Why each option

Multifactor Authentication (MFA) is the solution that prevents unauthorized access to a system even if a user's password has been compromised.

AVPN

A VPN provides a secure tunnel for remote access but does not inherently stop unauthorized access if the credentials used to establish the VPN connection are compromised.

BMFACorrect

Multifactor authentication requires a user to provide two or more verification factors (e.g., something they know like a password, something they have like a phone, or something they are like a fingerprint) to gain access, making a compromised password alone insufficient for unauthorized access.

CAMP

Cisco AMP (Advanced Malware Protection) primarily detects and prevents malware, not unauthorized access due to compromised user passwords.

DSSL

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) provides encryption for data in transit but does not prevent unauthorized access if the user's password, which is used for authentication, is compromised.
