Single Answer
0What purpose do the password history and password minimum age settings have in Windows?
Answer Options
A
To prevent attackers from resetting passwords
B
To prevent brute-force attacks
C
To prevent password reuse
D
To ensure proper password expiration
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
Windows supports both password history and a minimum password age to help prevent users from simply resetting their password over and over again until they can reuse their preferred password. This does not prevent attackers from resetting passwords or using brute-force attacks and doesn’t ensure password expiration.
