Command Prompt Execution with "runas" Command
What must be true based on the given scenario?
After Bob runs a command as 'bob_admin', which of the following statements must be true?
A. Bob's password is "bob,3alic."
B. Bob is now logged in as "bob_admin."
C. Bob's account is now an administrator.
D. Bob's password is secure.
Answer:
After Bob runs a command as 'bob_admin', the only definitive conclusion is that he knows the password for the 'bob_admin' account, which is 'bob,3alic'.
When Bob runs the command "runas /user:bob_admin" and successfully launches a Command Prompt after entering a password, it indicates that Bob's password is "bob,3alic", as this is the password he provided which was accepted.
It does not necessarily mean that Bob's account is an administrator account or that his password is secure. The command runas allows a user to run specific tools and programs with different permissions than the user's current logon provides.
Therefore, the only statement that must be true from the given options is that Bob's password is "bob,3alic."
Bob running a command as 'bob_admin' does not confirm his login status as 'bob_admin', nor does it confirm the admin status of his account or the overall security of his password.
