CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-003) — Question 259

When undertaking a cloud migration of multiple SaaS applications, an organization’s systems administrators struggled with the complexity of extending identity and access management to cloud-based assets. Which of the following service models would have reduced the complexity of this project?

Answer options

• A. OpenID
• B. SDN
• C. ZTNA
• D. SWG

Correct answer: A

Explanation

OpenID simplifies the process of managing identities across multiple applications by providing a single sign-on solution, which would have alleviated the complexity faced by the administrators. The other options, such as SDN, ZTNA, and SWG, focus on network management and security, but do not directly address identity and access management in the same way that OpenID does.
