Question 358

An employee’s company account was used in a data breach. Interviews with the employee revealed:

• The employee was able to avoid changing passwords by using a previous password again.

• The account was accessed from a hostile, foreign nation, but the employee has never traveled to any other countries.

Which of the following can be implemented to prevent these issues from reoccurring? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: C, F

    To address the issues mentioned, implementing password history policies will prevent employees from reusing previous passwords and ensure passwords remain unique over time, thereby enhancing security. Additionally, geofencing can restrict account access to specific geographic locations, ensuring that access attempts from unauthorized or foreign locations are blocked, which is particularly useful since the account was accessed from a hostile, foreign nation.

alicia2024Option: B

B. Password complexity - Requiring stronger and more complex passwords can help prevent users from reusing previous passwords and make it harder for attackers to guess or crack passwords. E. Password lockout - Implementing a password lockout policy can prevent unauthorized access to accounts by locking the account after a certain number of failed login attempts. This can help deter attackers who may be attempting to gain access using stolen credentials.
