Full set: 117 questions
Answer options
A: SMS code sent to mobile phone
B: Single sign-on Correct answer
C: Google Friend Connect
D: Facebook Connect
Correct Answer:
B. Single sign-on
Explanation

Of the options provided, only Single Sign-On (SSO) is a valid method for signing into a managed ChromeOS device. Administrators can configure SAML-based SSO, allowing users to authenticate against a third-party identity provider (e.g., Microsoft Azure AD, Okta) to sign into their ChromeOS device. This streamlines the login process in an enterprise environment. The primary default method is a standard Google Account login.

Why Incorrect

A. An SMS code is a form of two-factor authentication (2FA) used to verify an identity, not a primary sign-in method itself.
C. Google Friend Connect was a deprecated social widget service and is not a sign-in protocol for any Google service, including ChromeOS.
D. Facebook Connect is a social login protocol used for signing into websites and applications, not for authenticating at the ChromeOS operating system level.
