Explanation

Explanation: Password protect the screen saver - Enabling this policy causes all screen savers to be password-protected. That is, to restore the normal desktop when ascreen saver is displayed, the user must enter his or her password. Therefore, someone who leaves the computer for a time doesn't leave its display open to anyone who walks by and jiggles the mouse. (However, no policy explicitly requires users to use a screen saver. If you want to do that, configure a screen saver and then enable the Hide Screen Saver Tab policy in this same folder, which prevents users from changing your screen saver configuration.) Further more Domain Policy settings take precedence over user settings. Incorrect answers: A: Configuring each client computer implies unnecessary administrative effort. B: You should also configure the domain policy to password protect the screensaver on resume. D: A new domain policy , not a local security policy, forcing the screen server on all the computers , should be configured. Washington, 2003, Chapter 19
