AZ-305 · Question 06 · Domain 1.2: Authentication and Authorization

You are designing an identity governance solution for a large enterprise using Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD).

The security team requires that any user attempting to access the Azure Portal to perform administrative tasks must:

  1. Be prompted for Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
  2. Provide a business justification.
  3. Have their access automatically revoked after 4 hours.

Which combination of services should you implement?

Answer options:

A.

Conditional Access and Azure AD Identity Protection

B.

Privileged Identity Management (PIM) and Conditional Access

C.

Azure AD Access Reviews and Conditional Access

D.

Azure AD B2B and Privileged Identity Management (PIM)

How to approach this question

Match the requirements to the specific capabilities of Entra ID features: time-bound/justification = PIM; MFA enforcement = Conditional Access.

Full Answer

B.Privileged Identity Management (PIM) and Conditional Access✓ Correct
Privileged Identity Management (PIM) provides Just-In-Time (JIT) privileged access to Azure AD and Azure resources. It supports requiring a justification and setting a maximum activation duration (e.g., 4 hours). Conditional Access is used to enforce Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) when the user attempts to access the Azure Portal.

Common mistakes

Confusing Identity Protection with PIM. Identity Protection is for risk-based policies (e.g., leaked credentials), not JIT access.
