Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Microsoft Intune tenant
Options A, B, and E are correct. Co-management requires Microsoft Intune tenant (A) for cloud enrollment, Configuration Manager current branch (B) for on-premises management, and Microsoft Entra ID (E) for identity synchronization and hybrid join. Option C is not a requirement; the service connection point is used for cloud attach but is not mandatory for co-management. Option D is not required; PKI certificates are optional for co-management, as Intune can handle certificate enrollment via SCEP or PKCS if needed.
