Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
Your organization wants to secure access to blobs in an Azure Storage account by leveraging users' existing credentials without distributing shared keys or tokens. They want to use role-based access control to manage permissions. What is the BEST way to configure the storage account to meet these requirements?
Enable anonymous access to the storage account and use network security groups to restrict access
Enable identity-based authentication on the storage account and assign appropriate roles to users
Generate shared access tokens for each user and distribute them securely
Distribute the storage account access keys to users
Enabling identity-based authentication on the storage account and assigning appropriate roles to users allows users to access the storage account using their existing credentials, managed via Azure Entra ID. This approach implements role-based access control (RBAC) for managing permissions and eliminates the need to distribute shared keys or Shared Access Signatures (SAS). Generating shared access tokens or distributing access keys still involves handling shared secrets, which the organization wants to avoid. Enabling anonymous access is insecure and does not restrict access to specific users.
