Selected Answer: C
The answer is C A service account is a dedicated, least-privileged account used for automation and scheduled tasks. It minimizes security risks compared to using root credentials or personal administrator credentials. Service accounts can have specific permissions tailored for the playbook's tasks. It avoids hard-coding passwords, which is a major security risk.
