Microsoft Implementing End-to-End Security Controls for Cloud and AI Workloads Sample Questions:
You create a new Microsoft Sentinel workspace named Workspace1.
Workspace1 ingests Azure Firewall logs that are used only occasionally during investigations.
You need to retain the logs for seven years at the lowest cost. The solution must ensure that investigators ran search the retained data when needed.
What should you do?
- A. Configure the table in Workspace1 that stores the logs to use the data lake tier.
- B. Increase the analytics retention period of Workspace1 to seven years.
- C. Configure the table in Workspace1 that stores the togs to use the analytics tier.
- D. Archive the logs to an Azure Storage account.
Correct Answer: A 🗳️
You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that contains an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster named cluster1 and an Azure container registry named ACR1 Sub1 has Microsoft Defender for Containers enabled, and runtime protection is active on cluster!
The developers at your company deploy pods that have elevated privileges, and the deployments are created in cluster1 You need to prevent pods with elevated privileges from being accepted by cluster!
What should you do?
- A. Configure runtime threat protection alerts for privileged container activity.
- B. Enable vulnerability assessment for images in ACR1.
- C. Create an Azure Policy for cluster1.
- D. Enable agentless discovery for Kubernetes in Defender for Containers.
Correct Answer: C 🗳️

You have a Microsoft Sentinel workspace
You need to collect Windows security events from 200 Azure virtual machines that run Windows Server. The solution must meet the following requirements:
*Use direct agent based data collection from each virtual machine.
*Use a supported agent for new virtual machine deployments
Which Microsoft Sentinel connector should you use?
- A. Syslog via AMA
- B. Azure Resource Graph
- C. Security Events via Legacy Agent
- D. Windows Forwarded Events
- E. Windows Security Events via AMA
Correct Answer: E 🗳️
Explanation: Only visible for VCEDumps members. You can sign-up / login (it's free).
You have an Azure virtual network that contains 100 virtual machines and an Azure Firewall instance named FW1.
All the traffic from the virtual machines is routed through FW1.
You need to ensure that FW1 allows access to only a URL of updates contoso.com and blocks all other outbound traffic.
What should you use?
- A. An inbound NAT rule
- B. A network rule
- C. An outbound NAT rule
- D. An application rule
Correct Answer: D 🗳️
Explanation: Only visible for VCEDumps members. You can sign-up / login (it's free).
You have a Microsoft Entra tenant that contains the users shown in the following table.
You use Microsoft Security Copilot.
From Microsoft Security Store, User1 attempts to deploy a partner built agent named Agent1 and reports that the Get agent option is unavailable.
You need to identify whether Agent1 can run in Security Copilot successfully. The solution must follow the principle of least privilege.
How should you complete the deployment? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
To complete approval for Agent1: Instruct User4 to approve Agent1; To complete the agent setup:
Create an app registration for Agent1
Security Store partner-built agents require organization-level approval before contributors can acquire and use them. User4 is the Security Copilot Owner, so User4 is the least-privilege approver among the listed accounts.
The agent also needs an app registration so the agent identity and permissions can be represented through Microsoft Entra. Global Administrator could approve many things, but using the Security Copilot Owner avoids unnecessary tenant-wide privilege for this operational approval. This answer also follows operational scalability. Microsoft security architecture favors policy-driven deployment, agentless assessment, managed identities, and Defender workload plans where possible. Those mechanisms reduce manual configuration while keeping enforcement tied to the resource type, which is why the selected choice is stronger than manual or after-the-fact alternatives. The result is a direct exam-style implementation choice: it changes the required security behavior without relying on unrelated monitoring, manual cleanup, or excessive privilege.
