Through Event horizon and Angular momentum
The duality works for black holes whose near-horizon geometry can be expressed as a product of AdS3 and a single compact coordinate. The AdS/CFT duality then maps this to a two-dimensional conformal field theory (the compact coordinate being analogous to the S5 factor in Maldacena's original work), from which the correct Bekenstein entropy can then be deduced.
The original form of the duality applies to black holes with the maximum value of angular momentum, but it has now been speculatively extended to all lesser values.
