A security manager installed a standalone fingerprint reader at the data center. All employees that
need to access the data center have been enrolled to the reader and local reader database is
always kept updates. When an employee who has been enrolled uses the fingerprint reader the
door to the data center opens. Which of the following does this demonstrate? (Select THREE)
A.
Two-factor authentication
B.
Single sign-on
C.
Something you have
D.
Identification
E.

Yup your right Leanne, putting your finger on the scanner would be (Identification). Checking the user Database for the ACL would be Authentication and Authorization will open the door.

I have no question about choice D and E. I don’t understand why it is a two-factor authentication? Fingerprint is something you are (it is a single-factor authentication. I agree the correct answer is D, E, F.

The fact you put your finger in the scanner at the door, means you are there, therefore “somewhere you are”, which adds up to “something you are”, your finger. Hence the dual factor authentication.
I see 4 answers here, A, D, E, F. If I have to choose 3, I would go for:
A –> Because you are at the door, and because you use your finger (two factors)
E –> Because you are authenticated
F –> Because the door opens, and that means you are authorized.
I hate this type of questions, it is very vague.

Agreed. No two factor authentication–just one.
Authorization is done when the door opens. DEF

The explanation is that your fingerprint is “something you Have” and “something you Are” but they don’t always follow this logic. it’s random as to how they interpret this type of authentication and it burns me up
