Match the following reasons for not storing user passwords in plain text with their corresponding descriptions:

<p>Security = If a website's database is breached, hackers will have access to all of the users' passwords in plain text. Compliance = Many regulations, such as PCI DSS and HIPAA, require websites to store user passwords securely. Usability = Users are more likely to reuse passwords across different websites if they don't have to remember them all. Password Hashing = A one-way function that converts a password into a hash that cannot be reversed.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following potential consequences of storing passwords in plain text with their descriptions:

<p>Account Takeovers = Users are more likely to reuse passwords across different websites if they don't have to remember them all. Data Breach = If a website's database is breached, hackers will have access to all of the users' passwords in plain text. Personal Information Theft = Hackers can log in to the users' accounts and steal their personal information.

Match the following terms related to password security with their corresponding definitions:

<p>Password Hashing = A one-way function that converts a password into a hash that cannot be reversed. Data Breach = Occurs when a website's database is breached and hackers gain access to users' passwords in plain text. Account Takeovers = Can happen if users reuse passwords across different websites and one of the websites is breached. Compliance = Many regulations, such as PCI DSS and HIPAA, require websites to store user passwords securely.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following password storage methods with their level of security:

<p>Plain Text = Not considered to be a secure storage method. Password Hashing = Converts a password into a hash that cannot be reversed, providing a higher level of security. Encryption = Can be reversed with the decryption key, so it is not as secure as password hashing. Salting = Adding a random value to the password before hashing, making it more difficult to crack.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following terms related to password security with their corresponding level of risk:

<p>Plain Text = Highest level of risk, as passwords are easily readable if a data breach occurs. Password Hashing = Lowest level of risk, as even if a data breach occurs, the passwords are not readable. Encryption = Moderate level of risk, as it can be reversed with the decryption key. Salting = Increases the level of security, but the risk depends on the strength of the salt value.</p> Signup and view all the answers
