Question
You have a customer that has a Microsoft 365 subscription and uses the Free edition of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
The customer plans to obtain an Azure subscription and provision several Azure resources.
You need to evaluate the customer's security environment.
What will necessitate an upgrade from the Azure AD Free edition to the Premium edition?
- A. Azure AD Privileged Identity Management (PIM) Correct
- B. role-based authorization
- C. resource-based authorization
- D. Azure AD Multi-Factor Authentication
Explanation
Privileged Identity Management (PIM) requires Microsoft Entra ID P2 (formerly Azure AD Premium P2). Role-based and resource-based authorization are available in the Free edition, and multi-factor authentication can be enabled for free through security defaults, so only PIM forces an upgrade to a Premium edition.
