CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 451
Which of the following security concepts is accomplished when granting access after an individual has logged into a computer network?
Answer options
- A. Authorization
- B. Identification
- C. Non-repudiation
- D. Authentication
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Authorization is the process of granting access rights to a user after they have been authenticated. Identification refers to the process of recognizing a user, while authentication verifies their identity. Non-repudiation ensures that a user cannot deny their actions, but it does not pertain to access control directly.
