I must have missed the point here somewhere.
I got the impression you were talking about your own personal networked PC. In which case removing any spurious accounts (apart from admin and your own) then making sure they are passworded it job done

I'm guessing shared networked pc in an office (shifts..?).
Secpol is very powerful and it's not smart so will only do what you tell it with no sanity check so a little caution required, it can end in tears and rebuilds....

If it is in an office, if there is no physical security then there are various ways to gain access. I have never been in the cracking scene, but I do know that there are tools that fit onto a USB pendrive that can allow a knowledgable user to gain access.
If its your files that are on the machine that you need to secure, you need to actually encrypt them. Relying on windows to do the job is not sufficient. If someone resets the admin password, they can take ownership of your files, even if you use Windows encryption.
