SY0-501 Question #497: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Company A has acquired Company

Options

• AAttestation
• BFederation
• CSingle sign-on
• DKerberos

Explanation

This question addresses the challenge of integrating identity systems between two distinct companies after an acquisition, where federation is the appropriate solution.

Common mistakes.

• A. Attestation is a process of verifying the integrity and authenticity of a system or component, often related to hardware security, and is not a mechanism for cross-organizational identity integration.
• C. Single sign-on (SSO) allows a user to authenticate once to access multiple applications, typically within the same security domain, but it is a user experience feature that relies on an underlying identity solution like federation to work across organizations.
• D. Kerberos is a network authentication protocol primarily used for secure authentication within a single domain or forest, not for establishing identity trust between two distinct and separate organizations.
