CIPT Exam - Question 29


Which is NOT a way to validate a person's identity?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

Using a program that creates random passwords is not a method to validate a person's identity. Identity validation typically involves verifying something the person knows, something they have, or something they are. Swiping a smartcard, answering a security question, or using a pattern recognition system are all legitimate methods of identity validation, whereas generating random passwords does not validate the individual's identity but rather creates credentials for access.
