- E. Role2 only
Correct Answer: C 🗳️

You have an on-premises server named Server! that runs Windows Server.
You have a Microsoft Entra tenant that contains an app registration named App1. App1 has Microsoft Graph application permissions.
You need to configure the environment to support App1. The solution must meet the following requirements:
* App1 must be accessible only from the corporate network.
* The credentials for App1 must NOT be stored as plain text.
* Non-interactive scheduled tasks on Server 1 must be able to authenticate to App1.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
According to the Microsoft SC-300: Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator Study Guide and Microsoft Learn documentation ("Implement app registration and authentication with Microsoft Entra ID") , when configuring app registrations and securing non-interactive service applications (like scheduled tasks), two key elements must be addressed - secure authentication and conditional access enforcement.
To ensure App1 is accessible only from the corporate network, you must configure a Conditional Access policy in Microsoft Entra ID. Conditional Access policies allow you to restrict access to applications based on conditions such as:
* User or workload identity
* Location (e.g., trusted IP ranges or corporate networks)
* Device compliance and sign-in risk
As Microsoft documentation states:
"Conditional Access policies can restrict access to specific applications based on location, risk, or device status. Use named locations to allow access only from your trusted network." Therefore, a Conditional Access policy is required to meet the first requirement.
For non-interactive scheduled tasks running on an on-premises server (Server1) that need to authenticate to App1 using application permissions, credentials must be securely stored. Storing plain-text secrets (like passwords or client secrets) violates security best practices.
Microsoft recommends using certificates for application authentication because certificates are securely stored and provide higher security than secrets.
From the SC-300 material and Microsoft Learn:
"When registering applications that use non-interactive authentication, use a certificate-based credential instead of a client secret. Certificates are more secure and meet compliance requirements for secure app authentication." This approach also ensures that Server1's scheduled tasks can authenticate silently using the private key of the certificate.
You have a Microsoft 365 tenant.
All users must use the Microsoft Authenticator app for multi-factor authentication (MFA) when accessing Microsoft 365 services.
Some users report that they received an MFA prompt on their Microsoft Authenticator app without initiating a sign-in request.
You need to block the users automatically when they report an MFA request that they did not Initiate.
Solution: From the Azure portal, you configure the Fraud alert settings for multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Does this meet the goal?
- A. Yes
- B. No

You have an Azure AD tenant named contoso.com that has Email one-time passcode for guests set to Yes.
You invite the guest users shown in the following table.
Which users will receive a one-time passcode, and how long will the passcode be valid? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
According to the Microsoft SC-300 Study Guide, Exam Ref SC-300, and Microsoft Entra (Azure AD B2B collaboration) documentation, when a guest is invited to an Azure AD tenant and the setting "Email one-time passcode for guests" is enabled, Azure AD determines the authentication method based on the guest's account type.
Here's how the logic applies:
* Guest1 (adatum.com - Azure AD account)
* Because adatum.com is an Azure AD-managed domain, Guest1 will authenticate using their own organization's Azure AD credentials.
* The guest sign-in will federate to their home tenant, and therefore no one-time passcode (OTP) is sent.
* Guest2 (outlook.com - Microsoft account)
* A user with an @outlook.com email has a Microsoft account (MSA).
* Microsoft accounts can authenticate directly via Microsoft's identity system.
* Hence, no one-time passcode is sent - the user signs in using their Microsoft account credentials.
* Guest3 (gmail.com - Personal Google account)
* A @gmail.com address is not a Microsoft account and not linked to any Azure AD tenant by default.
* In this case, because the tenant's setting "Email one-time passcode for guests" is enabled, Azure AD automatically sends a one-time passcode (OTP) to the guest's email address for authentication.
* The Microsoft documentation specifies that the OTP is valid for 30 minutes and is single-use.
After expiration, a new code is issued upon the next authentication attempt.
This is confirmed in Microsoft's official Entra ID documentation:
"When the Email one-time passcode for guests setting is enabled, guests who do not have an Azure AD or Microsoft account will authenticate using a one-time passcode that is valid for 30 minutes."
You have a Microsoft 36S subscription. The subscription contains users that use Microsoft Outlook 2016 and Outlook 2013 clients. You need to implement tenant restrictions. The solution must minimize administrative effort. What should you do first?
- A. Upgrade all the Outlook clients to Outlook 2019.
- B. Configure the Outlook 2013 clients to use modem authentication.
- C. From the Exchange admin center, configure Organization Sharing.
- D. Upgrade the Outlook 2013 clients to Outlook 2016.
