Exam FC0-U61 topic 1 question 24 discussion

dis questun is baad cuz non repoodiashun is part of authenticashun :3

I understand why some choose B however, due to the "legal" part of the question, I am more inclined to choose A. Non-Repudiation.

This is an example of non-repudiation. Non-repudiation ensures that an individual cannot deny the authenticity of their signature on a document or a sent message. In this case, the retina scan provides proof of the applicant's identity, making it impossible for them to dispute that they applied for the position.

A is part of authentication ye? I think so

I'd say it's Authentication for sure

Answer is Authentication

Authentication is the "best" answer. It doesn't matter about whether or not A is a type of B.

The concept described, where new applicants are required to provide a scan of their retinas for future legal identification, is an example of "Authentication." Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of an individual, in this case, through the use of biometric data like retinal scans. It ensures that the person applying for the position can be authenticated and is who they claim to be. Non-repudiation, on the other hand, deals with the inability to deny one's actions or involvement in a transaction, which is not the primary concern in this context.

I put the question in chatgpt: “The concept described, where new applicants are required to provide a scan of their retinas for future legal identification, is an example of "biometric authentication" or "biometric identification." Biometric authentication uses unique physical or behavioral traits, such as fingerprints, iris scans, or in this case, retinal scans, to verify and identify individuals. It is a form of identity verification that is difficult to forge and is often used for security and legal purposes.”

Non-repudiation ensures that an entity cannot deny the authenticity of their actions. In this case, by providing a retina scan, new applicants are creating a unique and undeniable proof of their identity and application. This means that in the future, they cannot deny having applied for the position, as their retina scan would serve as proof.

The concept described, which involves collecting retina scans for identity verification, falls primarily under the category of "Authentication." It verifies the identity of the applicants by using their unique biometric data (retina scans) to ensure that they are who they claim to be. "Non-repudiation" is a different concept related to the assurance that a party cannot deny the authenticity or integrity of a message or action they have performed. It is often associated with digital signatures and cryptographic techniques to prevent someone from denying that they sent a message or made a transaction. While non-repudiation can be a component of the overall process, the primary focus in the scenario is on authentication through biometric data.

Authenticate a user to submit a CV and against what? Does the company have the means to authenticate the user, a database or what? IMHO this is non-repudiation

The answer is Non-repudiation. Authentication is the process of claiming an identity on a network and entering a password to substantiate that claim. Authentication happens at that moment, not later.

The goal of nonrepudiation is to make it so that people can’t deny that an event took place. In other words, it provides proof that someone or something performed a specific action.

The answer to this question is definitely " "authentication"

The answer would not be Non-Repudiation. When we talk about this concept we are reffering to the exchange of keys or the digital signatures. This concept of non-repudiation is to assure the sending and receiving party are actually who they say they are and neither party can say they did not send/receive the transmission. The question has nothing to do with exchange of keys but it does with Authentication with biometrics.

In my opinion the correct answer based on the question's phrasing is A.
