very core innovator functionality. It is similar to the vault admin as a system account which is not intended to be logged into manually, but is used by the system.
  2. It is not a security issue. This account exists on every modern instance of Aras Innovator.
  3. The account cannot be deactivated without causing issues in the platform.

Let me know if you have additional questions!

    Hi AJ,

    thanks for your replies.

    If the account is not intedend to log in manually, can we disable the flag "Logon Enabled"? Or will then the working of Innovator be harmed?

    Can you explain a little bit more, for what the account is needed? (Maybe write a PM or mail to me).
