macOS must be configured to disable the camera.

Check

Verify the macOS system is configured to disable the camera with the following command:

/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript << EOS
$.NSUserDefaults.alloc.initWithSuiteName('com.apple.applicationaccess')\
.objectForKey('allowCamera').js
EOS

If the result is not "false", this is a finding.

Configure the macOS system to disable the camera by installing the "com.apple.applicationaccess" configuration profile.
