Following a security breach that revealed employee username and password information, an organization would like...

In response to a security breach involving compromised credentials, one-time tokens provide an effective method to enhance authentication security. These tokens are part of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and generate unique codes for each login attempt, ensuring that even if credentials are stolen, unauthorized access is prevented.

Why One-time Tokens?

One-time tokens are dynamic and expire after a single use, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access even if usernames and passwords are compromised.

Often delivered through apps like Google Authenticator, hardware tokens, or SMS.

Incorrect Options:

A. Biometric authentication: While secure, it may not address all scenarios and requires additional hardware.

B. Peer-reviewed log-ins: Not a valid security measure.

C. Log-in scripts: Used for automating login configurations but do not enhance security directly.
