You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains 100 virtual machines that run Linux on Windows Server. The subscription uses Microsoft Defender for Servers Plan 1.
You need to recommend a solution to identify and remediate virtual machines that have the following characteristics:
• Are NOT onboarded to Defender for Servers
• Are missing critical updates
• Have risky apps installed
The solution must minimize administrative effort.
What should you include in the recommendation?
A. Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management (Defender EASM)
B. Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management
C. Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence (Defender TI)
D. Microsoft Intune Advanced Analytics
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management provides unified vulnerability assessment and remediation capabilities, including identifying devices not properly onboarded to Defender, detecting missing security updates, and discovering vulnerable or risky applications. It is the Microsoft solution that best satisfies all three requirements while minimizing administrative effort.
Question 43
You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains 200 virtual machines that run Windows Server 2022 and are protected by using Microsoft Defender for Servers Plan 1. You have an Amazon Web Services (AWS) subscription.
To the AWS subscription, you plan to deploy 100 virtual machines that run Windows Server 2022.
You need to recommend which agent to deploy to the virtual machines in the AWS subscription. The solution must meet the following requirements:
• Provide consistent workload protection across all cloud platforms.
• Minimize the number of agents deployed to each virtual machine.
What should you recommend?
A. the log Analytics agent
B. the Azure Connected Machine agent
C. the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint agent
D. the Azure Monitor Agent
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Microsoft Defender for Servers Plan 1 integrates with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint for endpoint protection. For AWS-hosted Windows Server VMs, deploying the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) agent provides consistent cross-cloud workload protection while minimizing the number of agents. Azure Connected Machine (Arc), Log Analytics agent, and Azure Monitor Agent are not required solely to satisfy the stated requirements and would increase the agent footprint.
Question 44
You have a Microsoft 365 tenant.
You have an Azure subscription that contains Azure App Service web apps. The apps have the following characteristics:
• The apps use third-party and open-source components.
• The apps were developed by using C#, Python, and Java.
• The app deployment process is managed by using Azure DevOps.
• The source code for the apps is stored in GitHub Enterprise Cloud repositories and protected by using GitHub Advanced Security.
You need to reduce the risk of supply chain attacks during the application lifecycle.
What should you implement?
A. secret scanning
B. Dependabot alerts
C. app governance in Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps
D. NuGet Audit
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Dependabot alerts identify vulnerable open-source dependencies and integrate with GitHub Advanced Security to recommend and create fixes, helping reduce software supply chain attack risk throughout the application lifecycle. Secret scanning detects exposed secrets, NuGet Audit only covers .NET NuGet packages, and Defender for Cloud Apps app governance is for SaaS app governance rather than software supply chain security.
Question 45

You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that contains a Microsoft SharePoint Online site named Site1.
You have a Conditional Access policy named Policy1 that only allows workload identities from trusted locations to access SharePoint Online.
You plan to move all business-sensitive information to Site1.
You need to ensure that CAPolicy1 applies to Site1 only.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: 1. For the Microsoft Entra tenant, create an authentication context.
2. Modify the target resources of Policy1.
3. Configure a sensitivity label for Site1.
Explanation: Authentication context is used to scope Conditional Access to specific SharePoint resources. Update the CA policy to target that authentication context, then apply the authentication context to Site1 via a sensitivity label.
Question 46
You have a Microsoft Entra tenant named contoso.onmicrosoft.com and an Azure subscription named Sub1.
You need to implement Microsoft Entra Verified ID by using Quick Verified ID setup.
What should you create first?
A. a security principal in contoso.onmicrosoft.com
B. a custom domain in contoso.onmicrosoft.com
C. a user-assigned managed identity in Sub1
D. an Azure key vault in Sub1
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Quick Verified ID setup requires a verified custom domain in the Microsoft Entra tenant before the service can be configured. The setup uses the verified domain as part of the Verified ID authority. A managed identity, Key Vault, or separate security principal are not the first prerequisite for the Quick setup.
Question 47
You have an Azure subscription that is linked to a Microsoft Entra tenant.
You plan deploy an enterprise application named App1. App1 requires LDAP to look up attributes related to Microsoft Entra users.
You need to recommend a solution to support the LDAP requirement.
What should you recommend?
A. Configure a Conditional Access policy that has a trusted network location.
B. Deploy Microsoft Entra Private Access.
C. Deploy Microsoft Entra Domain Services.
D. Implement pass-through authentication.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Microsoft Entra Domain Services provides managed domain services including LDAP/LDAPS access backed by Microsoft Entra identities, enabling applications that require LDAP to query user attributes without deploying traditional domain controllers. Conditional Access, Private Access, and pass-through authentication do not provide LDAP directory services.
Question 48

You have a Microsoft Entra tenant named contoso.com that syncs with an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain named corp.contoso.com The domain contains 100 devices that have the following configurations:
• Hybrid joined
• Enrolled in Microsoft Intune
• Disabled built-in local administrator account
• Contain a local user account named User1 that is a member of the local administrators group
You need to recommend a solution that meets the following requirements:
• Ensures that the Directory Services Restore Mode (DSRM) credentials of each domain controller are backed up to the AD DS database
• Ensures that the password of User1 changes automatically every 60 days
• Ensures that the credentials of User1 are stored in an encrypted store
• Prevents the User1 password from being changed manually
• Whenever possible, stores all credentials in contoso.com
• Minimizes administrative effort
