Explanation

Password Writeback is an Azure AD Connect feature that synchronizes passwords reset via Azure AD SSPR back to the on-premises AD DS. Without it, a password reset in Azure AD would not propagate to the on-premises directory, so users could not authenticate to on-premises resources with the new password. Option A (Password Protection proxy) enforces Azure AD password policies on-premises but does not write back passwords. Options C and D address permissions on the Azure AD Connect service account but do not enable the writeback mechanism itself.
