What is another method to enable Single Sign-On for users connected to the corporate network?

  1. By configuring conditional access policies in Azure

  2. By using pass-through authentication with Azure AD Connect

  3. By implementing Azure AD Domain Services in an Azure VM

  4. By using Azure AD B2B to invite external users

The correct answer is: By using pass-through authentication with Azure AD Connect

Using pass-through authentication with Azure AD Connect is an effective method to enable Single Sign-On (SSO) for users connected to a corporate network. Pass-through authentication allows users to sign in to cloud applications, like Microsoft 365, with the same credentials they use for their on-premises directory. When a user attempts to sign in, the authentication request is securely passed to an on-premises server that validates the credentials against the local Active Directory. This means that the user does not have to remember another set of credentials, which simplifies the user experience and maintains a seamless SSO environment. This method also benefits organizations with existing on-premises infrastructure, as it does not require directory synchronization or complex configurations beyond the Azure AD Connect setup. It is particularly useful for organizations that wish to maintain a high level of security by ensuring that authentication happens in the on-premises environment. The other choices, while related to Azure and identity management, do not directly facilitate SSO in the same manner for users connected to a corporate network.
