Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate AZ-500 Practice Question
Your company has a Windows Server 2016 file server on-premises. You will migrate a shared folder to Azure Files and mount it as drive F:. Requirements:
Users must authenticate with existing on-premises Active Directory credentials.
No storage account keys or SAS tokens can be stored on the server.
Which Azure Files authentication method should you configure?
Integrate the storage account with on-premises Active Directory Domain Services and use SMB Kerberos authentication.
Enable Azure Active Directory Domain Services authentication and join the Windows Server to the managed domain in Azure.
Map the share by using a shared access signature stored in Windows Credential Manager.
Connect by using the storage account key embedded in a logon PowerShell script.
Integrating the storage account with on-premises Active Directory Domain Services enables Kerberos authentication over SMB. Domain-joined computers can access Azure file shares using each user's normal AD credentials, so no shared keys or SAS tokens have to be saved on the server. Azure AD DS would require deploying a managed domain and re-joining the server, while SAS or storage account keys rely on secrets that must be stored locally, violating the stated requirement.
