Explanation

Microsoft manages the physical AD servers for Azure AD. This eliminates the need for your company to manage physical servers. Microsoft is not responsible for user management. Although Microsoft manages the physical servers, you are still responsible for user management. Network security is not managed by a Microsoft partner. You are still responsible for configuring network security groups (NSGs) and virtual networks (VNets). Role-based security is not managed by a Microsoft partner. You are still responsible for managing role-based security. Role-based security helps to secure Azure resources by limiting who has access to those resources.
