Aetherius Aerospace has an on-premises Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forest integrated with a primary Microsoft Entra ID tenant. The company recently partnered with Quantum Labs, which operates its own separate Microsoft Entra ID tenant. You are designing a hybrid and multi-tenant identity solution to meet the following requirements:
- Aetherius Aerospace users must be able to authenticate to cloud services using their on-premises passwords, even if the on-premises datacenters or network links become completely unavailable.
- Aetherius Aerospace users must be able to reset their passwords using a self-service portal in the cloud, and the new passwords must immediately synchronize back to the on-premises AD DS.
- Quantum Labs users must be able to access shared applications in the Aetherius Aerospace tenant using their existing home credentials without creating duplicate accounts.
- To prevent tenant lockout during an identity provider outage, designated emergency access administrator accounts must be able to log in without being blocked by multi-factor authentication (MFA) requirements.
Which identity integration and access control design should you recommend?
- Configure Microsoft Entra Connect with Password Hash Synchronization (PHS) and Password Writeback for Aetherius Aerospace users. Configure Microsoft Entra B2B collaboration to invite Quantum Labs users as guests. Apply a Conditional Access policy requiring multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrative and external access, with an explicit exclusion for emergency access accounts.Cevap
- BConfigure Microsoft Entra Connect with Pass-through Authentication (PTA) and Password Writeback for Aetherius Aerospace users. Configure Microsoft Entra B2B collaboration to invite Quantum Labs users as guests. Apply a Conditional Access policy requiring multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all administrative and external access, without excluding emergency access accounts.
- CDeploy Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) for Aetherius Aerospace user authentication. Use Microsoft Entra B2B collaboration to invite Quantum Labs users as guests. Configure a Conditional Access policy requiring multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrative access, and assign the tenant administrator roles directly to individual user accounts.
- DConfigure Microsoft Entra Connect with Password Hash Synchronization (PHS) but disable Password Writeback. Configure Microsoft Entra B2B collaboration to invite Quantum Labs users as guests. Configure Privileged Identity Management (PIM) to assign permanently active administrator roles to emergency access accounts.
