Explanation

With web form-based SSO authentication, credentials (username and password) are stored or managed by the SSO system. When a session token expires, the system can automatically re-authenticate the user in the background by resubmitting the stored credentials through the web form - requiring no user interaction. Smart card authentication (B) requires the user to physically present and re-authenticate with their card/PIN after a timeout. External database (C) and local authentication (D) are typically interactive methods that prompt the user again upon session expiration.
