A company has client computers that run Windows 8.
The company implements the following security requirements:
– All client computers must use two-factor authentication.
– At least one authentication method must include more than four characters or gestures.
You need to choose authentication methods that comply with the security requirements.
Which two authentication methods should you choose?(Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
Choose two.)
A.
PIN
B.
Biometric authentication
C.
Picture Password
D.
Microsoft Account
Explanation:
More than 4 characters are of course supported withthe Microsoft Account.
It is something the user knows. The picture password would be another thing the user knows (gestures).
So there’s only MS Account and Biometric authentication left.
Two-factor authentication requires the use of two of the three authentication factors:
Something the user knows (e.g., password, PIN);
Something the user has (physical Object) (e.g., ATMcard, smart card); and
Something the user is (e.g., biometric characteristic, such as a fingerprint).
The factors are identified in the standards and regulations for access to U.S. Federal Government systems.
