Explanation
Salesforce's Password Policies section (under Setup > Security > Password Policies) includes several configurable options. Maximum Invalid Login Attempts (A) locks an account after a defined number of failed login attempts, protecting against brute force attacks. Password Complexity Requirements (D) enforces rules such as requiring a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. Number of Days Until Expiration (E) forces users to change their password periodically, reducing the risk of compromised credentials being used long-term. Option B (Prohibited Password Values) is not a native Salesforce password policy setting. Option C (Require Password Manager App) is not a Salesforce configuration option - password manager usage is a user behavior, not a platform-enforced policy.
