Explanation

Configuring Mobile App settings in connected app and Salesforce as identity provider for non-Salesforce internal apps is the best way to meet the requirements with the privately distributed mobile app. The Mobile App settings allow users to download the app from a private URL and use it with Salesforce credentials. The identity provider settings allow users to access other internal apps with SSO using Salesforce as the IdP. The other options are either not feasible or not optimal for this use case.

Explanation

Creating a token is one of the roles of an Identity Provider in a Single Sign-on setup using SAML. SAMLis a standard protocol that allows users to access multiple applications with a single login. In SAML, an Identity Provider (IdP) is a system that authenticates users and issues a security token that contains information about the user’s identity and permissions. A Service Provider (SP) is a system that consumes the token and grants access to the user based on the token’s attributes. The other options are not roles of an IdP, but rather functions of the SAML protocol or the SP.

Explanation

To implement social sign-on for customers to register and log in to a portal built on Salesforce Experience Cloud using their Facebook or LinkedIn credentials, the identity architect should take three steps:

Create authentication providers for both Facebook and LinkedIn. Authentication providers are configurations that enable users to authenticate with an external identity provider and access Salesforce resources. Salesforce provides predefined authentication providers for some common identity providers, such as Facebook and LinkedIn, which can be easily configured with minimal customization.

Check “Facebook” and “LinkedIn” under Login Page Setup. Login Page Setup is a setting that allows administrators to customize the login page for Experience Cloud sites. By checking “Facebook” and “LinkedIn”, the identity architect can enable social sign-on buttons for these identity providers on the login page.

Update the default registration handlers to create and update users. Registration handlers are classes that implement the Auth. Registration Handler interface and define how to create or update users in Salesforce based on the information from the external identity provider. The identity architect can update the default registration handlers to link the user’s social identity with their Salesforce identity and prevent duplicate accounts. References: Authentication Providers, Social Sign-On with Authentication Providers, Login Page Setup, Create a Custom Registration Handler.

Explanation

The best way to meet the requirements of UC isto implement Just-In-Time Provisioning on the mainframe to create the user on the fly. According to the Salesforce documentation, “Just-in-time provisioning lets you create or update user accounts on the fly when users log in to Salesforce using single sign-on (SSO).” This way, UC can authenticate users to Salesforce using their mainframe credentials and also create or update their user accounts in Salesforce without using a SAML provider. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

Explanation

To use Salesforce Identity to control access to the custom time tracking app, the identity architect should use the Identity Only license. The Identity Only license is a license type that enables users to access external applications that are integrated with Salesforce using single sign-on (SSO) or delegated authentication, but not access Salesforce objects or data. The other license types are not relevant for this scenario.

References: Identity Only License, User Licenses

Explanation

D is correct because External Identity license is designed forcustomers who need to log in to Salesforce using external authentication providers, such as Facebook and Google. External Identity license also supports App Launcher, which allows customers to access other applications from Salesforce using OAuth or OpenIDConnect .

A is incorrect because Customer Community license is designed for customers who need to access data and records in Salesforce, such as cases, accounts, and contacts. Customer Community license does not support App Launcher or external authentication providers.

B is incorrect because Identity license is designed for employees who need to access multiple applications from Salesforce using SSO and App Launcher. Identity license does not support external authentication providers or customer data access.

C is incorrect because Customer Community Plus license is designed for customers who need to access data and records in Salesforce, as well as collaborate with other customers and partners. Customer Community Plus license does not support App Launcheror external authentication providers.

Explanation

The OAuth feature of Salesforce that should be used to restrict the types of resources mobile users can access is scopes. Scopes are parameters that specify the level of access that the mobile app requests from Salesforce when it obtains an OAuth token. Scopes can be used to limit the access to certain resources or actions, such as API calls, full access, web access, or refresh token. By configuring scopes in the connected app settings, Universal Containers can control what the mobile app can do with the OAuth token and protect against unauthorized or excessive access.

References: [OAuth Scopes], [Connected Apps], [OAuth Authorization Flows]

Explanation

This is an OAuth authorization flow that allows a webserver application to obtain an access token to access Salesforce resources on behalf of the user1. This flow is suitable for integrating a desktop application with Salesforce, as it does not require the user to enter their credentials in the application, but rather redirects them to the Salesforce login page to authenticate and authorize theapplication2. This way, the integration between the desktop application and Salesforce is seamless and secure. The other options are not optimal for this requirement because:

JWT Bearer Token Flow is an OAuth authorization flow that allows a client application to obtain an access token by sending a signed JSON Web Token (JWT) to Salesforce3. This flow does not involve user interaction, and requires the client application to have a certificate and a private key to sign the JWT. This flow is more suitable for server-to-server integration, not for desktop application integration.

User Agent Flow is an OAuth authorization flow that allows a user-agent-based application (such as a browser or a mobile app) to obtain an access token by redirecting the user to Salesforce and receiving the token in the URL fragment4. This flow is not suitable for desktop application integration, as it requires the application to parse the URL fragment and store the token securely.

Username and Password Flow is an OAuth authorization flow that allows a client application to obtain an access token by sending the user’s username and password to Salesforce5. This flow is not recommended for desktop application integration, as it requires the user to enter their credentials in the application, which is not secure or seamless.

Explanation

A 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) solution is a type of multi-factor authentication (MFA) that requires users to provide two verification factors to access a system or application. The verification factors can be something the user knows (e.g., password), something the user has (e.g., phone), or something the user is (e.g., fingerprint). A 2FA solution can help prevent common cyberattacks that rely on stealing or guessing passwords, such as:

Key logging attacks: These are attacks where a malicious program records the keystrokes of a user, including their passwords, and sends them to the attacker. A 2FA solution can prevent this attack by requiring an additional factor that is not typed by the user, such as a verification code sent to their phone or a biometric scan.

Phishing attacks: These are attacks where an attacker sends a fake email or website that looks like it came from a trusted source,and tricks the user into providing their credentials or other sensitive information. A 2FA solution can prevent this attack by requiring an additional factor that is not known by the attacker, such as a verification code generated by an authenticator appor a hardware token.

Dictionary attacks: These are attacks where an attacker tries to guess a user’s password by using a list of common or likely passwords, such as “password” or “123456”. A 2FA solution can prevent this attack by requiring an additional factor that is not based on a password, such as a fingerprint scan or a facial recognition.

A man-in-the-middle attack is when an attacker intercepts and alters the communication between two parties, such as a user and a website. A 2-Factor Authentication solution can help prevent this type of attack by requiring a second factor of authentication thatthe attacker cannot access or spoof, such as a code sent to the user’s phone or a hardware token.

Explanation

To provision users in Salesforce from Active Directory without doing any initial setup of users in Salesforce, UC can use an app exchange product or Identity Connect. An app exchange product is a third-party application that can synchronize users and groups from Active Directory to Salesforce using a web-based interface1. Identity Connect is a desktop application that can synchronize users and groups from Active Directory to Salesforce using a graphical user interface2. Both solutions can also map Active Directory attributes to Salesforce fields and assign profiles, roles, and permission sets to users12.

References: Active Directory Integration with Salesforce, Identity Connect

Explanation

To allow Salesforce profiles to be managed from a central system of record, the architect should recommend to implement JIT provisioning on the SAML IDP that will pass the profile ID in each assertion. JIT provisioning is a process that creates or updates user accounts on Salesforce based on information sent by an external identity provider (IDP) during SAML authentication. By passing the profile ID in each assertion, the IDP can control which profile is assigned to each user.

Option B is not a good choice because creating an Apex scheduled job in one org that will synchronize the other orgs profile may not be scalable, reliable, or secure.

Option C is not a good choice because implementing Delegated Authentication that will update the user profiles as necessary may not be feasible, as Delegated Authentication only verifies the user’s credentials against an external service, but does not pass any other information to Salesforce.

Option D is not a good choice because implementing an OAuth JWT flow to pass the profile credentials between systems may not be suitable, as OAuth JWTflow is used for server-to-server integration, not for user authentication.

Explanation

The update User() methodonthe Registration Handler class is used to update the Salesforce user record with information from the Facebook profile, such as name, email, and photo1. This method is invoked every time a user logs in to Salesforce using Facebook credentials2. The other options are not suitable for this requirement because:

SAML Just-In-Time Provisioning is used to create or update users in Salesforce based on SAML assertions from an identity provider3. Facebook does not support SAML as an identity provider. The Signed Request is a parameter that contains information about the user who is logging in to Salesforce via Facebook. It does not contain the user’s profile information, such as name, email, or photo.

A scheduled job that calls out to Facebook on a nightly basis would not reflect the changes in the Facebook profile in real time, as the requirement states. It would also require storing the user’s Facebook access token and making API calls to Facebook,which could be inefficient and insecure.
