QuestionQ64

VerifiedIdentity and Access Management (IAM)

A security architect is deploying an authentication system for a distributed server network. Users will access this network from workstations that cannot inherently trust the user's identity. Which solution should the security architect use so that users can trust each other?

Explanation

Mutual authentication requires each communicating party to authenticate the other, establishing reciprocal trust rather than validating only one side of the connection.
