Q9 , Page 664 of HFSJ says option B is correct but i feel that D is also correct . Pls correct me if i am wrong.

Quetion:

which authentication mechanism is recommended to be used if cookies or SSL session tracking is in place.

a. HTTP Basic Authentication
b. Form Based Authentication
c. HTTP Digest Authentication
d. HTTPS Authentication

Hi,
Option B is correct , b'coz FORM based authentication requires Session tracking ( cookies or SSL can be of help for session tracking)

Look out ,there is no HTTPS Authentication..Its a mechanism for transmitting data in some secure manner and not an authentication mechanism
