You have been asked to provide an account for an outside consultant, who needs limited access to the network for a very short period of time. Which type of account will you give this person?
The correct answer to the following question will be "Guest account".
Explanation:
Windows Guest account is a standard, local client account, with quite limited authorizations. It can't access other user account libraries and user files. Only on the desktop and in its user folders can it create files-nowhere else in your PC can it create files and folders.
The Guest account is a Windows minimum-privilege account that occurs on all Windows computers. Users who don't have a specified account are open, and need to access a Windows system from time to time. Users who log on to use the Guest account can access local data and applications, but can not install hardware or software.
