AZ-500 Microsoft Azure Security Technologies Exam Questions and Answers

AZ-500 Question 141

Question

HOTSPOT –
You have an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant named contoso.com that contains the users shown in the following table.

Name Member of Mobile phone Multi-factor authentication (MFA) status
User1 Group1 1235557890 Disabled
User2 Group1, Group2 None Enabled
User3 Group1 1235557891 Required

You create and enforce an Azure AD Identity Protection user risk policy that has the following settings:

  • Assignment: Include Group1, Exclude Group2
  • Conditions: Sign-in risk of Medium and above
  • Access: Allow access, Require password change

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

  • If User1 signs in from an unfamiliar location, he must change his password.
  • If User2 signs in from anonymous IP address, she must change her password.
  • If User3 signs in from a computer containing malware that is communicating with known bot servers, he must change his password.

Answer

  • If User1 signs in from an unfamiliar location, he must change his password: Yes
  • If User2 signs in from anonymous IP address, she must change her password: Yes
  • If User3 signs in from a computer containing malware that is communicating with known bot servers, he must change his password: No

Explanation

Box 1: Yes. User1 is member of Group1. Sign in from unfamiliar location is risk level Medium.
Box 2: Yes. User2 is member of Group1. Sign in from anonymous IP address is risk level Medium.
Box 3: No. Sign-ins from IP addresses with suspicious activity is low.

Azure AD Identity protection can detect six types of suspicious sign-in activities:

  • Users with leaked credentials
  • Sign-ins from anonymous IP addresses
  • Impossible travel to atypical locations
  • Sign-ins from infected devices
  • Sign-ins from IP addresses with suspicious activity
  • Sign-ins from unfamiliar locations

These six types of events are categorized in to 3 levels of risks’ High, Medium & Low:

Sign-in Activity Risk Level
Users with leaked credentials High
Sign-ins from anonymous IP addresses Medium
Impossible travel to a typical location Medium
Sign-ins from infected devices Medium
Sign-ins from IP addresses with suspicious activity Low
Sign-ins from unfamiliar locations Medium

AZ-500 Question 143

Question

Your network contains an on-premises Active Directory domain named corp.contoso.com.
You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that is associated to an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant named contoso.com.
You sync all on-premises identities to Azure AD.
You need to prevent users who have a givenName attribute that starts with TEST from being synced to Azure AD. The solution must minimize administrative effort.
What should you use?

A. Synchronization Rules Editor
B. Web Service Configuration Tool
C. the Azure AD Connect wizard
D. Active Directory Users and Computers

Answer

A. Synchronization Rules Editor

Explanation

Use the Synchronization Rules Editor and write attribute-based filtering rule.

Reference

AZ-500 Question 144

Question

Your network contains an Active Directory forest named contoso.com. The forest contains a single domain.
You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that is associated to an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant named contoso.com.
You plan to deploy Azure AD Connect and to integrate Active Directory and the Azure AD tenant.
You need to recommend an integration solution that meets the following requirements:

  • Ensures that password policies and user logon restrictions apply to user accounts that are synced to the tenant
  • Minimizes the number of servers required for the solution.

Which authentication method should you include in the recommendation?

A. federated identity with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)
B. password hash synchronization with seamless single sign-on (SSO)
C. pass-through authentication with seamless single sign-on (SSO)

Answer

B. password hash synchronization with seamless single sign-on (SSO)

Explanation

Password hash synchronization requires the least effort regarding deployment, maintenance, and infrastructure. This level of effort typically applies to organizations that only need their users to sign in to Office 365, SaaS apps, and other Azure AD-based resources. When turned on, password hash synchronization is part of the Azure AD Connect sync process and runs every two minutes.
Incorrect Answers:
A: A federated authentication system relies on an external trusted system to authenticate users. Some companies want to reuse their existing federated system investment with their Azure AD hybrid identity solution. The maintenance and management of the federated system falls outside the control of Azure AD. It’s up to the organization by using the federated system to make sure it’s deployed securely and can handle the authentication load.
C: For pass-through authentication, you need one or more (we recommend three) lightweight agents installed on existing servers. These agents must have access to your on-premises Active Directory Domain Services, including your on-premises AD domain controllers. They need outbound access to the Internet and access to your domain controllers. For this reason, it’s not supported to deploy the agents in a perimeter network.
Pass-through Authentication requires unconstrained network access to domain controllers. All network traffic is encrypted and limited to authentication requests.

Question

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.
After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.
You have a hybrid configuration of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
You have an Azure HDInsight cluster on a virtual network.
You plan to allow users to authenticate to the cluster by using their on-premises Active Directory credentials.
You need to configure the environment to support the planned authentication.
Solution: You create a site-to-site VPN between the virtual network and the on-premises network.
Does this meet the goal?

A. Yes
B. No

Answer

A. Yes

Explanation

You can connect HDInsight to your on-premises network by using Azure Virtual Networks and a VPN gateway.
Note: To allow HDInsight and resources in the joined network to communicate by name, you must perform the following actions:

  • Create Azure Virtual Network.
  • Create a custom DNS server in the Azure Virtual Network.
  • Configure the virtual network to use the custom DNS server instead of the default Azure Recursive Resolver.
  • Configure forwarding between the custom DNS server and your on-premises DNS server.

After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.
You have an Azure subscription named Sub1.
You have an Azure Storage account named sa1 in a resource group named RG1.
Users and applications access the blob service and the file service in sa1 by using several shared access signatures (SASs) and stored access policies.
You discover that unauthorized users accessed both the file service and the blob service.
You need to revoke all access to sa1.
Solution: You create a new stored access policy.
Does this meet the goal?

A. Yes
B. No

Answer

B. No

Explanation

Creating a new (additional) stored access policy with have no effect on the existing policy or the SAS’s linked to it.
To revoke a stored access policy, you can either delete it, or rename it by changing the signed identifier. Changing the signed identifier breaks the associations between any existing signatures and the stored access policy. Deleting or renaming the stored access policy immediately effects all of the shared access signatures associated with it.
