Ensure that impossible travel alert policies are based on the previous activities of each user.
Reduce the amount of impossible travel alerts that are false positives.

Microsoft Defender for Identity Requirements

Minimize the administrative effort required to investigate the false positive alerts.

Microsoft Defender for Cloud Requirements

Fabrikam identifies the following Microsoft Defender for Cloud requirements:

-Ensure that the members of Group2 can modify security policies.
-Ensure that the members of Group1 can assign regulatory compliance policy initiatives at the Azure subscription level.
-Automate the deployment of the Azure Connected Machine agent for Azure Arc-enabled servers to the existing and future resources of Account1.
-Minimize the administrative effort required to investigate the false positive alerts.

Microsoft Sentinel Requirements

Fabrikam identifies the following Microsoft Sentinel requirements:

-Query for NXDOMAIN DNS requests from the last seven days by using built-in Advanced Security Information Model (ASIM) unifying parsers.
-From AWS EC2 instances, collect Windows Security event log entries that include local group membership changes.
-Identify anomalous activities of Azure AD users by using User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA).
-Evaluate the potential impact of compromised Azure AD user credentials by using UEBA.

-Ensure that the members of Group1 can manage analytics rules.
-Run hunting queries on Pool1 by using Jupyter notebooks.
-Ensure that the members of Group2 can manage incidents.
-Maximize the performance of data queries.
-Minimize the amount of collected data.

You need to minimize the effort required to investigate the Microsoft Defender for Identity false positive alerts. What should you review?

  1. the status update time
  2. the resolution method of the source computer
  3. the alert status
  4. the certainty of the source computer

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Scenario: Microsoft Defender for Identity Requirements: Minimize the administrative effort required to investigate the false positive alerts.
Defender for Identity raises a high volume of Suspected DCSync attack alerts that are false positives.
Note: Suspected DCSync attack (replication of directory services) (external ID 2006) Previous name: Malicious replication of directory services.
Description
Active Directory replication is the process by which changes that are made on one domain controller are synchronized with all other domain controllers. Given necessary permissions, attackers can initiate a replication request, allowing them to retrieve the data stored in Active Directory, including password hashes.
In this detection, an alert is triggered when a replication request is initiated from a computer that isn't a domain controller.
If the source computer is a domain controller, failed or low certainty resolution can prevent Defender for Identity from being able to confirm identification.
Check if the source computer is a domain controller? If the answer is yes, Close the alert as a B-TP activity.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Scenario:
Litware identifies the following business requirements:
All domain controllers must be protected by using Microsoft Defender for Identity.
DC1 is on on-premises server running Windows Server 2019. It is a domain controller. Deploy Microsoft Defender for Identity with Microsoft 365 Defender
Step 1: Provide a global administrator credentials to the litware.com Active Directory domain Prerequisites include:
Accounts
At least one Directory Service account with read access to all objects in the monitored domains.
Permissions
To create your Defender for Identity instance, you'll need an Azure AD tenant with at least one global/security administrator. Each Defender for Identity workspace supports a multiple Active Directory forest boundary and Forest Functional Level (FFL) of Windows 2003 and above.
You need to be a global administrator or security administrator on the tenant to access the Identity section on
the Microsoft 365 Defender portal and be able to create the workspace. Step 2: Create an instance of Microsoft Defender for Identity.
Step 3: Provide domain administrator credentials to the litware.com Active Directory domain. If there are only three steps required, skip this step.
Step 4: Install the sensor on DC1. Note on the four steps:
Step 1: log in to https://portal.atp.azure.com as a global admin Step 2: Create the instance
Step 3. Connect the instance to Active Directory Step 4. Download and install the sensor.
Incorrect:
Install the standalone sensor on DC1 We are in a domain.

Scenario:
Litware identifies the following business requirements:
All domain controllers must be protected by using Microsoft Defender for Identity.
DC1 is on on-premises server running Windows Server 2019. It is a domain controller. Deploy Microsoft Defender for Identity with Microsoft 365 Defender
Step 1: Provide a global administrator credentials to the litware.com Active Directory domain Prerequisites include:
Accounts
At least one Directory Service account with read access to all objects in the monitored domains.
Permissions
To create your Defender for Identity instance, you'll need an Azure AD tenant with at least one global/security administrator. Each Defender for Identity workspace supports a multiple Active Directory forest boundary and Forest Functional Level (FFL) of Windows 2003 and above.
You need to be a global administrator or security administrator on the tenant to access the Identity section on the Microsoft 365 Defender portal and be able to create the workspace.
Step 2: Create an instance of Microsoft Defender for Identity. Step 3: Install the sensor on DC1.
Note if four steps instead of three steps:
Step 1: log in to https://portal.atp.azure.com as a global admin Step 2: Create the instance
Step 3. Connect the instance to Active Directory Step 4. Download and install the sensor.
Incorrect:
* Install the standalone sensor on DC1 We are in a domain.
