If your Azure AD is synched with On-Prem AD DS through AD Connect then you will see after a while a notification on Azure Portal under Seamless single sign-on
Seamless SSO can be combined with either the Password Hash Synchronization or Pass-through Authentication sign-in methods. However, this feature cannot be used with Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS).
This feature is free and you don’t need Azure P1 or P2 subscription. Microsoft highly recommends that you roll over the Kerberos decryption key at least every 30 days.
So, how do we roll over the Kerberos decryption key for Azure AD?
Login to your AD On-Prem server and follow these steps from PowerShell

NuGet provider is required to continue
PowerShellGet requires NuGet provider version ‘2.8.5.201’ or newer to interact with NuGet-based repositories. The NuGet
provider must be available in ‘C:\Program Files\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies’ or
‘C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies’. You can also install the NuGet provider by
running ‘Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force’. Do you want PowerShellGet to install
and import the NuGet provider now?
