Question 36 (practice exam 7)

Biometric Identification

A method like fingerprint or retina scanning that ensures only authorized users can log in, even if passwords are compromised.

Password Change Policy

Requiring users to change passwords frequently, but it does not directly prevent unauthorized logins during the valid password period.

Username and Password

Relying solely on these credentials can allow unauthorized access if obtained, making it insufficient for preventing unauthorized logins.

Security Cameras

While they can deter and identify logins after the fact, they cannot actively prevent unauthorized logins using compromised credentials.

Multi-factor Authentication

Methods like hardware tokens, one-time passwords, or mobile-based apps used in addition to passwords to enhance login security.

Authentication Principles

Biometric identification aligns with robust authentication by relying on physical characteristics, enhancing access control.

Biometric Identification and Security

It complements physical access controls, surveillance, and monitoring by adding an extra layer of security to prevent unauthorized access.
