Which of the following is designed to verify and authenticate individuals taking part in a data exchange within an enterprise?

The correct answer is C. PKI. PKI is the framework designed to verify and authenticate the identities of parties involved in enterprise data exchanges through the use of digital certificates and cryptographic key pairs.

Why each option

PKI is the framework designed to verify and authenticate the identities of parties involved in enterprise data exchanges through the use of digital certificates and cryptographic key pairs.

ASOA

SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) is a software design pattern for structuring enterprise applications as interoperable services and does not provide identity verification or authentication mechanisms.

BSingle-Sign On

Single Sign-On simplifies user authentication by allowing one login session to access multiple systems, but it does not itself verify or cryptographically authenticate individuals participating in a data exchange.

CPKICorrect

Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) issues and manages digital certificates that bind a public key to a verified identity, enabling both authentication and non-repudiation in data exchanges. Certificate Authorities (CAs) validate identities before issuing certificates, and relying parties can verify those certificates cryptographically. This makes PKI the definitive enterprise solution for verifying and authenticating individuals participating in secure data exchanges.

DBiometrics

Biometrics authenticates individuals based on physical characteristics for access control purposes but does not provide the certificate-based cryptographic framework needed to verify and authenticate parties within an enterprise data exchange.
