Question 16

Question#16Topic1

A customer has a hybrid cloud infrastructure that contains a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription and an Azure subscription.
All on-premises servers in the perimeter network are prevented from connecting directly to the internet.
The customer recently recovered from a ransomware attack.
The customer plans to deploy Microsoft Sentinel.
You need to recommend solutions to meet the following requirements:
✑ Ensure that the security operations team can access the security logs and the operation logs.
✑ Ensure that the IT operations team can access only the operations logs, including the event logs of the servers in the perimeter network.
Which two solutions should you include in the recommendation? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  1. A. a custom collector that uses the Log Analytics agent
  2. B. the Azure Monitor agent
  3. C. resource-based role-based access control (RBAC)
  4. D. Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) Conditional Access policies
Show answer and explanation

Answer

BC

Explanation

Explanation:
A: You can collect data in custom log formats to Microsoft Sentinel with the Log Analytics agent.
Note: You can use the Log Analytics agent to collect data in text files of nonstandard formats from both Windows and Linux computers. Once collected, you can either parse the data into individual fields in your queries or extract the data during collection to individual fields.
You can connect your data sources to Microsoft Sentinel using custom log formats.
C: Microsoft Sentinel uses Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC) to provide built-in roles that can be assigned to users, groups, and services in Azure.
Use Azure RBAC to create and assign roles within your security operations team to grant appropriate access to Microsoft Sentinel. The different roles give you fine-grained control over what Microsoft Sentinel users can see and do. Azure roles can be assigned in the Microsoft Sentinel workspace directly (see note below), or in a subscription or resource group that the workspace belongs to, which Microsoft Sentinel inherits.

Question 17

Question#17Topic1

Your company is developing a serverless application in Azure that will have the architecture shown in the following exhibit.
Question illustration
You need to recommend a solution to isolate the compute components on an Azure virtual network.
What should you include in the recommendation?

  1. A. Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) enterprise applications
  2. B. an Azure App Service Environment (ASE)
  3. C. Azure service endpoints
  4. D. an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) application proxy
Show answer and explanation

Answer

B

Explanation

Explanation:
The Azure App Service Environment v2 is an Azure App Service feature that provides a fully isolated and dedicated environment for securely running App Service apps at high scale. This capability can host your:

Windows web apps -

Linux web apps -

Docker containers -

Mobile apps -

Functions -
App Service environments (ASEs) are appropriate for application workloads that require:
Very high scale.
Isolation and secure network access.
High memory utilization.
Customers can create multiple ASEs within a single Azure region or across multiple Azure regions. This flexibility makes ASEs ideal for horizontally scaling stateless application tiers in support of high requests per second (RPS) workloads.

Answer

CAB

Explanation

Explanation:
1. Specialized security
2. Enterprise security
3. Privileged security
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/security/privileged-access-workstations/privileged-access-security-levels#specialized
Specialized security provides increased security controls for roles with an elevated business impact (if compromised by an attacker or malicious insider).
Specialized roles typically include:
- Developers of business critical systems.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/security/privileged-access-workstations/privileged-access-security-levels#enterprise
Enterprise security is suitable for all enterprise users and productivity scenarios. In the progression of the rapid modernization plan, enterprise also serves as the starting point for specialized and privileged access as they progressively build on the security controls in enterprise security.
