GitHub is listed as one of the identity providers. Check the Microsoft document: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/overview-authentication-authorization#identity-providers
No, GitHub is not considered a cloud-based identity provider in the context of the SC-900 Microsoft certification, which focuses on Microsoft's security, compliance, and identity fundamentals; while you can use GitHub for authentication on some platforms, its primary function is as a code hosting platform, not a dedicated identity management service like Azure Active Directory which is what the SC-900 would typically refer to as a cloud-based identity provider
In summary, while a central identity provider plays a crucial role in managing authentication and authorization, it does not necessarily manage all aspects of these services in every scenario, and organizations often use a combination of tools and practices to achieve comprehensive identity and access management.

1. GitHub is listed as idP on official documentation = "Microsoft Entra is an example of a cloud-based identity provider. Other examples include X, Google, Amazon, LinkedIn, and GitHub".
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/fundamentals/identity-fundamental-concepts#identity-provider
2. "When you set up SSO to work between multiple identity providers, it's called federation."
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/enterprise-apps/what-is-single-sign-on#single-sign-on-options
3. Auditing = "monitor user behavior, identify suspicious activities" as in "With a central identity provider, organizations can establish authentication and authorization policies, monitor user behavior, identify suspicious activities"
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/fundamentals/identity-fundamental-concepts#identity-provider
The answer is Yes, Yes, Yes: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/fundamentals/identity-fundamental-concepts
- Microsoft Entra is an example of a cloud-based identity provider. Other examples include X, Google, Amazon, LinkedIn, and GitHub.
-Federation : When you set up SSO to work between multiple identity providers, it's called federation. An SSO implementation based on federation protocols improves security, reliability, end-user experiences, and implementation. source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/enterprise-apps/what-is-single-sign-on
- An identity provider creates, maintains, and manages identity information while offering authentication, authorization, and auditing services
"Auditing" I think that is what makes this one wrong...
Modern authentication is an umbrella term for a combination of authentication and authorization methods
Also an Identity Provider (IDP) creates, maintains, and manages identity information while offering authentication, authorization, and auditing services no mention of Modern Auth.
This one is tricky
1st one is False. GitHub is primarily a repository hosting service, it offers some authentication features, it is not a dedicated identity provider like Azure AD
YYY
Federation - When you set up SSO to work between multiple identity providers, it's called federation.
With modern authentication, all services, including all authentication services, are supplied by a central identity provider.

exactly "With modern authentication, all services, including all authentication services, are supplied by a central identity provider." no mention of AUDITING ... I think its NYN
And another one wrong in this....
An identity provider creates, maintains, and manages identity information while offering authentication, authorization, and auditing services.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/fundamentals/identity-fundamental-concepts
NYN
GitHub surely isn’t an identity provider.
A modern identity provider should manage authentication and authorization but auditing might be manages by a separate system.
Correct YYN. Git Hub can be used as Identity Provider
