CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 143

Company A has acquired Company B and is in the process of integrating their cloud resources. Company B needs access to Company A's cloud resources while retaining its 1AM solution. Which of the following should be implemented?

Answer options

• A. Multifactor authentication
• B. Single sign-on
• C. Identity federation
• D. Directory service

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Identity federation, because it allows Company B to access Company A's cloud resources while maintaining its own IAM solution. Options A and B do not directly address the need for integrating identities across different systems, and D, Directory service, does not provide the necessary access control across the two companies' environments.
