Your network contains an Active Directory forest.
You deploy Microsoft 365.
You plan to implement directory synchronization.
You need to recommend a security solution for the synchronized identities. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Users must be able to authenticate successfully to Microsoft 365 services if Active Directory becomes unavailable.
✑ User passwords must be 10 characters or more.
Solution: Implement pass-through authentication and modify the password settings from the Default Domain Policy in Active Directory.
Does this meet the goal?

A. Yes

B. No












 

Suggested Answer: B

This solution does not meet the following requirement:
✑ Users must be able to authenticate successfully to Microsoft 365 services if Active Directory becomes unavailable.
This is because with pass-through authentication, the authentication is performed by the on-premise Active Directory.
This solution does meet the following requirement:
✑ User passwords must be 10 characters or more.
Configuring the Default Domain Policy in the on-premise Active Directory meets the requirement.
