An organization utilizes multiple vendors, each with its own portal that a security analyst must sign in to daily. Which of the following is the best solution for the organization to use to eliminate the need for multiple authentication credentials?
Single Sign-On (SSO) allows users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple applications without needing to re-enter credentials for each one.
It reduces password fatigue, improves security, and streamlines authentication across vendor portals.
Why Not Other Options?
A (API) → APIs facilitate data exchange but do not solve authentication problems.
B (MFA) → Enhances security but still requires multiple logins.
D (VPN) → Secures connections but does not eliminate multiple logins.
