Explanation
Azure AD Connect (now called Microsoft Entra Connect) is the Microsoft tool specifically built to synchronize on-premises Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) identities - users, groups, and passwords - to a Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) tenant. This enables a hybrid identity model where users can sign in to cloud services with the same credentials as their on-premises accounts. AD FS (A) provides federated single sign-on but does not sync/copy identity objects to Entra ID. Microsoft Sentinel (B) is a SIEM/SOAR solution unrelated to identity sync. Microsoft Entra PIM (D) manages privileged access elevation, not identity synchronization.
