Question

You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that contains an Azure AD tenant named contoso.com. The tenant includes a user named User1. You enable Azure AD Identity Protection.

To which role should you add User1?

Explanation

Security Reader (B) is the least-privileged built-in Azure AD role that grants read-only access to Azure AD Identity Protection, including the list of users flagged for risk, risky sign-ins, and risk detection details. This satisfies the principle of least privilege because it provides only viewing rights without any ability to configure or manage Identity Protection policies. Security Administrator would also work but has broader permissions (manage, not just read), making it more privilege than necessary. Reports Reader provides access to usage and audit reports in Microsoft 365, but not specifically to Identity Protection risk data. Compliance Administrator and User Administrator do not grant access to Identity Protection risk reports.
