This answer is D – ADFS. Secure Store Service is used for configuring credentials to SharePoint services like Excel Services and BCS. Secure Store is NOT used for general user access to a SharePoint site.
If you want to authenticate with a third party solution then you need to use ADFS.
I don’t agree with you here Matt. I would go for answer A. There is a reference to external sources and using SSO in MOSS which is the Secure Store Service in SP2010. AD FS would be used in case of business trust between farms (like Extranet).
A
Think A, because you use SSO for authentication
