Agreed B. Quoting the Splunk Reference URL https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.5/Security/AboutsecuringyourSplunkconfigurationwithSSL "You can turn on SSL encryption using the default certificate to provide encryption and compression. However, communication using the default certificate does not provide secure authentication, as the certificate password is supplied with every installation of Splunk software. The default certificates are set to expire threee years after initial startup, and forwarder to indexer communications will fail at this point."

Selected Answer: B
The correct answer is B. useClientSSLCompression is set to "true" by default. The only time it does not encrypt the passwords is if the inputs.conf or outputs.conf are configured in an app directory.
