      25 Huan is hiring a third-party consultant who will have remote access to the organization's datacenter, but he would like to approve that access each time it occurs. Which one of the following solutions would meet Huan's needs in a practical manner?Huan should keep the consultant's password himself and provide it to the consultant when needed, and then immediately change the password after each use.Huan should provide the consultant with the password but configure his own device to approve logins via multifactor authentication.Huan should provide the consultant with the password but advise the consultant that she must advise him before using the account and then audit those attempts against access logs.Huan should create a new account for the consultant each time she needs to access the datacenter.
