QUESTION: 1 Exam Topic: Design a Zero Trust strategy and architecture

You need to recommend a strategy for securing the litware.com forest. The solution must meet the identity requirements.
What should you include in the recommendation? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.

See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Box 1: Microsoft defender for cloud
Scenario: Prevent AD DS user accounts from being locked out by brute force attacks that target Azure AD user accounts.

When Microsoft Defender for Cloud detects a Brute-force attack, it triggers an alert to bring you awareness that a brute force attack took place. The automation uses this alert as a trigger to block the traffic of the IP by creating a security rule in the NSG attached to the VM to deny inbound traffic from the IP addresses attached to the alert. In the alerts of this type, you can find the attacking IP address appearing in the 'entities' field of the alert.

Box 2: An account lockout policy in AD DS
Scenario:
Detect brute force attacks that directly target AD DS user accounts.

Smart lockout helps lock out bad actors that try to guess your users' passwords or use brute-force methods to get in. Smart lockout can recognize sign-ins that come from valid users and treat them differently than ones of attackers and other unknown sources. Attackers get locked out, while your users continue to access their accounts and be productive.

Verify on-premises account lockout policy
To verify your on-premises AD DS account lockout policy, complete the following steps from a domain-joined system with administrator privileges:

Open the Group Policy Management tool.
Edit the group policy that includes your organization's account lockout policy, such as, the Default Domain Policy.
Browse to Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Account Policies > Account Lockout Policy.
Verify your Account lockout threshold and Reset account lockout counter after values.

QUESTION: 2 Exam Topic: Design a Zero Trust strategy and architecture

You need to recommend a SIEM and SOAR strategy that meets the hybrid requirements, the Microsoft Sentinel requirements, and the regulatory compliance requirements.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.

See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Box 1: Azure tenant
Microsoft Sentinel multiple workspace architecture
There are cases where a single SOC (Security Operations Center) needs to centrally manage and monitor multiple Microsoft Sentinel workspaces, potentially across Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenants.

An MSSP Microsoft Sentinel Service.
A global SOC serving multiple subsidiaries, each having its own local SOC.
A SOC monitoring multiple Azure AD tenants within an organization.

To address these cases, Microsoft Sentinel offers multiple-workspace capabilities that enable central monitoring, configuration, and management, providing a single pane of glass across everything covered by the SOC. This diagram shows an example architecture for such use cases.

This model offers significant advantages over a fully centralized model in which all data is copied to a single workspace.

Scenario:
Requirements. Microsoft Sentinel Requirements

Litware plans to leverage the security information and event management (SIEM) and security orchestration automated response (SOAR) capabilities of Microsoft Sentinel. The company wants to centralize Security Operations Center (SOC) by using Microsoft Sentinel.

Hybrid Requirements
Litware identifies the following hybrid cloud requirements:
Provide centralized, cross-tenant subscription management without the overhead of maintaining guest accounts.

Box 2: Azure Lighthouse subscription onboarding process
You can use Azure Lighthouse to extend all cross-workspace activities across tenant boundaries, allowing users in your managing tenant to work on Microsoft Sentinel workspaces across all tenants.

Azure Lighthouse enables you to see and manage Azure resources from different tenancies, in the one place, with the power of delegated administration. That tenancy may be a customer (for example, if you're a managed services provider with a support contract arrangement in place), or a separate Azure environment for legal or financial reasons (like franchisee groups or Enterprises with large brand groups).

Incorrect:
* not Azure AD B2B
Azure AD B2B uses guest account, which goes against the requirements in this scenario,

Note: Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) B2B collaboration is a feature within External Identities that lets you invite guest users to collaborate with your organization.

You need to recommend a multi-tenant and hybrid security solution that meets to the business requirements and the hybrid requirements.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.

See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Box 1: Azure AD B2C
Scenario: Provide centralized, cross-tenant subscription management without the overhead of maintaining guest accounts.

Azure AD B2C
Azure Active Directory B2C provides business-to-customer identity as a service. Your customers use their preferred social, enterprise, or local account identities to get single sign-on access to your applications and APIs.

By serving as the central authentication authority for your web applications, mobile apps, and APIs, Azure AD B2C enables you to build a single sign-on (SSO) solution for them all. Centralize the collection of user profile and preference information, and capture detailed analytics about sign-in behavior and sign-up conversion.

Note: Azure AD B2C is a customer identity access management (CIAM) solution capable of supporting millions of users and billions of authentications per day. It takes care of the scaling and safety of the authentication platform, monitoring, and automatically handling threats like denial-of-service, password spray, or brute force attacks.

Incorrect:
Azure Lighthouse
Cross-tenant management experiences
As a service provider, you can use Azure Lighthouse to manage resources for multiple customers from within your own Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant.

With Azure Lighthouse, the onboarding process specifies users within the service provider's tenant who will be able to work on delegated subscriptions and resource groups in the customer's tenant. These users can then sign in to the Azure portal using their own credentials. Within the Azure portal, they can manage resources belonging to all customers to which they have access.

Box 2: Azure Arc
Azure Arc simplifies governance and management by delivering a consistent multi-cloud and on-premises management platform.

Note:
Requirements. Hybrid Requirements

Litware identifies the following hybrid cloud requirements:
*Enable the management of on-premises resources from Azure, including the following:
Use Azure Policy for enforcement and compliance evaluation.
Provide change tracking and asset inventory.
Implement patch management.

Incorrect:
* Azure Stack Edge acts as a cloud storage gateway and enables eyes-off data transfers to Azure, while retaining local access to files.
* Microsoft Azure Stack Hub is a hybrid cloud platform that lets you deliver services from your datacenter.

You need to recommend a solution for securing the landing zones. The solution must meet the landing zone requirements and the business requirements.
What should you configure for each landing zone?

an ExpressRoute gateway
Microsoft Defender for Cloud
an Azure Private DNS zone
Azure DDoS Protection Standard

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

ExpressRoute provides direct connectivity to Azure cloud services and connecting Microsoft's global network. All transferred data is not encrypted, and do not go over the public Internet. VPN Gateway provides secured connectivity to Azure cloud services over public Internet.

Note:
Litware identifies the following landing zone requirements:

-Route all internet-bound traffic from landing zones through Azure Firewall in a dedicated Azure subscription.
-Provide a secure score scoped to the landing zone.
-Ensure that the Azure virtual machines in each landing zone communicate with Azure App Service web apps in the same zone over the Microsoft backbone network, rather than over public endpoints.
-Minimize the possibility of data exfiltration.
-Maximize network bandwidth.

Litware identifies the following business requirements:

-Minimize any additional on-premises infrastructure.
-Minimize the operational costs associated with administrative overhead.
