What is the functionality of User-based access control?

Providing single sign-on mechanisms
Assigning the lowest possible access
Requiring an administrator to change access levels
Requiring an administrator to add, edit, or remove users

The correct answer is: Requiring an administrator to add, edit, or remove users

User-based access control involves assigning specific access levels to individual users based on their roles, responsibilities, and permissions. By requiring an administrator to add, edit, or remove users, user-based access control ensures that the right individuals have the appropriate level of access to data and resources within an organization. This approach helps in maintaining data privacy and security by restricting access only to authorized users. Options A, B, and C do not fully encompass the functionality of user-based access control. Single sign-on mechanisms refer to authentication processes, assigning the lowest possible access level may not always be suitable depending on user roles, and requiring an administrator to change access levels might not be specific to individual users' needs and permissions.
