CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 133

A company moved its on-premises applications to several SaaS providers. As a result, the security team is concerned about accounts being compromised. Which of the following should the security team implement to reduce this risk?

Answer options

• A. Multifactor authentication
• B. Single sign-on
• C. Federation
• D. Role-based access control
• E. Virtual private network

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Implementing Role-based access control (RBAC) helps limit access to sensitive information based on the roles assigned to users, reducing the likelihood of account compromise. While multifactor authentication, single sign-on, federation, and virtual private network are important security practices, they do not specifically restrict access based on user roles, making RBAC the most effective solution in this scenario.
