An external consultant is evaluating the process currently in place to support the authentication controls. Which of the following recommendation would MOST likely reduce the risk of unauthorized access?
A Implement strict three-factor authentication.
B Implement least privilege policies
C Switch to one-time or all user authorizations.
D Strengthen identify-proofing procedures
