Candidate 4: I believe role-based access control is more effective, as it restricts access based on user roles.

I'm still not convinced. Aren't there issues with password recovery systems being abused by attackers too? I think the best all-around solution is the account lockout policy. It may be a bit inconvenient, but it's the most robust defense against brute forcing.

Haha, 'easy peasy'? What are you, five years old? But you know, I kind of like that idea. A good password recovery system could really foil those brute force attacks. I'm going with D as well.

You guys are overthinking this. The answer is clearly D - secure password recovery. If you have a strong password reset process, it doesn't matter if someone tries to brute force your account, they won't be able to get in anyway. Easy peasy!

Hmm, I don't know. Logging attacks is good, but it doesn't actually stop them. I'm leaning towards C - role-based access control. If you limit what users can do based on their role, it makes it a lot harder for attackers to gain meaningful access, even if they guess a password.

I'm not sure, the account lockout policy seems a bit heavy-handed to me. What if I accidentally get locked out of my own account? I was thinking B - automated security logging might be a better option. That way you can at least track the attack and respond accordingly.

Ugh, brute force attacks are the worst! I hate when hackers try to guess my password over and over again. This question is going to be tough, but I think the answer is A - account lockout policy. That's the best way to stop those persistent brute force attempts, right?
