[All SY0-701 Questions]

A group of developers has a shared backup account to access the source code repository. Which of the following is the best way to secure the backup account if there is an SSO failure?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions enhance security by enforcing strong authentication, rotation of credentials, and access control for shared accounts. This is especially critical in scenarios like SSO failures. Reference: CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 Study Guide, Domain 5: Security Program Management, Section: 'Privileged Access and Identity Management'.

Ah, the age-old question of how to secure a backup account. I say we just lock it in a safe and throw away the key. Problem solved!

RAS? Really? That's so 90s. Let's get with the times and use something more modern, like PAM or SAML.

EAP is a pretty standard authentication protocol, but I don't think it's the best fit here. This sounds like a job for some more robust security measures.

I'm not sure about PAM, but SAML sounds like a good option. It's designed for federated identity management, which could help in this situation.

PAM definitely seems like the best way to secure the backup account. It provides an additional layer of security beyond just the SSO.
