ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your organization is launching a multi-tenant SaaS platform on a public cloud. Each customer insists that its employees sign in with the credentials already stored in the customer's corporate directory. The SaaS provider should not store or synchronize end-user passwords but must still control role-based authorization inside the application. Which identity management approach best satisfies these requirements while minimizing administrative overhead for both the SaaS provider and its customers?

  • Establish LDAP directory replication from every customer environment into the SaaS vendor's central directory service.

  • Implement SAML 2.0 federation so the SaaS acts as a Service Provider that trusts each customer's external IdP for authentication.

  • Distribute unique API keys to every customer user and validate the keys within application code.

  • Configure the SaaS to operate as the customers' Identity Provider and issue new credentials for each tenant.
