Question

lauren and her parents reviewed the lesson information on how to stay safe online. when lauren told her parents that she had been using the password \computer1\ for all of her online accounts, her mother suggested that she change it. why did laurens mother suggest she change her password?
○ it could be easily guessed.
○ it contained personal information.
○ it contained only one number.
○ it contained too many letters.

Explanation:

To determine why Lauren's mother suggested changing the password, we analyze each option:

• The password "Computer1" is simple and predictable, so it could be easily guessed.
• It does not contain personal information (like a name, address, or birthday).
• The number of numbers or letters in the password is not the main security concern here.
• The number of letters is not a reason for changing it; security is about guessability, not letter count.

So the most logical reason is that it could be easily guessed.

Answer:

A. It could be easily guessed.
