Question

Identification badges and smart keys are examples of ________ objects that users carry to identify themselves and that allow them access to a computer system or computer facility.

Answer 1

Possessed objects

Step-by-step explanation:

Objects that are carried around by users to identify themselves with and to allow them access into computer systems are called possessed objects. Examples of such objects are;

i. smart cards

ii. driver's license

iii. id cards

iv. smart keys

Possessed objects are not the only way to allow authentication. Other methods are through memorized information (such as passwords, PINs) and through biometric devices (such as face recognition and voice recognition devices).
