Overview -
Fabrikam, Inc. is an electronics company that produces consumer products. Fabrikam has 10,000 employees worldwide.
Fabrikam has a main office in London and branch offices in major cities in Europe, Asia, and the United States.

Existing Environment -

Active Directory Environment -
The network contains an Active Directory forest named fabrikam.com. The forest contains all the identities used for user and computer authentication. Each department is represented by a top-level organizational unit (OU) that contains several child OUs for user accounts and computer accounts.
All users authenticate to on-premises applications by signing in to their device by using a UPN format of [email protected].
Fabrikam does NOT plan to implement identity federation.

Network Infrastructure -
Each office has a high-speed connection to the Internet.
Each office contains two domain controllers. All domain controllers are configured as DNS servers.
The public zone for fabrikam.com is managed by an external DNS server.
All users connect to an on-premises Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 organization. The users access their email by using Outlook Anywhere, Outlook on the web, or the Microsoft Outlook app for iOS. All the Exchange servers have the latest cumulative updates installed.
All shared company documents are stored on a Microsoft SharePoint Server farm.

Requirements -

Planned Changes -
Fabrikam plans to implement a Microsoft 365 Enterprise subscription and move all email and shared documents to the subscription.
Fabrikam plans to implement two pilot projects:
Project1: During Project1, the mailboxes of 100 users in the sales department will be moved to Microsoft 365.
Project2: After the successful completion of Project1, Microsoft Teams will be enabled in Microsoft 365 for the sales department users.
Fabrikam plans to create a group named UserLicenses that will manage the allocation of all Microsoft 365 bulk licenses.

Technical Requirements -
Fabrikam identifies the following technical requirements:
All users must be able to exchange email messages successfully during Project1 by using their current email address.
Users must be able to authenticate to cloud services if Active Directory becomes unavailable.
A user named User1 must be able to view all DLP reports from the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.
Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise applications must be installed from a network share only.
Disruptions to email access must be minimized.

Application Requirements -
Fabrikam identifies the following application requirements:
An on-premises web application named App1 must allow users to complete their expense reports online. App1 must be available to users from the My Apps portal.
The installation of feature updates for Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise must be minimized.

Security Requirements -
Fabrikam identifies the following security requirements:
After the planned migration to Microsoft 365, all users must continue to authenticate to their mailbox and to SharePoint sites by using their UPN.
The membership of the UserLicenses group must be validated monthly. Unused user accounts must be removed from the group automatically.
After the planned migration to Microsoft 365, all users must be signed in to on-premises and cloud-based applications automatically.
The principle of least privilege must be used.
You need to ensure that all the sales department users can authenticate successfully during Project1 and Project2.
Which authentication strategy should you implement for the pilot projects?

  • A. pass-through authentication
  • B. pass-through authentication and seamless SSO
  • C. password hash synchronization and seamless SSO
  • D. password hash synchronization

Selected Answer: C
"Users must be able to authenticate to cloud services if Active Directory becomes unavailable." That would be hash sync. Pass-though with failback is also possible but more work to implement and maintain. "After the planned migration to Microsoft 365, all users must be signed in to on-premises and cloud-based applications automatically." that's the SSO.

obsolete question. Seamless SSO is only for Windows 8.1 and older. For Windows 10+ is not needed anymore. So the right answer (if D or C) depends on question date. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/hybrid/connect/how-to-connect-sso#sso-via-primary-refresh-token-vs-seamless-sso

Selected Answer: D
Correct answer is D, you only need Password Hash Synchronization, Seamless SSO and SSO are two different things, just by activating PHS you can use SSO since your password hash is synchronized to the cloud, if on-prem goes down you can still access the cloud because the password hash is also stored in the cloud and AD is not needed to authenticate.

Ignore my answer above, just read all the details and it does says that you have to be signed in automatically, so that is Seamless SSO, with SSO you have to manually sign-in, so ANSWER is C: password hash synchronization and seamless SSO

Resposta |A identidade somente na nuvem autenticação federada autenticação de passagem (PTA) Esta resposta está correta. sincronização de hash de senha (PHS) Essa resposta está incorreta. A autenticação de passagem (PTA) e a autenticação federada dão suporte ao uso de domínios locais do Active Directory para autenticação. A sincronização de hash de senha e a identidade somente na nuvem são usadas para garantir que o Microsoft Entra ID forneça autenticação. https://learn.microsoft.com/pt-br/microsoft-365/enterprise/deploy-identity-solution-identity-model?view=o365-worldwide

AD FS is a Microsoft service that provides single sign-on (SSO) and identity federation capabilities. AD FS allows users to authenticate using their on-premises Active Directory credentials and access resources in cloud or partner environments without the need for separate identities or credentials. https://learn.microsoft.com/pt-br/training/modules/explore-identity-synchronization/3-examine-authentication-options

Technical Requirements - Users must be able to authenticate to cloud services if Active Directory becomes unavailable. Seamless Single Sign-On (Seamless SSO): This method allows users to automatically sign in when they are on the corporate network. However, it still relies on the on-premises AD for authentication. If the on-premises AD is unavailable, users will not be able to authenticate

The authentication strategy you should implement for the pilot projects is password hash synchronization and seamless SSO. This approach will ensure that users can authenticate to cloud services even if Active Directory becomes unavailable, as required by the technical requirements. It also allows users to be signed in to on-premises and cloud-based applications automatically, as required by the security requirements. So, the correct answer is C. password hash synchronization and seamless SSO.

Should be A, as the question clearly states "during Project1 and Project2." During and not After the projects. After migriation SSO is needed, but During only Pass Hash is needed.
