CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 396

A technician needs to configure security settings on a Windows 10 workstation. Which of the following should the technician configure to limit password attempts?

Answer options

• A. Account Lockout Policy
• B. User Access Control
• C. System Protection
• D. Firewall

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Account Lockout Policy is specifically designed to set limits on the number of failed login attempts, thereby enhancing security by preventing brute force attacks. User Access Control, System Protection, and Firewall serve different security purposes and do not directly manage password attempt limits.
