Gce Model Questions Vol1 2023 Computer Studies Question 31
Practice objective / multiple choice question 31 from the 2023 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Computer Studies examination.
A company requires passwords to be exactly 8 characters long. Each password must contain at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one digit, and one special character from the set {!, @, #, $}. The remaining characters can be any of the 26 uppercase letters, 26 lowercase letters, 10 digits, or 4 special characters, and characters may repeat. Assuming the worst‑case (minimum) number of possible passwords that satisfy the policy, calculate the entropy in bits using the formula (E = \log_{2}(N)), where (N) is the number of admissible passwords. Is the policy compliant with the recommended minimum entropy of 60 bits? State the entropy (to one decimal place) and answer Yes or No.
