Show Answer
Correct Answer: ActionType has "ZAP" AccountUpn
Explanation:
ZAP (Zero-hour Auto Purge) events with ActionResult == "Error" indicate emails detected post-delivery but not successfully removed. Joining RecipientEmailAddress to IdentityLogonEvents.AccountUpn correlates the email recipient with their sign-in activity.

Question 71

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that contains two groups named Group1 and Group2 and uses Microsoft Copilot for Security. You need to configure Copilot for Security role assignments to meet the following requirements: • Ensure that members of Group1 can run prompts and respond to Microsoft Defender XDR security incidents. • Ensure that members of Group2 can run prompts. • Follow the principle of least privilege. You remove Everyone from the Copilot Contributor role. Which two actions should you perform next? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

A. Assign the Security Operator role to Group1.
B. Assign the Copilot Owner role to Group2.
C. Assign the Copilot Owner role to Group1
D. Assign the Security Operator role to Group2.
E. Assign the Copilot Contributor role to Group2.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A, E
Explanation:
Group1 must both run Copilot prompts and respond to Microsoft Defender XDR incidents. The Security Operator role provides the required Defender XDR incident response permissions while following least privilege. Group2 only needs to run prompts, which is satisfied by assigning the Copilot Contributor role. Copilot Owner would grant excessive permissions, and assigning Security Operator to Group2 is unnecessary.

Question 72

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that uses Microsoft Copilot for Security. Copilot for Security has the default settings configured. You need to ensure that a user named User can use Copilot for Security to perform the following tasks: • Upload files. • View the usage dashboard. • Share promptbooks with all users. The solution must follow the principle of least privilege Which role should you assign to User?

A. Copilot owner
B. Cloud Application Administrator
C. Security Administrator
D. Copilot Contributor
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
To meet all requirements with least privilege, the role must allow uploading files, viewing the usage dashboard, and sharing promptbooks with all users. In Copilot for Security, only the Copilot Owner role includes permission to view the usage dashboard. Copilot Contributor can upload files and share promptbooks, but cannot view the usage dashboard. Therefore, Copilot Owner is the minimum role that satisfies all listed tasks.

Question 73

HOTSPOT - You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that uses Microsoft Exchange Online. You identify the suspicious emails shown in the following table. In Microsoft Purview, you create the content searches shown in the following table. For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Show Answer
Correct Answer: Search1: Yes Search2: No Search3: Yes
Explanation:
Search1 matches Email1 because it is from [email protected] and has a DOCX attachment. Search2 excludes Email2 because '-subjecttitle=benefits' filters out messages whose subject contains 'benefits'. Search3 matches Email3 because it is from [email protected] and the subject contains 'won'.

Question 74

HOTSPOT - You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that contains a Windows device named Device1. Device1 is onboarded to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. You initiate a live response session on Device1. You need to execute a long running script. The solution must ensure that you can run additional commands during the session while the script is running. How should you complete the live response command? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Illustration for SC-200 question 74
Show Answer
Correct Answer: run script1.ps1 &
Explanation:
In Microsoft Defender for Endpoint live response, the run command executes a script from the live response library. Appending & runs the script in the background, allowing additional commands to be issued while it continues to run.

Question 75

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that uses Microsoft Defender XDR. You are investigating an incident. You need to review the incident tasks that were performed. What can you use on the Incident page?

A. Tasks only
B. Tasks and Activity log only
C. Tasks and Alert timeline only
D. Tasks, Activity log, and Alert timeline
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
On the Microsoft Defender XDR Incident page, investigators can review work performed using multiple sections. **Tasks** shows investigation and remediation tasks, **Activity log** records actions and changes made on the incident, and the **Alert timeline** provides a chronological view of alerts and related actions. Together, these three provide full visibility into what tasks were performed during the incident.

Question 76

You have 1,000 on-premises Windows 11 Pro devices that are onboarded to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that uses Microsoft Defender XDR. You identify that an attacker performed the following actions on a device: • Modified the filesystem path of a registry-based antivirus exclusion • Downloaded a malicious file to the file system path You initiate a live response session on the device. You need to undo the registry change. Which command should you run?

A. remediate
B. registry
C. scan
D. analyze
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
In Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Live Response, the **registry** command is used to view, add, modify, or delete registry keys and values. Since the attacker changed a registry-based antivirus exclusion, undoing that change requires directly editing or removing the registry entry, which is done with the **registry** command. The **remediate**, **scan**, and **analyze** commands do not restore or modify registry settings.

Question 77

You have an Azure subscription that contains a Microsoft Sentinel workspace named WS1. WS1 has the Azure Activity connector and the Microsoft Entra ID connector configured. You need to investigate which accounts have the most alerts and any corresponding incident information for each alert. The solution must minimize administrative effort. What should you do first in WS1?

A. Use User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) to detect anomalies.
B. Enable User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA).
C. From Content hub, install the Microsoft Purview insider risk management solution.
D. From Content hub, install Cloud Identity Threat Protection Essentials.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
To investigate which accounts generate the most alerts and see related incident details with minimal administrative effort, Microsoft Sentinel’s built-in User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) capability should be enabled first. UEBA enriches existing data sources (such as Azure Activity and Microsoft Entra ID) and correlates alerts and incidents around users and entities. Option A assumes UEBA is already enabled, while options C and D involve additional solutions that are not required for this goal and add unnecessary setup effort.

Question 78

You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that contains a user named User1 and two Windows devices named Device1 and Device2. Device1 and Device2 are onboarded to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. The following events occur. • User1 signs in to Device1. • Automatic attack disruption in Microsoft Defender XDR responds to an attack on Device1 and contains User1. • User1 attempts to connect to Device2. Which protocols will Device2 block when User1 attempts to connect to Device2?

A. RDP only
B. RPC only
C. SMB only
D. RDP and RPC only
E. SMB and RPC only
F. RDP, RPC, and SMB
Show Answer
Correct Answer: F
Explanation:
When Automatic Attack Disruption contains a user, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint enforces user containment across all onboarded devices. This blocks lateral movement by denying network logon–related protocols. Specifically, inbound connections associated with SMB, RPC, and RDP from the contained user are blocked, and any existing RDP sessions are terminated. Therefore, Device2 will block RDP, RPC, and SMB when User1 attempts to connect.

Question 79

You have a Microsoft 365 subscription. You have the following KQL query. You need to ensure that you can create a Microsoft Defender XDR custom detection rule by using the query. What should you add to the query?

A. | summarize (Timestamp, ReportId)=arg_max(Timestamp, ReportId), count() by DeviceId
B. | summarize (ReportId)=make_set(ReportId), count() by DeviceId
C. | summarize (Timestamp, DeviceName)=arg_min(Timestamp, DeviceName), count() by DeviceId
D. | summarize (Timestamp)=range(Timestamp), count() by DeviceId
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Microsoft Defender XDR custom detection rules require the query to return specific schema fields, including a single representative Timestamp and ReportId per entity. Using `summarize (Timestamp, ReportId)=arg_max(Timestamp, ReportId) by DeviceId` ensures one latest event per device while preserving required fields, making the query valid for a custom detection rule.
