CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 658

A technician is configuring a workstation's security settings, and the following options are available:
• Account lockout policy
• Group policy
• Two-factor authentication
• Password complexity requirements
• Firewalls
• User accounts
• Access control lists
• Antivirus software

Which of the following settings should the technician configure to deploy strong password enforcement across the enterprise?

Answer options

• A. Account lockout policy
• B. Group policy
• C. Two-factor authentication
• D. Access control lists

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct choice, Group policy, allows for centralized management of password policies across multiple systems, ensuring consistent enforcement of strong password requirements. The other options, while important for security, do not directly enforce password complexity and strength across the enterprise.
