Selected Answer: BD
B. PermitEmptyPasswords no - This line ensures that empty passwords are not permitted, which is important for security as it prevents users from having blank passwords. D. PermitRootLogin yes - This line allows root login directly, which is generally considered a security risk. Changing it to "no" would disallow direct root login, requiring users to log in as a regular user and then switch to root using sudo or su, which is a more secure practice. So, the correct options are B and D.

No.. PermitEmptyPassword no sholdn't be changed. The question asks "if present, must be changed". If you want to make it secure, you must have that option set as NO. This answer is corret. B and D
