Practice question 150 of 498 · hard

A policy requires phishing-resistant authentication for privileged users. Which two pre-enforcement checks reduce avoidable lockout while preserving assurance? Select two.

Select all that apply. Every correct option and no extras are required for credit in the app.

  1. A.Treat SMS as automatically phishing-resistant
  2. B.Test secure recovery and emergency administration paths
  3. C.Confirm users have an allowed registered method
  4. D.Assume compliant devices satisfy every authentication strength
  5. E.Exclude all administrators permanently
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answers

  • Test secure recovery and emergency administration paths
  • Confirm users have an allowed registered method

Allowed methods and recovery validate readiness. SMS is not phishing-resistant, blanket permanent exclusion removes the protection, and device compliance does not substitute for authentication strength.
