Google Workspace Associate Administrator — Question 35

Your organization has experienced a recent increase in unauthorized access attempts to your company’s Google Workspace instance. You need to enhance the security of user accounts while following Google-recommended practices. What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Disable password recovery options to prevent unauthorized individuals from accessing user accounts.
• B. Implement a strong password policy and enable text messages as the 2-Step Verification (2SV) using text messages.
• C. Enforce the use of physical security keys as the 2-Step Verification (2SV) method for all users.
• D. Enforce a strong password policy that requires users to include special characters, numbers, and uppercase letters.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because using physical security keys for 2-Step Verification (2SV) provides a higher level of security than other methods. While options B and D suggest enhancing password policies, they do not offer the same level of protection as physical keys. Option A is counterproductive, as disabling password recovery can hinder legitimate users from accessing their accounts if they forget their passwords.
