Case Study 1 - Fabrikam, Inc
Overview
Fabrikam, Inc is a manufacturing company that has a main office in New York and a branch office in Seattle.
Existing Environment
On-premises Servers
The on-premises network contains servers that run Windows Server as shown in the following table.

DC1 hosts all the operation master roles.
WEB1 and WEB2 run an Internet Information Services (IIS) web app named Webapp1.
On-premises Network
The New York and Seattle offices are connected by using redundant WAN links.
The client computers in each office get IP addresses from their local DHCP server.
DHCP1 contains a scope named Scope1 that has addresses for the New York office, DHCP2 contains a scope named Scope2 that has addresses for the Seattle office.
Identity Infrastructure
The network contains a single on-premises Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain named corp.falbrikam.com. Currently, all the service accounts use individual domain user accounts.
All domain controllers have the DNS Server role installed and host a copy of the Active Directory integrated DNS zone of corp.fabrikam.com.
The corp.fabrikam.com AD DS domain syncs with an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant.
Group Policy Objects (GPOs)
The corp.fabrikam.com domain contains the organizational units (OUs) and custom Group Policy Objects (GPOs) shown in the following table.

Requirements
Planned Changes
Fabrikam identifies the following planned changes:
* Create a single Azure subscription named Sub1 that will contain a single Azure virtual network named Vnet1.
* Replace the WAN links between the Seattle and New York offices by using Azure Virtual WAN and FxpressRoute. Both on premises offices will be connected to Vnet1 by using ExpressRoute.
* Create three Azure file shares named newyorkhiles, seattlefiles, and companyfiles.
* Create a domain controller named dc3.corp.fabrikam.com in Vnet1.
* Deploy an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool to Vnet1. The Azure Virtual Desktop session hosts will be hybrid Azure AD-joined.
* License all servers for Microsoft Defender for servers.
* Use Azure Policy to enforce configuration management policies on the servers in Azure and on- premises.
Networking Requirements
Fabrikam identifies the following networking requirements:
* Implement Virtual WAN and ensure that all the network traffic between the sites uses Virtual WAN. All communications must occur over ExpressRoute.
* If a DHCP server fails, ensure that the client computers can continue to receive their dynamic IP address and renew their existing lease.
* Ensure that the resources in Vnet1 can resolve the names of the on-premises servers in the corp.fabrikam.com domain.
Security Requirements
Fabrikam identifies the following security requirements:
* Apply GPO4 to the Azure Virtual Desktop session hosts. Ensure that Azure Virtual Desktop user sessions lock after being idle for 10 minutes. Users must be able to control the lockout time manually from their client computer.
* Ensure that server administrators request approval before they can establish a Remote Desktop connection to an Azure virtual machine. If the request is approved, the connection must be established within two hours.
* Prevent user passwords from containing all or part of words that are based on the company name, such as Fab, f@br1kAm or fabr!|.
* Ensure that all instances of Webapp1 use the same service account. The password of the service account must change automatically every 30 days.
* Prevent domain controllers from directly contacting hosts on the internet.
File Sharing Requirements
You need to configure the synchronization of Azure files to meet the following requirements:
* Ensure that seattlefiles syncs to FS2.
* Ensure that newyorkfiles syncs to FS1.
* Ensure that companyfiles syncs to both FS1 and FS2.

Hotspot Question
You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that is linked to a Microsoft Entra tenant named contoso.com. Contoso.com contains the users shown in the following table.

You deploy a virtual machine that has the following configurations:
- Name: VM1
- Resource group: RG1
- Operating system: Windows Server
- Login with Microsoft Entra ID: Enabled
You have the Azure role assignments shown in the following table.

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.


Explanation:
Box 1: No
User1 is a member.
User1 has the Virtual Machine Contributor role with scope RG1.
VM1 is in RG1 and has Entra login enabled.
A user with the Virtual Machine Contributor role in Azure AD (Entra ID) does not automatically have the ability to log in to a virtual machine with Entra ID login enabled. While the Contributor role provides significant management capabilities for the VM, it does not inherently grant the specific permissions needed for interactive login using Entra ID credentials.
Box 2: No
User2 is a guest.
User2 has the Virtual Machine User login role with scope RG1.
A guest user in an Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) tenant cannot log in to an Azure VM using Entra ID authentication, even if they have the Virtual Machine User Login role assigned. Entra guest accounts are not supported for Azure VM login via Entra ID authentication.
Box 3: Yes
User3 is a member.
User3 has the Virtual Machine Administrator login role with scope RG1.
A user who is a member of an Entra domain and has the "Virtual Machine Administrator Login" role assigned can log in to a virtual machine with Entra ID login enabled. This role grants users the necessary permissions to sign in to Azure virtual machines with administrator privileges Reference:

SIMULATION
You need to create a user named Admin1 in contoso.com. Admin1 must be able to back up and restore files on SRV1. The solution must use principle of the least privilege.
To complete this task, sign in the required computer or computers.
Add a new user
You can create a new user using the Azure Active Directory portal.
To add a new user, follow these steps:
Step 1. Sign in to the Azure portal in the User Administrator role for the organization.
Step 2: Search for and select Azure Active Directory from any page.
Step 3: Select Users, and then select New user.

Step 4: On the User page, enter information for this user:
Name: Admin1
User name: Admin1
Groups. Optional
Groups. Optional: Backup Operator
Step 5: Copy the autogenerated password provided in the Password box. You'll need to give this password to the user to sign in for the first time.
Step 6: Select Create.
The user is created and added to your Azure AD organization.
Note:
Azure Backup provides three built-in roles to control backup management operations.
Backup Operator - This role has permissions to everything a contributor does except removing backup and managing backup policies. This role is equivalent to contributor except it can't perform destructive operations such as stop backup with delete data or remove registration of on- premises resources.
Incorrect:
Backup Contributor - This role has all permissions to create and manage backup except deleting Recovery Services vault and giving access to others. Imagine this role as admin of backup management who can do every backup management operation.
Backup Reader - This role has permissions to view all backup management operations. Imagine this role to be a monitoring person.
