Illustration for SC-900 question 100
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Yes No Yes
Explanation:
Hybrid identity supports syncing on-premises Active Directory identities to Azure AD (Microsoft Entra ID). Accounts created in Azure AD do not automatically sync back to on-premises Active Directory. In hybrid environments, authentication can be handled by Azure AD or a federated identity provider.

Question 101

What can you use to ensure that all the users in a specific group must use multi-factor authentication (MFA) to sign to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD)?

A. Azure Policy
B. a communication compliance policy
C. a Conditional Access policy
D. a user risk policy
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Conditional Access policies can target specific users or groups and require multi-factor authentication as a sign-in control. Azure Policy governs Azure resource compliance, communication compliance policies relate to Microsoft Purview, and user risk policies respond to identity risk rather than generally enforcing MFA for a group.

Question 102

HOTSPOT - For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-900 question 102
Show Answer
Correct Answer: No Yes Yes
Explanation:
Identity Protection detects leaked credentials and can trigger MFA through risk-based Conditional Access policies. It does not add users to groups based on risk level.

Question 103

What is a function of Conditional Access session controls?

A. enforcing device compliance
B. enforcing client app compliance
C. enable limited experiences, such as blocking download of sensitive information
D. prompting multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Conditional Access session controls are used after authentication to govern what users can do during an active session, such as restricting downloads or providing limited access within cloud apps. Device compliance, client app compliance, and MFA are Conditional Access policy conditions or grant controls rather than session controls.

Question 104

HOTSPOT - For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-900 question 104
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Yes Yes No
Explanation:
Authorization determines what level of access a user has to a resource. Authentication verifies a user's identity. Permissions such as reading and writing files are part of authorization, not authentication.

Question 105

HOTSPOT - Select the answer that correctly completes the sentence.

Illustration for SC-900 question 105
Show Answer
Correct Answer: authentication
Explanation:
Signing in involves verifying a user's credentials to prove identity, which is authentication. Authorization determines what an authenticated user can access.
