Passwordless solutions typically involve certificate-based authentication combined with a PIN. (Smart Card). Reducing the chances of accounts being compromised. MFA is important to remember in this instance "Something you have and something you are" Source: Verifying each answer against Chat GPT, my experience, other test banks, a written book, and weighing in the discussion from all users to create a 100% accurate guide for myself before I take the exam. (It isn't easy because of the time needed, but it is doing my diligence)

Selected Answer: B
The MOST significant benefit of implementing a passwordless authentication solution is that the likelihood of account compromise is reduced. Passwordless authentication, such as the use of biometric or token-based authentication, eliminates the need for passwords, which are a common target for cyberattacks, such as brute force or credential stuffing attacks. By removing the password, the risk of account compromise due to weak passwords or password reuse is eliminated. This improves security by ensuring that only authorized users are granted access to the system.
