Question

A user attempts to log in to a website and receives a prompt to update their password. Which of the following is this an example of?
  • A. Password privacy
  • B. Password history
  • C. Password complexity
  • D. Password expiration Correct

Explanation

Password expiration (maximum password age) forces users to change a password after a set period, so the next sign-in prompts for a new one. Password history prevents reusing previous passwords, password complexity sets character requirements for the new password, and password privacy is about not sharing it; none of these trigger the change prompt.
