I'm not entirely sure about the effectiveness of option C. Logging failed attempts sounds useful, but can it really deter determined attackers?

I remember discussing the importance of multi-factor authentication in class, so option A seems like a good choice with the primary password and security questions.

Using family member names as passwords is a bad idea. Those are easy for others to guess, especially colleagues who might know personal details about you.
