Overview
-

Fabrikam, Inc. is an engineering company that has offices throughout Europe. The company has a main office in London and three branch offices in Amsterdam, Berlin, and Rome.

Existing Environment: Active Directory Environment

The network contains two Active Directory forests named corp.fabrikam.com and rd.fabrikam.com. There are no trust relationships between the forests.

Corp.fabrikam.com is a production forest that contains identities used for internal user and computer authentication.

Rd.fabrikam.com is used by the research and development (R&D) department only. The R&D department is restricted to using on-premises resources only.

Existing Environment: Network Infrastructure

Each office contains at least one domain controller from the corp.fabrikam.com domain. The main office contains all the domain controllers for the rd.fabrikam.com forest.

All the offices have a high-speed connection to the internet.

An existing application named WebApp1 is hosted in the data center of the London office. WebApp1 is used by customers to place and track orders. WebApp1 has a web tier that uses Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and a database tier that runs Microsoft SQL Server 2016. The web tier and the database tier are deployed to virtual machines that run on Hyper-V.

The IT department currently uses a separate Hyper-V environment to test updates to WebApp1.

Fabrikam purchases all Microsoft licenses through a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement that includes Software Assurance.

Existing Environment: Problem Statements

The use of WebApp1 is unpredictable. At peak times, users often report delays. At other times, many resources for WebApp1 are underutilized.


Requirements: Planned Changes
-

Fabrikam plans to move most of its production workloads to Azure during the next few years, including virtual machines that rely on Active Directory for authentication.

As one of its first projects, the company plans to establish a hybrid identity model, facilitating an upcoming Microsoft 365 deployment.

All R&D operations will remain on-premises.

Fabrikam plans to migrate the production and test instances of WebApp1 to Azure.

Requirements: Technical Requirements

Fabrikam identifies the following technical requirements:

• Website content must be easily updated from a single point.
• User input must be minimized when provisioning new web app instances.
• Whenever possible, existing on-premises licenses must be used to reduce cost.
• Users must always authenticate by using their corp.fabrikam.com UPN identity.
• Any new deployments to Azure must be redundant in case an Azure region fails.
• Whenever possible, solutions must be deployed to Azure by using the Standard pricing tier of Azure App Service.
• An email distribution group named IT Support must be notified of any issues relating to the directory synchronization services.
• In the event that a link fails between Azure and the on-premises network, ensure that the virtual machines hosted in Azure can authenticate to Active Directory.
• Directory synchronization between Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) and corp.fabrikam.com must not be affected by a link failure between Azure and the on-premises network.

Requirements: Database Requirements

Fabrikam identifies the following database requirements:

• Database metrics for the production instance of WebApp1 must be available for analysis so that database administrators can optimize the performance settings.
• To avoid disrupting customer access, database downtime must be minimized when databases are migrated.
• Database backups must be retained for a minimum of seven years to meet compliance requirements.

Requirements: Security Requirements

Fabrikam identifies the following security requirements:

• Company information including policies, templates, and data must be inaccessible to anyone outside the company.
• Users on the on-premises network must be able to authenticate to corp.fabrikam.com if an internet link fails.
• Administrators must be able authenticate to the Azure portal by using their corp.fabrikam.com credentials.
• All administrative access to the Azure portal must be secured by using multi-factor authentication (MFA).
• The testing of WebApp1 updates must not be visible to anyone outside the company.


To meet the authentication requirements of Fabrikam, what should you include in the solution? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

The requirement that "the testing of WebApp1 updates must not be visible to anyone outside the company" is primarily about controlling network access rather than applying conditional access policies.

Minimum number of Azure AD tenants: 1 Explanation: A single Azure AD tenant can manage identities from multiple Active Directory forests using Azure AD Connect and conditional access policies to meet the specified requirements. Minimum number of conditional access policies to create: 2 Explanation: Policy 1: Require MFA for administrative access to the Azure portal. Policy 2: Ensure users authenticate using their corp.fabrikam.com credentials and enforce policies to restrict access to authorized users.

I don't think a conditional access policy is required for admin access to the Azure portal, this is enabled with Security Defaults. It can be done with a conditional access policy but if the question is minimum number of policies required then because this can be achieved through another method, minimum is 1 for testing webapp1 updates.

If Security Defaults are enabled you cannot create any Conditional Access policies. So you wouldn't be able to satisfy all requirements.

It may perhaps be 0 access policies because MFA can be enforced for all admins accessing the Portal using PIM and for my understanding regarding the Testing WebApp1, outside the company would means with no company account, therefore with no access without explicit guest access granting !!

Correct Answer To meet the authentication requirements for the given case study, we need to evaluate the minimum number of Azure AD tenants and Conditional Access policies needed. 1. Number of Azure AD Tenants: 1 - With their aim to set up a hybrid identity model, this will typically use a single Azure AD tenant (Entra ID or whatever it's called now) connected to an on-premise AD domain. 2. Number of Conditional Access Policies: 2 Policy for MFA on Azure Portal Access: - All administrative access must be secured by MFA, this will require a Conditional Access Policy to enforce. Policy for WebApp1 Testing Access: - The testing environment for WebApp1 should not be visible to those outside the company. So, a second policy is needed, which will restrict access to this testing instance based on criteria like belonging to certain user groups or logging in from specific internal IP addresses.
