Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • SNMP monitoring

    Why it's wrong here

    SNMP is for device management, not user authentication.

  • Local LDAP database

    Why it's wrong here

    LDAP is typically used for on-prem authentication, not SaaS.

  • Duo MFA integration

    Why this is correct

    Duo adds a second layer of verification for SaaS access.

  • WPA2-Enterprise

    Why it's wrong here

    WPA2 is for Wi-Fi access control, not cloud app authentication.

    Why this is correct

    SAML is the standard for cloud-based authentication.
