This question is making me a little nervous. I know Active Directory is involved with identity and authentication, but I'm not totally clear on the distinctions between the different roles listed here. I'll have to review my notes and try to reason through the best answer.

Okay, let me see if I can break this down. The employee portal is set up to work with Active Directory, which means AD is likely handling the user authentication and identity management. So I'm thinking the correct answer is either A or B. I'll have to weigh the differences between those two options.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know Active Directory is used for identity management, but I'm not sure if it's acting as the identity store, authentication store, identity provider, or something else in this scenario. I'll have to think it through carefully.
