Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate AZ-500 Practice Question

You have two Azure Functions running in separate Azure subscriptions. Both functions must read secrets from the same Azure Key Vault, and your solution must minimize secret-management overhead. You want a single identity that you can grant Key Vault access once and reuse from both functions without handling credential rotation. Which option should you choose?

  • Use a shared access signature (SAS) token stored in Azure App Configuration and reference it from both Function Apps.

  • Create a single user-assigned managed identity and assign it to both Function Apps, then grant that identity access to the Key Vault.

  • Register an Azure AD application, generate a client secret, and store the secret in each Function App's configuration.

  • Enable a system-assigned managed identity on each Function App and add both identities to the Key Vault access policy.
