Hmm, this one's tricky. I was debating between C. Technical Services and D. Technical Safeguards, but I'm going to go with D. Can't go wrong with the technical stuff, right? *winks*

I was initially leaning towards B. Physical Safeguards, but then I remembered that authentication is more of a technical security measure. D. Technical Safeguards seems like the right choice here.

Well, I remember reading that it involves verifying the identity of a person or entity, so I still think it's under Technical Safeguards.

I think the answer is D. Technical Safeguards. HIPAA specifically requires authentication mechanisms to verify that the person or entity accessing ePHI is who they claim to be.
