You have an Azure AD tenant that syncs with an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain.
You have an on-premises datacenter that contains 100 servers. The servers run Windows Server and are backed up by using Microsoft Azure Backup Server (MABS).
You are designing a recovery solution for ransomware attacks. The solution follows Microsoft Security Best Practices.
You need to ensure that a compromised administrator account cannot be used to delete the backups
What should you do?

PIM role assignment sounds good, but is it really enough?

Wait, can compromised accounts really bypass these measures?

Definitely go with Resource Guard for better protection.

I think the security PIN option is too basic for this scenario.

I’m a bit confused about the role assignment in Azure AD PIM; does that really prevent a compromised account from deleting backups?

I practiced a similar question where we had to secure backups, and I feel like configuring multi-user authorization was the answer there too.

I think generating a security PIN for critical operations could help, but it seems like there might be a better option to prevent admin account misuse.

I remember something about using multi-user authorization to protect backups, but I'm not entirely sure if Resource Guard is the right feature for this scenario.

Hmm, this looks like it's asking about a specific feature of Puppet Labs. I'll need to think carefully about the options and see if I can recall what each one refers to.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The clock issue could be caused by a few different things, so I'll need to think through the options carefully to determine the best solution.

I feel like we covered DNS zones in class, but I'm not entirely clear on how they relate to routing calls to unknown domains.

I remember that database sync is crucial for SSO to work correctly. If they hadn't synced, that could definitely explain why only half the clients are showing up.

Wait, so we're trying to stop a hacker from deleting backups? Sounds like a job for Azure's version of James Bond! Option B it is - gotta keep those backups secure, no matter how sneaky the bad guys get.

Option C, really? Registering MABS with a Recovery Services vault is important, but it doesn't address the security issue of a compromised admin account. I'm sticking with Option B - multi-user authorization is the way to go!

Haha, option A with the security PIN? Sounds like something out of a spy movie! But I guess it could work for critical operations. Still, I think Option B is the way to go for this scenario.

Yeah, having multiple users authorize critical operations seems like a safer bet.

I agree, it does sound pretty cool. But I think Option B with multi-user authorization is more practical.

I'm going with Option D. Assigning the Backup Contributor role through PIM will give the necessary permissions while still maintaining control over who can access the backups. Seems like a good way to follow the security best practices.

Option D sounds like the best choice. It's important to limit access to backups to prevent them from being deleted.

Option B looks like the best choice here. Configuring multi-user authorization with Resource Guard will help prevent a compromised admin account from deleting the backups. Solid security practice!

I think we should go with option D, using Azure AD Privileged Identity Management to create a role assignment for the Backup Contributor role.
