Hi,

if one user account is misused by many people, then simply change user's password to prevent others then rightfull account owner from access. And tell the owner that next spotted account sharing will lead to account ban/block.

Alternatively you may be able to apply session or IP based NTLM. Or even IP based FSSO authentication, so user authentication will be gathered/done on back-end without user's ability to override/change (without significant amount of effort to do so). And so users might get authorized to access some resources even without knowledge that their actions are logged and monitored and can be accounted.
