1Z0-1072-26 Identity And Access Management Practice Question
You are designing an IAM policy hierarchy for a multi-tenant OCI environment. You write the following statement in the root compartment: 'Define tenancy TenantA as ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaa...; Define group NetworkAdmins as ocid1.group.oc1..aaaaaaa...; Allow group NetworkAdmins to manage virtual-network-family in tenancy TenantA'. What type of policy cross-tenancy grant does this represent?
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
✓
A cross-tenancy policy where the remote group is granted permissions within the defining tenancy.
This represents a remote policy (or cross-tenancy access) where the administrator of TenantA trusts a principal (NetworkAdmins) from another tenancy by defining the remote tenancy and group, and allowing them access.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
A cross-tenancy policy where TenantA is the granting tenancy and the principal belongs to an external identity provider.
Why it's wrong here
The principal belongs to another OCI tenancy, not an external SAML IdP.
- ✗
A local policy granting compartment-level administration.
Why it's wrong here
The statement explicitly defines a remote tenancy and group, making it cross-tenancy.
- ✓
A cross-tenancy policy where the remote group is granted permissions within the defining tenancy.
Why this is correct
Cross-tenancy access involves using 'Define tenancy' and 'Define group' statements to grant external principals access to local resources.
- ✗
An invalid policy because cross-tenancy policies cannot span virtual network families.
Why it's wrong here
Virtual network families can be shared across tenancies using proper cross-tenancy policy syntax.
