Question 129

Mark is an HIM employee who utilizes six different information systems as part of his job. Each of these has a different password. In order to keep up with the password for each system, Mark has written them all on paper and taped it to the back of his wife's picture on his desk. What technology could be used to eliminate this problem for Mark and other employees in the same situation?

    Correct Answer: C

    Mark is managing multiple passwords for different systems, which is cumbersome and insecure. The technology that can solve this problem is SSO (Single Sign-On). SSO allows users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple systems without having to manage different passwords for each system. This would eliminate the need for Mark to write down and store passwords insecurely.
