Your network contains an Active Directory forest.
You deploy Microsoft 365.
You plan to implement directory synchronization.
You need to recommend a security solution for the synchronized identities. The solution must meet the following requirements:
• Users must be able to authenticate successfully to Microsoft 365 services if Active Directory becomes unavailable.
• User passwords must be 10 characters or more.
Solution: Implement pass-through authentication and configure password protection in the Azure AD tenant.
Does this meet the goal?
Answer options
- A. Yes
- B. No
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The proposed solution of implementing pass-through authentication does not meet the requirement for users to authenticate if Active Directory is unavailable, as this method relies on the Active Directory being accessible. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as users would not be able to log in without Active Directory, which contradicts the requirement.
