Question

Drag and Drop Question You have a hybrid environment that includes Microsoft Azure AD. On-premises applications use Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) for authentication. You need to determine which authentication methods to use. Match each feature to its authentication source. To answer, drag the appropriate authentication sources from the column on the left to the features on the right. Each authentication source may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

AD DS onlyAzure AD onlyAD DS and Azure AD

Correct arrangement

  • AD DS and Azure AD
  • AD DS only
  • Azure AD only

Explanation

In a hybrid Azure AD environment, authentication sources depend on where the resource resides and how identity federation is configured. On-premises applications using AD DS for authentication rely solely on AD DS (on-premises Active Directory), while cloud-only features like Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication or Conditional Access are handled exclusively by Azure AD. Features like Password Hash Synchronization or Pass-through Authentication span both AD DS and Azure AD, as credentials originate in AD DS but authentication decisions or sync processes involve Azure AD.
