Question

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?
  • A. SSO Correct
  • B. LEAP
  • C. MFA
  • D. PEAP

Explanation

Single sign-on (SSO) lets employees use one set of credentials, here their domain credentials, to access many applications, including SaaS applications federated with the company's identity provider. MFA adds more authentication factors but does not reduce the number of credentials. LEAP and PEAP are EAP methods for wireless network authentication, not SaaS sign-in.
