I vaguely recall something about account enumeration being a risk, but I’m not convinced it’s the best practice for default passwords. I feel like the password change is more critical.

I practiced a similar question where we had to prioritize security measures. I think granular role-based access is important, but it might not directly address the default password issue.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like two-factor authentication might be more relevant for ongoing security rather than just for default passwords.

Protecting against account enumeration is important, but I think the best answer here is to force a password change. That's the most direct way to address the default password issue.

Two-factor authentication seems like a good idea, but I'm not sure if that's the best solution for just handling default passwords. I'll have to weigh the options carefully.

Okay, I've got this. The key is to force a password change upon initial login. That way, users can't just leave the default password in place and expose the device to potential attacks.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know default passwords can be a security risk, but I'm not sure which of these options is the best approach. I'll have to think it through.

Ah, I see. The key is that the customer has to allow the remote assistance. That makes sense, otherwise it would be a security risk.

I think the answer is D. Voice Readiness. This tool in Cisco Prime should be able to assess the current network's capabilities and determine if it can support the new VoIP system.
