At ValidExamDumps, we consistently monitor updates to the Microsoft SC-900 exam questions by Microsoft. Whenever our team identifies changes in the exam questions, objectives, focus areas or requirements, We immediately update our exam questions for both PDF and online practice exams. This commitment ensures our customers always have access to the most current and accurate questions. By preparing with these up to date and 100% exam domain coverage questions, our customers can successfully pass the Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals exam on their first attempt without needing additional materials or study guides.
Other certification materials providers often include outdated or removed questions by Microsoft in their SC-900 exam. These outdated questions lead to customers failing their Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals exam. In contrast, we ensure our questions bank includes only precise and up-to-date questions. Our main priority is your success in the Microsoft SC-900 exam, not profiting from selling obsolete exam questions in PDF or Online Practice Test.
What is an assessment in Compliance Manager?
Microsoft Purview Compliance Manager is a feature in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal that helps you manage your organization's compliance requirements with greater ease and convenience. Compliance Manager can help you throughout your compliance journey, from taking inventory of your data protection risks to managing the complexities of implementing controls, staying current with regulations and certifications, and reporting to auditors.
Watch the video below to learn how Compliance Manager can help simplify how your organization manages compliance:
Compliance Manager helps simplify compliance and reduce risk by providing:
Pre-built assessments for common industry and regional standards and regulations, or custom assessments to meet your unique compliance needs (available assessments depend on your licensing agreement; learn more).
Workflow capabilities to help you efficiently complete your risk assessments through a single tool.
Detailed step-by-step guidance on suggested improvement actions to help you comply with the standards and regulations that are most relevant for your organization. For actions that are managed by Microsoft, you'll see implementation details and audit results.
A risk-based compliance score to help you understand your compliance posture by measuring your progress in completing improvement actions.
You have an Azure subscription.
You need to implement approval-based, tiProme-bound role activation.
What should you use?
In Microsoft's Security, Compliance, and Identity guidance, Azure AD Privileged Identity Management (PIM) is the service used to manage, control, and monitor access to important resources in Azure and Microsoft 365. The documentation explains that PIM enables ''just-in-time'' and ''time-bound'' activation of privileged roles, requiring users to elevate only when needed and for a limited duration. PIM policies can require approval before a role is activated, enforce multifactor authentication, capture business justification, send notifications, and maintain detailed auditing and access review records. These controls are designed to reduce the risk associated with standing administrative privileges by ensuring that elevation is temporary, approved, and tracked.
By contrast, Windows Hello for Business provides strong, device-bound authentication; Azure AD Identity Protection focuses on detecting and remediating risky sign-ins and users; and Azure AD Access Reviews periodically reattest existing assignments but do not provide the on-demand, approval-based, time-limited activation of roles. Therefore, when the requirement is approval-based, time-bound role activation, Microsoft's prescribed capability is Azure AD PIM, which delivers just-in-time elevation with approvers, duration limits, and audit/logging to support least privilege and Zero Trust operational practices.
Which two types of resources can be protected by using Azure Firewall? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Azure Firewall is a managed, cloud-based network security service designed to secure traffic inside and across Azure Virtual Networks. Microsoft describes Azure Firewall as a stateful firewall that ''protects Azure Virtual Network resources'' by enforcing network and application rules, central logging, and threat intelligence--based filtering. Because it is deployed into a VNet/subnet (often as the hub in a hub-and-spoke), it directly governs East/West and North/South flows to workloads such as Azure virtual machines and platform services reachable through the VNet, using DNAT/SNAT and rule collections. Microsoft guidance highlights capabilities to ''centrally create, enforce, and log application and network connectivity policies across subscriptions and virtual networks,'' and to filter traffic for peered VNets, branch connections (VPN/ExpressRoute), and internet traffic. These capabilities explicitly map to protecting Azure virtual networks and the VMs and subnets inside them. In contrast, Azure AD users, Exchange Online inboxes, and SharePoint Online sites are SaaS/identity resources protected by Microsoft Entra controls, Exchange/SharePoint security, and Purview/Defender for Office 365---not by a VNet firewall. Therefore, the Azure Firewall--protectable resource types among the options are Azure virtual machines and Azure virtual networks.
What are two capabilities of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint? Each correct selection presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint includes Automated investigation and remediation (AIR) and Attack surface reduction (ASR) as core capabilities. Microsoft's guidance states that AIR ''uses inspection algorithms and playbooks to examine alerts, determine if they are malicious, and then take remediation actions such as stopping processes, quarantining files, and rolling back changes.'' It is designed to ''reduce the volume of alerts that require analyst attention and to remediate threats at machine speed across your estate,'' helping security teams contain and fix issues without manual intervention.
Defender for Endpoint also provides attack surface reduction features to proactively limit exposure. The Microsoft learn materials describe that ASR ''helps organizations minimize areas that attackers can exploit,'' and includes ''attack surface reduction rules, network protection, web protection, application control (Windows Defender Application Control), and controlled folder access.'' These controls ''block or constrain risky behaviors and common attacker techniques,'' thereby preventing many initial compromise and lateral-movement attempts before they generate incidents.
By contrast, transport encryption is a general platform/security baseline capability rather than a specific Defender for Endpoint feature, and shadow IT detection is addressed through Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps (App discovery), which can use Defender for Endpoint network signals but is not itself a native MDE capability. Therefore, the two correct capabilities of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint are Automated investigation and remediation and Attack surface reduction.
What can you use to deploy Azure resources across multiple subscriptions in a consistent manner?
Microsoft guidance describes Azure Blueprints as the native way to stamp out governed environments consistently across tenants and subscriptions. Microsoft states: ''Azure Blueprints enables cloud architects and central information technology groups to define a repeatable set of Azure resources that implements and adheres to an organization's standards, patterns, and requirements.'' It further explains that ''Blueprints make it possible to package artifacts, such as role assignments, policy assignments, ARM templates, and resource groups, into a single blueprint definition that can be assigned to your subscriptions.'' This is precisely what's required when you need to deploy Azure resources across multiple subscriptions in a consistent manner---you define a blueprint (with policies, RBAC, templates, and resource groups) and assign it to one or more subscriptions to get uniform, compliant deployments. While services like Microsoft Defender for Cloud and Azure Policy help assess and enforce security and compliance, Blueprints orchestrate multi-artifact deployment and governance at scale from day one of an environment's lifecycle, ensuring standardization and repeatability across subscriptions.
