You have a Microsoft 365 subscription.
You have a Conditional Access policy that has the following settings:
• Name: Policy 1
• Assignments
o Users:
- Include: All users
o Target resources
- Include: Select apps; Office 365
o Network
- Include: Any network or location
- Exclude: Selected networks and locations; Site1
o Access controls
- Grant: Require multifactor authentication, Require Hybrid Microsoft Entra joined device
You plan to implement Zero Trust Rapid Modernization Plan (RaMP).
You need to ensure that Policy1 aligns with best practice recommendations in RaMP.
Which setting should you change?
A. Include: Any network or location
B. Exclude: Selected networks and locations; Site1
C. Grant Require Hybrid Microsoft Entra joined device
D. Grant: Require multifactor authentication
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Zero Trust RaMP recommends enforcing Conditional Access consistently across all locations and avoiding trusted network/location exclusions. Excluding Site1 weakens Zero Trust by reintroducing network-based trust, so this setting should be changed.
Question 12
You have an Azure subscription and a Microsoft 365 subscription.
Your company uses several software as a service (SaaS) applications.
To align with Microsoft cloud security benchmark (MCSB) and Microsoft Cybersecurity Reference Architectures (MCRA), you plan to design a solution to provide visibility into user activity across the applications and detect potentially risky behavior in real time.
Which service should you recommend?
A. Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps
B. Microsoft Purview Information Protection
C. Microsoft Sentinel
D. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation: Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps (formerly MCAS) is designed to provide visibility into user activity across SaaS applications, detect risky behavior in real time, and enforce policies. It aligns with Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark and Microsoft Cybersecurity Reference Architectures for SaaS security monitoring. The other options focus on data classification (Purview), SIEM/SOAR aggregation (Sentinel), or endpoint protection (Defender for Endpoint), not SaaS app activity visibility.
Question 12
Your on-premises network contains an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain. The domain contains 500 Windows 11 devices.
You have a Microsoft 365 subscription and an Azure subscription.
You have a Microsoft Entra tenant that syncs with the domain and is linked to the subscriptions. The devices are Microsoft Entra hybrid joined.
You plan to deploy a solution to mitigate attacks against privileged accounts. The solution will include Microsoft Sentinel rules that will detect attempts to use fake cached credentials.
You need to recommend a solution to create the fake cached credentials on client computers.
What should you recommend?
A. User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) in Microsoft Sentinel
B. a deception rule in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
C. a user risk policy in Microsoft Entra ID Protection
D. a Honeytoken tag in Microsoft Defender for Identity
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: Microsoft Defender for Identity honeytokens are designed to create decoy (fake) credentials that are cached on endpoints. When attackers attempt to use these fake cached credentials, Defender for Identity detects the activity and can forward signals to Microsoft Sentinel for alerting and rules. The other options focus on analytics or policy enforcement and do not create fake cached credentials on client computers.
Question 13

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription.
You need to mitigate ransomware attacks against messages posted to Microsoft Teams channels and files stored in Teams channels.
What should you include in the solution for each type of content? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Messages: Exchange Online Protection (EOP)
Files: The Preservation Hold library
Explanation: Teams channel messages are protected against malicious content, including ransomware links and payloads, through Exchange Online Protection.
Teams channel files are stored in SharePoint Online, where the Preservation Hold library retains original copies of files during modifications or deletions, enabling recovery after ransomware activity.
Question 13
You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that contains a group named Group1. The subscription contains 1,000 Windows devices that are joined to a Microsoft Entra tenant and managed by using Microsoft Intune. All users sign in to the devices by using standard user accounts.
You plan to deploy a new app named App1 to the members of Group1. The Group1 members must have administrative rights to install new versions of App1.
You need to ensure that the Group1 members can install new versions of App1. The solution must follow the principles of Zero Trust.
What should you implement?
A. Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM)
B. Microsoft Intune Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM)
C. Microsoft Local Administrator Password Solution (Microsoft LAPS)
D. Microsoft Entra entitlement management
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: The requirement is to allow standard users to install new versions of a specific app while adhering to Zero Trust. Microsoft Intune Endpoint Privilege Management provides just‑in‑time, app‑scoped elevation so users can perform admin‑level tasks only for App1, without granting permanent local administrator rights. The elevation is time‑bound, auditable, and centrally managed, which aligns with Zero Trust principles. Other options either grant broader privileges, manage credentials, or focus on access governance rather than endpoint privilege elevation.

You have 500 Windows 11 devices and 200 macOS devices. The devices are managed by using Microsoft Intune and are subject to compliance policies.
You plan to deploy the following Intune features:
• Security baselines
• Remote lock of noncompliant devices
Which feature will be supported by each platform? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Security baselines: Windows only
Remote lock: macOS only
Explanation: Intune security baselines are available for Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices only. The Remote lock action is supported on macOS (and mobile platforms) but not on Windows devices.
Question 14

You plan to implement an Azure environment based on Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework for enterprise-scale landing zone architecture principles. The environment will host three apps that have the following characteristics:
• Each app will have a development environment, a test environment, and a production environment.
• Each environment will be managed by a separate team.
• Each app will store its secrets in Azure Key Vault.
You need to recommend how many Azure subscriptions and key vaults to deploy to the application landing zones.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Subscriptions: 9
Key vaults: 9
Explanation: Enterprise-scale landing zones recommend separating environments and teams by subscription. With 3 applications and 3 environments (dev, test, prod) per app, this results in 3 × 3 = 9 subscriptions. Secrets should be isolated per application environment, so each subscription hosts its own Key Vault, totaling 9 key vaults.
Question 15

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that uses Microsoft Teams.
Your company has an investment department and a research department. Each department has a compliance team.
You are designing a Microsoft Purview Information Barriers (IBs) solution to restrict communication between the departments. The solution must meet the following requirements:
• The employees in each department must only be able to communicate with the employees in their respective department.
• The employees on the compliance team of each department must be able to communicate with the employees on the compliance team of the other department.
What is the minimum number of segments and IB policies required? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Segments: 3
Policies: 2
Explanation: Create three segments: Investment users, Research users, and a shared Compliance segment. Compliance can communicate across departments by being in the same segment. To restrict cross-department communication, configure two one-way Information Barrier policies: Investment → Research (blocked) and Research → Investment (blocked).

You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure Synapse Analytics workspace named workspace1. workspace1 contains a built-in serverless SQL pool and a dedicated SQL pool named Pool1.
You need to recommend a second layer of data encryption for workspace1.
What should you include in the recommendation for each pool? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation: Dedicated SQL pools support Transparent Data Encryption as an additional encryption layer on top of default storage encryption. Serverless SQL pools store data in Azure storage and support infrastructure (server-side) encryption with Microsoft-managed keys, but do not support TDE.
Question 16
You have an Azure subscription that uses Microsoft Defender for Cloud.
You have Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) subscriptions.
You create a custom security standard in Defender for Cloud.
To which subscriptions can the Defender for Cloud standard be applied?
A. Azure and AWS only
B. Azure and GCP only
C. Azure, AWS, and GCP only
D. Azure, AWS, and OCI only
E. Azure, AWS, GCP, and OCI
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Microsoft Defender for Cloud custom security standards can be applied to Azure subscriptions and to connected AWS and GCP environments. Defender for Cloud currently does not support applying custom standards to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), which only has limited native support. Therefore, the applicable subscriptions are Azure, AWS, and GCP only.
