Practice question 165 of 498 · medium

A helpdesk account cannot hold an executive’s role but can reset that executive’s credentials. What matters in privilege evaluation?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.Only the absence of a direct executive role assignment
  2. B.Only its inability to edit Azure virtual machines
  3. C.The indirect identity-control path
  4. D.Only the helpdesk account’s MFA registration
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • The indirect identity-control path

Credential-reset authority can enable control of the executive identity. A missing direct role, MFA, and unrelated VM restrictions do not eliminate that indirect privileged path.
