Question 83

HOTSPOT - You have an Azure subscription that contains multiple storage accounts. The accounts contain Azure Files shares and Azure Blob Storage containers. The accounts have encryption scopes and infrastructure encryption enabled. You need to implement customer-managed key-based encryption for the shares and the containers. The solution must ensure that the encryption keys are applied at the most granular level. At which level should you apply the encryption keys? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-100 question 83
Show Answer
Correct Answer: For the containers: Blob For the shares: Share
Explanation:
Azure Blob Storage supports customer-managed keys at the encryption scope level, which can be applied as granularly as an individual blob. Azure Files supports customer-managed keys at the file share level; individual files cannot have separate keys.

Question 84

HOTSPOT - Your company has two offices named Office1 and Office2. The offices contain 1,000 on-premises Windows 11 devices that are Microsoft Entra joined. You have a Microsoft 365 subscription and use Microsoft Intune. You plan to deploy Microsoft Entra Internet Access from the offices to Microsoft 365. You enable the Microsoft 365 profile and configure the following: • A traffic policy for all Microsoft 365 traffic • A linked Conditional Access policy that has the following configurations: o Applies to all users o Performs compliant network checks o Allows Microsoft 365 traffic from compliant devices • An assignment to all devices • An assignment to the remote network associated with Office1 You deploy the Global Secure Access client to all the devices in Office2 and establish connections. Which users can access Microsoft 365 services from compliant devices, and which users are blocked from accessing Microsoft 365 services when using noncompliant devices? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-100 question 84
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Compliant devices: Office1 and Office2 Noncompliant devices: Office1 only
Explanation:
The traffic policy and Conditional Access policy apply to all devices and users, but enforcement depends on whether traffic is evaluated through Microsoft Entra Internet Access. Office1 is explicitly assigned via its remote network, so Conditional Access compliant network checks apply there. From compliant devices, users in both offices can access Microsoft 365. From noncompliant devices, users in Office1 are blocked because the Conditional Access policy is enforced, while Office2 traffic is not tied to the remote network assignment, so those users are not blocked by the policy.

Question 85

You have an Azure subscription. You plan to deploy Azure App Services apps by using Azure DevOps. You need to recommend a solution to ensure that deployed apps maintain compliance with Microsoft cloud security benchmark (MCSB) recommendations. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. DevOps security in Microsoft Defender for Cloud
B. Microsoft Defender for App Service
C. Azure Policy
D. a branch policy in Azure DevOps
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Azure Policy provides built-in initiatives aligned to the Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark (MCSB) and can enforce, audit, or remediate compliance for Azure App Service resources during and after deployment. This ensures apps deployed via Azure DevOps maintain required security configurations. Other options either focus on detection/monitoring or development workflows rather than enforcing MCSB compliance.

Question 86

You have an Azure subscription that contains multiple Azure Blob Storage accounts. You need to recommend a solution to detect threats in files after the files are uploaded to a blob container. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. sensitive data threat detection in Microsoft Defender for Storage
B. runtime threat protection in Microsoft Defender for Containers
C. vulnerability assessment in Microsoft Defender for Containers
D. malware scanning in Microsoft Defender for Storage
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
The requirement is to detect threats in files after they are uploaded to Azure Blob Storage. Malware scanning in Microsoft Defender for Storage is specifically designed to scan blobs for malicious content (on-upload or on-demand) and generate alerts when malware is detected. The other options focus on containers or data sensitivity rather than scanning file contents for malware.

Question 87

You have an Azure subscription that contains multiple Azure Data Lake Storage accounts. You need to recommend a solution to encrypt the content of the accounts by using service-side encryption and customer-managed keys. The solution must ensure that individual encryption keys are applied at the most granular level. At which level should you recommend the encryption be applied?

A. file
B. container
C. folder
D. account
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Azure Data Lake Storage (Gen2) uses Azure Storage service-side encryption. With customer-managed keys (CMK), encryption can be scoped at the storage account or, at the most granular supported level, the container. File- or folder-level encryption with CMK is not supported for service-side encryption, and customer-provided keys per request are not considered service-side encryption.

Question 88

Your company has a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription. The company wants to identify and classify data in Microsoft Teams, SharePoint Online, and Exchange Online. You need to recommend a solution to identify documents that contain sensitive information. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. content explorer
B. data loss prevention (DLP)
C. eDiscovery
D. data lifecycle management
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
To identify documents that contain sensitive information across Microsoft Teams, SharePoint Online, and Exchange Online, you need a capability that actively scans content using sensitive information types. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies do exactly this by detecting and classifying sensitive data across Microsoft 365 workloads. Content Explorer only provides visibility into data that has already been identified by labels or DLP and does not perform identification itself. eDiscovery and data lifecycle management serve different purposes (legal hold and retention).

Question 89

You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains 100 virtual machines that run Windows Server. The virtual machines are managed by using Azure Policy and Microsoft Defender for Servers. You need to enhance security on the virtual machines. The solution must meet the following requirements: • Ensure that only apps on an allowlist can be run. • Require administrators to confirm each app added to the allowlist. • Automatically add unauthorized apps to a blocklist when an attempt is made to launch the app. • Require administrators to approve an app before the app can be moved from the blocklist to the allowlist. What should you include in the solution?

A. a compute policy in Azure Policy
B. app governance in Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps
C. admin consent settings for enterprise applications in Microsoft Entra ID
D. adaptive application controls in Defender for Servers
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Adaptive application controls in Microsoft Defender for Servers provide application allowlisting for Windows Server VMs. They require administrator approval for apps added to the allowlist, automatically place unknown or unauthorized applications on a blocklist when execution is attempted, and require explicit admin approval to move apps from the blocklist to the allowlist. The other options do not provide VM-level application allowlisting and enforcement.

Question 90

HOTSPOT - You have a Microsoft 365 tenant. You need to recommend a Microsoft 365 Defender solution to enhance security for the tenant. The solution must meet the following requirements: • Identify users that are downloading an unusually high number of files from Microsoft SharePoint Online sites and are possibly involved in a data exfiltration attempt. • Block Microsoft Teams messages that contain potentially malicious content by using zero-hour auto purge (ZAP). What should you recommend for each requirement? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-100 question 90
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Identify data exfiltration attempts: Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps Block Teams messages: Microsoft Defender for Office 365
Explanation:
Defender for Cloud Apps detects anomalous SharePoint Online activity such as unusually high download volumes that indicate possible data exfiltration. Defender for Office 365 supports Zero-hour Auto Purge (ZAP) to detect and block potentially malicious Microsoft Teams messages.

Question 91

HOTSPOT - You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains an Azure application gateway that use Azure Web Application Firewall (WAF). You deploy new Azure App Services web apps. Each app is registered automatically in the DNS domain of your company and accessible from the Internet. You need to recommend a security solution that meets the following requirements: • Detects vulnerability scans of the apps • Detects whether newly deployed apps are vulnerable to attack What should you recommend using? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-100 question 91
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Azure Web Application Firewall (WAF) Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management (Defender EASM)
Explanation:
Azure WAF inspects incoming HTTP(S) traffic using managed rule sets and can detect common vulnerability scanning and attack patterns. Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management continuously discovers internet‑facing assets (such as newly registered DNS endpoints) and assesses them for exposures and vulnerabilities, including newly deployed apps.

Question 93

DRAG DROP - You have an Azure subscription that contains a resources group named RG1. RG1 contains multiple Azure Files shares. You need to recommend a solution to deploy a backup solution for the shares. The solution must meet the following requirements: • Prevent the deletion of backups and the vault used to store the backups. • Prevent privilege escalation attacks against the backup solution. • Prevent the modification of the backup retention period. Which three actions should you recommend be performed in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Illustration for SC-100 question 93
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Create a Recovery Services vault. Enable vault immutability. Lock immutability for the vault.
Explanation:
Azure Files backup uses a Recovery Services vault (not an Azure Backup vault). Enabling immutability protects backups and retention settings from deletion or change, and locking immutability makes this protection irreversible, preventing privilege escalation and retention modification.
