🛡️ Free practice test question from: AAA framework (Security+)

Key characteristics of transitive trust include:

• It allows for indirect authentication across multiple domains

• The trust relationship "flows through" intermediate domains

• It simplifies authentication and access management in complex network environments

• Common in Active Directory

The ability to establish transitive trust is particularly useful in large enterprise networks with multiple domains, as it reduces the need to manually establish trust relationships between every single domain.

Transitive trust is related to AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting), which is a framework for controlling access to network resources and tracking user activities. https://www.strongdm.com/blog/aaa-security
