Correct answer & explanation
✓
Azure AD B2C
Azure AD B2C (Business-to-Consumer) is the identity provider that supports social identity providers like Google, Facebook, and Microsoft accounts. It allows external users to register using their social media accounts. Local authentication is for username/password within the site, not social accounts. Microsoft Entra ID is for organizational accounts. Microsoft account is a single social provider, but Azure AD B2C is the configured identity provider that can integrate multiple social providers.
