GitHub is listed as one of the identity providers. Check the Microsoft document: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/overview-authentication-authorization#identity-providers
In summary, while a central identity provider plays a crucial role in managing authentication and authorization, it does not necessarily manage all aspects of these services in every scenario, and organizations often use a combination of tools and practices to achieve comprehensive identity and access management.
1st one is False. GitHub is primarily a repository hosting service, it offers some authentication features, it is not a dedicated identity provider like Azure AD
YYY
Federation - When you set up SSO to work between multiple identity providers, it's called federation.
With modern authentication, all services, including all authentication services, are supplied by a central identity provider.

And another one wrong in this....
An identity provider creates, maintains, and manages identity information while offering authentication, authorization, and auditing services.

GitHub surely isn’t an identity provider.
A modern identity provider should manage authentication and authorization but auditing might be manages by a separate system.
Correct YYN. Git Hub can be used as Identity Provider
