Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
In the Cognos Analytics user interface, authentication providers are represented by namespaces.
Cognos Analytics supports the following types of authentication providers:
✑ Active Directory
✑ Custom Java Provider
✑ IBM Cognos Series 7
✑ LDAP
✑ OpenID Connect
✑ SAP
✑ SiteMinder
Authentication providers are configured in IBM Cognos Configuration, under the Security > Authentication category. After the provider namespace is added there, and the IBM Cognos service is restarted, the namespace name is displayed in Manage > Accounts, and users can log on to Cognos Analytics using that namespace.

I believe A(Log on to each of the namespaces before starting) is the correct one because otherwise you are not able to see users from all namespaces (namespaces that you are not logged in are greyed out).
