Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) — Question 64

Which of the following is implemented through scripts or smart agents that replays the users multiple log-ins against authentication servers to verify a user's identity which permit access to system services?

Answer options

• A. Single Sign-On
• B. Dynamic Sign-On
• C. Smart cards
• D. Kerberos

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Single Sign-On, as it allows users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple services without re-entering credentials. Dynamic Sign-On and Smart cards do not function in the same way, while Kerberos is a network authentication protocol that does not specifically involve replaying user log-ins through scripts or agents.
