Exam CIPT topic 1 question 96 discussion

The best recommendation to minimize the potential privacy risk from this weakness would be A. Implement a CAPTCHA system. A CAPTCHA system can help prevent automated attacks, such as brute force or password spraying attacks, by requiring users to prove they are human before they can proceed. This would effectively limit the number of invalid login attempts because an attacker would need to solve a CAPTCHA challenge for each attempt, which is computationally expensive and time-consuming. This makes automated attacks much less feasible. Please note that this should be used in conjunction with other security measures like account lockouts after a certain number of failed attempts, strong password policies, and encryption to provide a comprehensive security solution.
