Question 100
An enterprise needs to synchronize only a selected AD DS organizational unit of employee users to Microsoft Entra while excluding lab users. Select TWO complementary decisions: the correct technical implementation and the ongoing preventive control. Evidence-only tests and controls for a different scenario are not substitutes for those two responsibilities.
Explanation
Correct Answers
Configure supported Microsoft Entra Connect Sync OU-based synchronization filtering and review the initial sync impact. The solution acts at the intended identity, policy or application scope. A successful result is testable: inspect synchronized pilot employees from the included OU and confirm lab users remain out of scope. The competing configuration error is: the synchronization scope includes the laboratory OU that was intended to be filtered out.
Review OU filtering and deletion impact before sync configuration changes. This reduces future drift after the initial control is deployed: configure supported Microsoft Entra Connect Sync OU-based synchronization filtering and review the initial sync impact. Recheck the actual behavior with: inspect synchronized pilot employees from the included OU and confirm lab users remain out of scope.
Incorrect Answers
That action implements the separate cloud sync agent and scoping decision. It is appropriate when an organization wants cloud-managed synchronization of AD DS users across several forests with lightweight provisioning agents where supported. The present case instead requires the specific microsoft entra connect sync scope change: configure supported Microsoft Entra Connect Sync OU-based synchronization filtering and review the initial sync impact.
This control manages future microsoft entra connect health monitoring drift, but it does not reduce the continuing exposure in the described microsoft entra connect sync scope case. The correct safeguard is: review OU filtering and deletion impact before sync configuration changes.
That action implements the separate microsoft entra connect health monitoring decision. It is appropriate when hybrid identity operators need visibility into sync and federation service failures before staff notice login problems. The present case instead requires the specific microsoft entra connect sync scope change: configure supported Microsoft Entra Connect Sync OU-based synchronization filtering and review the initial sync impact.
