How can a user be authenticated to access an intranet?
A
With a username and password
B
No need to authenticate
C
Physical signing in book
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Authentication succeeds only if the user provides a name and password that matches the name and password stored in the user’s Person document (or in an LDAP directory-some users are authenticated against an LDAP directory rather than a Person record) and if the database ACL gives access to that user.

Detailed explanation-2: -Network authentication is a security process required when a computer on a network tries to connect to the server in order to use its resources. If the user’s identity has been stored by the server, entering a valid user name and password completes the connection.

Detailed explanation-3: -An intranet password manager stores and manages credentials for all the employees in the organization and takes appropriate measures to minimize the risks of internal vulnerabilities.
