Exam AZ-500 topic 16 question 1 discussion

Congratulations on making it to the final page, all the best in your exam!

The answer which would make sense is C) but in the scenario they mentioned that ASC is Standard already? I think it is a typo and it should be 'free' which will then make answer c) more logical. Also note this is old way of MS ASC tiers (free, standard) which has now been changed to ASC Free, ASC AD ON

To support eh answer. While the Azure Security Center free tier offers some basic security features, customizing operating system security configurations is limited compared to the standard tier. However, you can still take some steps to enhance your OS security within the free tier: Available Options in Free Tier Review basic security recommendations provided by Azure Security Center for your VMs and other resources. Enable the built-in Azure policies related to OS security that are available in the free tier. Use Azure Policy to create and assign custom policies for auditing specific OS configurations across your Azure resources. Limitations It's important to note that the free tier has significant limitations: Advanced security features and customization options are not available. Threat detection capabilities are limited. Continuous security assessments are restricted Anaswer: C ( It seems a typo issue in this question )

One of the requirements is: "Microsoft Antimalware must be installed on the virtual machines in RG1." That would speak for A. Not B - Cloud App security has nothing to do with the requirements Not C- It is already in Standard tier, "upgrade to Standard tier" doesn't make sense Not D - There is no such thing as "Workspace configuration" in Defender for Cloud (formerly Security Center)

C. Upgrade the pricing tier of Security Center to Standard.

Assuming "Standard" is a typo... "Customize security requirements" can only mean custom security policies, which is available on Plan 2.

Since it is a standard tier, the answer is "D. Modify the Security Center workspace configuration."

Azure security Center already Standard tier, so answer is D. Link here: https://azure.microsoft.com/sv-se/blog/azure-security-center-adds-support-for-custom-security-assessments/

I would go for D. As Azure Security Center is already set to Standard Tier. You can also not Auto Provisioning from LAW, Since Auto Provisioning only install the monitoring agents, they cannot change security config

C. Upgrade the pricing tier of Security Center to Standard.

Anything eventually benefits MS will be the RIGHT choice.

Litware must be able to customize the operating system security configurations in Azure Security Center. What does this even mean? Modify the policy parameters in Azure policy? Select the security logging type?

There are two versions of the question. One says it's set to standard, making D the correct answer and one says it's set to free tier, which also makes C correct. I hope this clarifies the confusion

Another one bites the dust ;)

I think it is D. Although this is outdated becouse Azure Security Center doesn't exits any more: https://azure.microsoft.com/sv-se/blog/azure-security-center-adds-support-for-custom-security-assessments/

Standard Tier...? In the case it says: Azure Security Center is set to the Standard tier.

I've taken multiple Azure exams and it never fails...when one of the answers is to "upgrade" well then, the correct answer is "upgrade."
