You want to set an account policy that locks a user’s account after four consecutive failed logon attempts. Which of the following should you do?
  1. Set the Account lockout duration value to 3.
  2. Set the Account lockout threshold value to 0.
  3. Set the Account lockout threshold value to 4.
  4. Set the Reset account lockout counter after value to 4.
Explanation
Answer - C - To lock a user’s account after four consecutive failed logon attempts, set the Account lockout threshold value to 4.

Key Takeaway: Account lockout threshold determines the number of failed logon attempts that causes a user account to be locked out. You can set a value between 0 and 999 failed logon attempts. If you set the value to 0, the account will never be locked out. If you set the account lockout duration to 0, the account will be locked out until an administrator explicitly unlocks it.
