CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 248

A cloud administrator implemented SSO and received a business requirement to increase security when users access the cloud environment. Which of the following should be implemented NEXT to improve the company’s security posture?

Answer options

• A. SSH
• B. MFA
• C. Certificates
• D. Federation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Implementing Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) would significantly strengthen the security posture by requiring users to provide additional verification beyond just their password. SSH, certificates, and federation have their own security benefits, but they do not specifically address the need for enhanced user authentication as effectively as MFA does.
