Microsoft Azure Administrator (legacy) — Question 68

You have a Microsoft 365 subscription and a hybrid deployment of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). User identities and password hashes are synced.
You have a user account named User1.
From Active Directory, you select the User must change password at next logon account option for User1.
What will occur if User1 attempts to sigh in to myapps.microsoft.com?

Answer options

• A. User1 will be prompted for a password change.
• B. User1 will sign in by using the old password.
• C. User1 will be prevented from signing in.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because when the 'User must change password at next logon' option is set, User1 will be required to change their password before they can log in. Options A and B are incorrect as they do not account for the enforced password change preventing access until the password is updated.
