Which of the following can serve as a second multifactor-authentication component when a user has an RSA token?

Explanation

An RSA token is a possession-based authenticator. A retina scan verifies an inherence characteristic—something the user is—so it supplies an independent MFA factor. Access cards, USB thumb drives, and RFID devices are also possession-based factors. CISA describes MFA factors as something known, possessed, or inherent, and lists physical traits such as iris characteristics as inherence factors.
