Humongous Insurance is an online healthcare insurance company. During an annual security audit a security firm tests the strength of the company's password policy and suggests that Humongous Insurance implement password history policy.
What is the likely reason that the security firm suggests this?
Implementing a password history policy helps prevent the reuse of old passwords. This is crucial because if there have been previous password breaches, users might be inclined to reuse their old passwords, which could still be vulnerable. Preventing the reuse of these compromised passwords enhances security by ensuring that new, unique passwords are used, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.
Lets go for C with this one Just think about it ;)
I strongly agree.
It´s C B would be the correct answer against dictonary attacks
it is c
I totally agree with C being the answer
B. Past passwords of users contained dictionary words.
but that wouldn't matter with past passwords, only current ones. Past passwords are a danger when they have been exposed and are re-used.
correct is C
The Enforce password history policy setting determines the number of unique new passwords that must be associated with a user account before an old password can be reused. Password reuse is an important concern in any organization. Many users want to reuse the same password for their account over a long period of time. "C.)" it is!
I agree c just makes sense
lies, its not B
Hi! so i check the answer in a lot of test dumps and all of them say that B is the correct answer. And i think that C make sense, but for the exam and the books, B IT IS THE CORRECT ANSWER!! Good luck!
