SC-300 Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator Dumps 3 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: An administrator wants to ensure that Azure AD guests cannot enumerate other users in the directory. Which setting controls this behavior?
- Guest user access restrictions in External Identities settings (Correct answer)
- Conditional Access policy targeting guests
- Microsoft Entra ID governance entitlement management
- Azure AD audit log retention policy
Correct answer: Guest user access restrictions in External Identities settings
The 'Guest user access restrictions' in External Identities settings controls whether guests can enumerate directory objects like users and groups.
Question 2: Which Conditional Access session control can force a user to re-authenticate after a defined period, regardless of whether the session token is still valid?
- Persistent browser session
- Sign-in frequency (Correct answer)
- Use app enforced restrictions
- Continuous access evaluation
Correct answer: Sign-in frequency
The 'Sign-in frequency' session control sets a maximum interval before the user must reauthenticate.
Question 3: A company needs to provide time-limited, audited access to a sensitive Azure resource group for a contractor. Which PIM feature is best suited for this?
- Eligible Azure resource role assignment with expiration date (Correct answer)
- Permanent Azure AD directory role assignment
- Just-in-time VM access via Microsoft Defender for Cloud
- Access package in entitlement management with an expiration policy
Correct answer: Eligible Azure resource role assignment with expiration date
PIM supports time-bound eligible assignments for Azure resource roles, requiring activation and providing full audit trails.
Question 4: What is the primary purpose of the 'What If' tool in Azure AD Conditional Access?
- Simulate which Conditional Access policies apply to a specific user, app, and sign-in condition (Correct answer)
- Test Identity Protection risk policies before enabling them
- Preview the effect of a new named location before saving it
- Audit historical sign-ins against current Conditional Access policies
Correct answer: Simulate which Conditional Access policies apply to a specific user, app, and sign-in condition
The 'What If' tool lets administrators simulate a sign-in scenario and see which Conditional Access policies would apply and why.
Question 5: An application registered in Azure AD needs to read all users' profiles without a signed-in user. Which permission type is required?
- Delegated permission with User.Read scope
- Application permission with User.Read.All scope (Correct answer)
- Delegated permission with User.ReadAll scope
- Application permission with Directory.Read.All scoped to the app
Correct answer: Application permission with User.Read.All scope
Application permissions (app roles) allow a service or daemon to access the API without a signed-in user; User.Read.All grants access to all user profiles.
Question 6: After enabling Azure AD Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR), some users report they cannot reset their passwords. The administrator notices these users have not registered authentication methods. What should the administrator do?
- Force SSPR registration at next sign-in using the SSPR registration policy in Identity Protection (Correct answer)
- Manually set temporary passwords for all affected users
- Enable password writeback in Azure AD Connect
- Configure the Authentication methods policy to allow SMS
Correct answer: Force SSPR registration at next sign-in using the SSPR registration policy in Identity Protection
The SSPR registration policy in Identity Protection can enforce that users register their authentication methods on next sign-in.
Question 7: Which Azure AD feature allows administrators to review and certify whether users should retain access to groups, applications, or Azure AD roles on a recurring basis?
- Privileged Identity Management approval workflows
- Access reviews in Microsoft Entra ID Governance (Correct answer)
- Entitlement management access packages
- Conditional Access policy review
Correct answer: Access reviews in Microsoft Entra ID Governance
Access reviews periodically prompt reviewers to confirm or revoke access, automating recertification of group memberships, app assignments, and role assignments.
