CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 15

A company uses SaaS and IaaS solutions from multiple cloud providers. Users report that this requires them to manage and remember multiple user accounts and passwords. Which of the following solutions should be implemented to fix this issue?

Answer options

• A. SSO
• B. Federation
• C. Password synchronization
• D. Lowered password complexity
• E. Multifactor authentication

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is SSO (Single Sign-On), which allows users to access multiple services with one set of credentials, thus simplifying account management. Federation and password synchronization can also help, but they don't eliminate the need for multiple accounts entirely. Lowered password complexity could weaken security, and multifactor authentication adds security layers but does not address the issue of managing multiple accounts.
