Drag and Drop Question
You are developing a .NET Core model-view controller (MVC) application hosted on Azure for a health care system that allows providers access to their information.
You develop the following code:
You define a role named SysAdmin.
You need to ensure that the application meets the following authorization requirements:
- Allow the ProviderAdmin and SysAdmin roles access to the Partner controller regardless of whether the user holds an editor claim of partner.
- Limit access to the Manage action of the controller to users with an editor claim of partner who are also members of the SysAdmin role.
How should you complete the code? To answer, drag the appropriate code segments to the correct locations. Each code segment may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1:
Allow the ProviderAdmin and SysAdmin roles access to the Partner controller regardless of whether the user holds an editor claim of partner.
Box 2:
Limit access to the Manage action of the controller to users with an editor claim of partner who are also members of the SysAdmin role.

Case Study 8 - VanArsdel, Ltd
Background
VanArsdel, Ltd. is a global office supply company. The company is based in Canada and has retail store locations across the world. The company is developing several cloud-based solutions to support their stores, distributors, suppliers, and delivery services.
Current environment
Corporate website
The company provides a public website located at http://www.vanarsdelltd.com. The website consists of a React JavaScript user interface, HTML, CSS, image assets, and several APIs hosted in Azure Functions.
Retail Store Locations
The company supports thousands of store locations globally. Store locations send data every hour to an Azure Blob storage account to support inventory, purchasing and delivery services.
Each record includes a location identifier and sales transaction information.
Requirements
The application components must meet the following requirements:
Corporate website
- Secure the website by using SSL.
- Minimize costs for data storage and hosting.
- Implement native GitHub workflows for continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD).
- Distribute the website content globally for local use.
- Implement monitoring by using Application Insights and availability web tests including SSL certificate validity and custom header value verification.
- The website must have 99.95 percent uptime.
Retail store locations
- Azure Functions must process data immediately when data is uploaded to Blob storage. Azure Functions must update Azure Cosmos DB by using native SQL language queries.
- Audit store sale transaction information nightly to validate data, process sales financials, and reconcile inventory.
Delivery services
- Store service telemetry data in Azure Cosmos DB by using an Azure Function. Data must include an item id, the delivery vehicle license plate, vehicle package capacity, and current vehicle location coordinates.
- Store delivery driver profile information in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) by using an Azure Function called from the corporate website.
Inventory services
The company has contracted a third-party to develop an API for inventory processing that requires access to a specific blob within the retail store storage account for three months to include read-only access to the data.
Security
- All Azure Functions must centralize management and distribution of configuration data for different environments and geographies, encrypted by using a company-provided RSA-HSM key.
- Authentication and authorization must use Azure AD and services must use managed identities where possible.
Issues
Retail Store Locations
- You must perform a point-in-time restoration of the retail store location data due to an unexpected and accidental deletion of data.
- Azure Cosmos DB queries from the Azure Function exhibit high Request Unit (RU) usage and contain multiple, complex queries that exhibit high point read latency for large items as the function app is scaling.
Question
Hotspot Question
You need to reliably identify the delivery driver profile information.
How should you configure the system? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
Box 1: ID
Scenario: Store delivery driver profile information in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) by using an Azure Function called from the corporate website.
ID token - A JWT that contains claims that you can use to identify users in your application. This token is securely sent in HTTP requests for communication between two components of the same application or service. You can use the claims in an ID token as you see fit. They're commonly used to display account information or to make access control decisions in an application. ID tokens are signed, but the're not encrypted. When your application or API receives an ID token, it must validate the signature to prove that the token is authentic. Your application or API must also validate a few claims in the token to prove that it's valid.
Depending on the scenario requirements, the claims validated by an application can vary, but your application must perform some common claim validations in every scenario.
Box 2: Oid
Oid - The immutable identifier for the "principal" of the request - the user or service principal whose identity has been verified. In ID tokens and app+user tokens, this is the object ID of the user. In app-only tokens, this is the object ID of the calling service principal. It can also be used to perform authorization checks safely and as a key in database tables. This ID uniquely identifies the principal across applications - two different applications signing in the same user will receive the same value in the oid claim.
