What functionality does Open ID serve in terms of authentication?

  1. Encrypting data using different keys

  2. Assigning access based on user roles

  3. Providing single sign-on mechanisms

  4. Requiring an administrator to modify user access

The correct answer is: Providing single sign-on mechanisms

OpenID provides a single sign-on mechanism, allowing users to use a single set of credentials to access multiple websites or applications. This simplifies the authentication process for users and reduces the need to manage multiple usernames and passwords. In contrast, option A, encrypting data using different keys, is more related to encryption rather than authentication. Option B, assigning access based on user roles, refers to authorization rather than authentication. Option D, requiring an administrator to modify user access, relates to access control rather than authentication.
