SC-200 PDF — 478 Questions

You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that uses Microsoft Defender XDR.
You discover that when Microsoft Defender for Endpoint generates alerts for a commonly used executable file, it causes alert fatigue.
You need to tune the alerts.
Which two actions can an alert tuning rule perform for the alerts? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  1. delete
  2. hide
  3. resolve
  4. merge
  5. assign

Answer(s): B,C



Note: This section contains one or more sets of questions with the same scenario and problem. Each question presents a unique solution to the problem. You must determine whether the solution meets the stated goals. More than one solution in the set might solve the problem. It is also possible that none of the solutions in the set solve the problem.
After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return. As a result, these questions do not appear on the Review Screen.
You have a Microsoft 365 subscription.
You have 1,000 Windows devices that have a third-party antivirus product installed and Microsoft Defender Antivirus in passive mode.
All Windows devices are onboarded to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
You need to ensure that the devices are protected from malicious artifacts that were undetected by the third-party antivirus product.
Solution: You configure endpoint detection and response (EDR) in block mode.
Does this meet the goal?

  1. Yes
  2. No

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Correct: * You configure endpoint detection and response (EDR) in block mode.
Incorrect: * You configure Controlled folder access. * You enable automated investigation and response (AIR). * You enable Live Response.
Note: * You configure endpoint detection and response (EDR) in block mode. Enabling EDR in block mode allows Microsoft Defender to provide additional protection by blocking and remediating malicious artifacts that might bypass the third-party antivirus. EDR in block mode works even when Defender Antivirus is in passive mode, providing an effective safety net against threats undetected by the primary antivirus.
Incorrect: * You configure Controlled folder access. Controlled Folder Access is a feature of Microsoft Defender that protects specified folders from unauthorized changes, such as those by ransomware.
While it is beneficial for protecting important files, it does not focus on identifying or blocking malicious artifacts undetected by the primary antivirus. This feature does not enhance the detection or blocking capabilities against a wide range of threats that might bypass the third-party antivirus.
* You enable automated investigation and response (AIR). Automated Investigation and Response automates the investigation and remediation of alerts, helping security teams respond faster to potential threats. However, AIR primarily addresses post-alert actions rather than actively blocking threats at the endpoint level. It relies on alerts to trigger, so it does not fill the gap for additional real-time threat blocking, unlike EDR in block mode, which proactively blocks and remediates threats that may bypass the primary antivirus.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)
You need to meet the Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps requirements.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: Low Fabrikam identifies the following Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps requirements: Reduce the amount of impossible travel alerts that are false positives. Ensure that impossible travel alert policies are based on the previous activities of each user.
The sensitivity slider allows you to affect the algorithm and define how strict the detection logic is. The higher the sensitivity level, fewer activities will be suppressed as part of the detection logic. In this way, you can adapt the detection according to your coverage needs and your SNR targets.
Note: In the Impossible Travel policy, you can set the sensitivity slider to determine the level of anomalous behavior needed before an alert is triggered. For example, if you set it to low or medium, it will suppress Impossible Travel alerts from a user's common locations, and if you set it to high, it will surface such alerts. You can choose from the following sensitivity levels:
Low: System, tenant, and user suppressions
Medium: System and user suppressions
High: Only system suppressions
Box 2: IP address range Anomalies are detected by scanning user activity. The risk is evaluated by looking at over 30 different risk indicators, grouped into risk factors, as follows:
Risky IP address Login failures Admin activity Inactive accounts Location Impossible travel Device and user agent Activity rate
Incorrect: In addition to native Defender for Cloud Apps alerts, you'll also get the following detection alerts based on information received from Azure Active Directory (AD) Identity Protection: * Leaked credentials Triggered when a user's valid credentials have been leaked.
* Risky sign-in: Combines a number of Azure AD Identity Protection sign-in detections into a single detection.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)
You need to assign role-based access control (RBAC) roles to Group1 and Group2 to meet the Microsoft Defender for Cloud requirements and the business requirements.
Which role should you assign to each group? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: Security Assessment Contributor Ensure that the members of Group1 can assign regulatory compliance policy initiatives at the Azure subscription level.
Security Assessment Contributor Let’s you push assessments to Microsoft Defender for Cloud
Action: Microsoft.Security/assessments/write Create or update security assessments on your subscription
Box 2: Security Admin Ensure that the members of Group2 can modify security policies.
Security Admin View and update permissions for Microsoft Defender for Cloud. Same permissions as the Security Reader role and can also update the security policy and dismiss alerts and recommendations.
Incorrect: * Contributor Grants full access to manage all resources, but does not allow you to assign roles in Azure RBAC, manage assignments in Azure Blueprints, or share image galleries.
* Owner Grants full access to manage all resources, including the ability to assign roles in Azure RBAC.
