Question

The IT department has rejected the password you submitted for approval to join the network. Your suggestion was "bobbie." Why did IT reject your choice?
1 Someone else is already using "bobbie."
2 The word does not meet your company's policy for choice of passwords.
3 It will be confusing because it could be written down as "Bobby" by mistake.
4 Because everyone knows you have a dog called Bobbie, so the password is too predictable.

Answer 1

4. Although all of them could be true, this one is most acurate :)

Answer 2

My choice would be option 2.

1: Multiple people with the same password is technically not a problem, as long as they don't know it of eachother.

2: Every company has password complexity rules, such as minimum length requirements and the use of special characters, so it makes sense that your choice does not meet those requirements.

3: Doesn't make sense. Passwords are generally case sensitive so it is up to you to get the casing right.

4: Passwords are confidential, so validity should be checked by an algorithm, not a person. No other human with knowledge about your pets  should be viewing your password.
