Why each option

To prevent unauthorized access to Salesforce, an administrator should enable multi-factor authentication (MFA), which adds an extra layer of security beyond just a password.

ADisable TLS requirements for sessions

Disabling TLS (Transport Layer Security) requirements would reduce security by allowing unencrypted communication, making data vulnerable to interception and thereby increasing the risk of unauthorized access.

BEnable multi-factor authenticationCorrect

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) significantly enhances security by requiring users to provide two or more verification factors to gain access, making it much harder for unauthorized individuals to log in even if they obtain a password.

CEnable caching and autocomplete on login page

Enabling caching and autocomplete on the login page makes it easier for users to log in, but it can also expose credentials on shared computers, thereby reducing security and increasing the risk of unauthorized access.

DCustomize organization-wide defaults

Customizing organization-wide defaults controls the default visibility of records *after* a user has logged in, but it does not prevent unauthorized users from gaining initial access to the Salesforce org itself.
