Authentic Microsoft Certification Exam SC-200 Questions Answers

For Linux alert simulation in Defender for Cloud, you first copy /bin/echo to a test file named asc_alerttest_662jfi039n , then execute it with the parameters testing eicar pipe . This sequence generates a benign test alert that validates the Defender for Cloud pipeline. The options using ./alerttest are incorrect file names and won’t trigger the simulation. QUESTION NO: 8

You create an Azure subscription named sub1.

In sub1, you create a Log Analytics workspace named workspace1.

You enable Azure Security Center and configure Security Center to use workspace1.

You need to ensure that Security Center processes events from the Azure virtual machines that report to workspace1.

What should you do?

A. In workspace1, install a solution.

B. In sub1, register a provider.

C. From Security Center, create a Workflow automation.

D. In workspace1, create a workb ook.

Answer: A

When configuring Microsoft Defender for Cloud (formerly Azure Security Center) to use a specific Log Analytics workspace, you must ensure the Security solution is installed in that workspace so that security events from VMs reporting to the workspace are processed by Defender for Cloud. Registering a provider, creating workflow automations, or creating a workbook do not enable data processing for recommendations/alerts; installing the solution (now surfaced as the Defender for Cloud agent/solution enablement) does.

When Azure Defender for Key Vault (now part of Microsoft Defender for Cloud ) raises an alert about suspicious access attempts from multiple unknown IP addresses, the immediate mitigation step—before deeper investigation—is to restrict network access to the Key Vault to reduce exposure.

The Azure Key Vault firewall allows you to restrict access by:

Allowing access only from trusted IP addresses , VNets , or private endpoints .

Blocking all other traffic by enabling the firewall and disabling “Allow access from all networks.”

Microsoft’s official recommendation states:

“To reduce the likelihood of secrets being compromised while you investigate an alert, enable the Key Vault fire wall and restrict access to trusted networks or specific virtual networks.”

“Firewall and virtual network configuration can be applied immediately without affecting existing permissions or access policies.”

This step:

Minimizes exposure to malicious IP add resses.

Is quick to implement (through the Azure Portal or CLI).

Has minimal impact on legitimate users if you properly whitelist trusted networks or VNets.

Other options:

A (Modify access control settings) or D (Modify access policy) would affect permissi ons and could disrupt legitimate users or service principals.

C (Create an application security group) applies to network interfaces, not directly to Key Vault.

✅ Answer: B. Enable the Key Vault firewall
