Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect — Question 87

To meet the application security requirements, which two authentication methods must the applications support? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer options

• A. Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML)
• B. NTLMv2
• C. certificate-based authentication
• D. Kerberos

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

The correct answers are A and D because both Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) and Kerberos are widely recognized protocols that enhance application security through robust authentication methods. In contrast, NTLMv2 and certificate-based authentication, while useful, do not meet the specific requirements as effectively as SAML and Kerberos.
