All the subscriptions are linked to a Microsoft Entra tenant named fabrikam.com that contains the identities shown in the following table.

The tenant contains the groups shown in the following table.

All devices are enrolled in Microsoft Intune.

Existing Environment. Sub1 Resources

Sub1 contains a resource group named RG1 that contains the resources shown in the following table.

SQLServer1 uses Microsoft SQL Server authentication.

Sub1 has an Azure Web Application Firewall (WAF) named WAF1 that has the following types of rule sets:

Bot Manager 1.1

Azure-managed Default Rule Set (DRS)

Sub1 has the following compliance standards assigned in Microsoft Defender for Cloud:

NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 4

Microsoft cloud security benchmark (MCSB)

System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2 Type 2

Existing Environment. Sub2 Resources

Sub2 contains a resource group named RG2.

Planned Changes and Requirements. Planned Changes

Fabrikam plans to implement the following changes:

Deploy the following key vaults to RG1:

AKV2 in the West Europe Azure region

AKV3 in the Central US Azure region

AKV4 in the East US Azure region

Deploy the following key vaults to RG2:

AKV5 in the East US region

Configure VM1 to read data from storage1.

Create function apps that have the following hosting plans:

Fa1: Flex Consumption hosting plan

Fa2: Consumption hosting plan

Fa3: Dedicated hosting plan

For WAF1, implement rate limiting rules based on the request location.

Enable the NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 compliance standard in Defender for Cloud.

Create a new storage account named storage2 that supports Azure Table storage.

Enforce multifactor authentication (MFA) when database administrators access SQLdb1.

Implement ExpressRoute circuits to the on-premises network as shown in the following table.

For RG1, create a new Privileged Identity Management (PIM) eligible role assignment that assigns the Contributor role to supported groups.

Planned Changes and Requirements. Technical Requirements

Fabrikam has the following technical requirements:

If VM1 is deleted, the permissions for VM1 must be removed automatically.

The AKS1 managed identity must only be able to pull images from Registry1.

The ID1 managed identity must be able to push images to and pull images from Registry1.

All the data in the storage accounts must be encrypted by using Fabrikam-managed keys.

All outbound traffic from the function apps to the on-premises network must use ExpressRoute circuits.

ExpressRoute connectivity between the on-premises network and the Azure environment must be encrypted by using Layer 2 or Layer 3 encryption.

You need to implement the planned change for storage2. The solution must meet the technical requirements for storage encryption.

What should you do?

Topic 1: Cloud and AI Security Engineer

You have an Azure SQL Database logical server named Server1 that contains multiple databases.

The databases contain legacy SQL authentication logins that must no longer be usable for sign-in but must NOT be removed from the databases.

You need to ensure that SQL authentication is denied for connections.

What should you do?

Topic 1: Cloud and AI Security Engineer

You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that contains an Azure Database for PostgreSQL instance. Sub1 has Microsoft Defender for Cloud enabled.

You need to configure Microsoft Defender for Databases to minimize costs.

Which Defender plan should you enable?

Topic 1: Cloud and AI Security Engineer

You have an Azure Storage account named storage1 that contains Azure Files shares.

You have an application named App1 that uses a system-assigned managed identity to access the shares.

Administrators access the shares by using storage account keys.

You need to ensure that App1 access the shares without using the storage account keys.

What should you do on storage1?

Topic 1: Cloud and AI Security Engineer

You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that contains a storage account named storage1. Sub1 has Microsoft Defender for Storage enabled. Defender for Storage has malware scanning enabled.

You need to configure a solution that automates the remediation of malware detected in storage1.

What should you include in the solution?
