Frameworks / PCI DSS 4.0 / 2.2.2 PCI DSS 4.0
Req 2: Secure Configurations
PCI DSS 4.0 2.2.2: 2.2.2 Vendor default accounts managed Vendor default accounts must be handled as follows: (a) where a vendor default account will be used, its default password is changed in line with Requirement 8.3.6; and (b) where it will stay unused, the account is disabled or deleted. Applicability: every vendor default account and password is covered, for example those of operating systems, security software, application and system accounts, POS terminals, payment applications and SNMP defaults; it also applies to components not installed in the entity's environment, such as CDE software and applications consumed through a cloud subscription. Objective under the customized approach: default passwords cannot be used to access system components.

Other controls in Req 2: Secure Configurations You are reading one control. How much of PCI DSS 4.0 have you already done? PCI DSS 4.0 2.2.2 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of PCI DSS 4.0 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 139 of 280 PCI DSS 4.0 controls already carry evidence.
Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 415 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
