CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 525

A data administrator is configuring authentication for a SaaS application and would like to reduce the number of credentials employees need to maintain. The company prefers to use domain credentials to access new SaaS applications. Which of the following methods would allow this functionality?

Answer options

• A. SSO
• B. LEAP
• C. MFA
• D. PEAP

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is SSO (Single Sign-On) because it allows users to access multiple applications with one set of credentials, thus reducing the number of passwords they need to remember. LEAP, MFA, and PEAP do not specifically provide the same seamless access to multiple applications using domain credentials like SSO does.
