1. You must create a report that shows all security events over the last 20 days for a Windows virtual machine (VM) in your Azure environment. What tools should you consider using?

Log Analytics and Power BI


2. You want to delete all managed disks that a virtual machine (VM) is not using. How would you find these?

In All Services, select Disks. In the following blade, look for resources that have nothing listed in the Owner column.


3. In Microsoft Defender for Cloud, which security policy applies secure settings?

Enforce


4. You want to be notified when there are at least 10 failed requests on your web application and when the number of total failed requests exceeds 5,000 in a 30-minute timeline. How would you configure the alert rules?

Add one alert rule on metrics for requests and an alert rule on events with a failed status.


5. Which would you use to programmatically consume metrics data?

Azure Monitor representational state transfer (REST) APIs


6. Which Azure tools can you use to establish a workload baseline for an application server running on a virtual machine?

Application Insights, metric charts


7. How can you create detailed visual reports for billing data?

Import the usage report into Power BI.


9. Which Azure feature automatically reviews your environment for cost savings based on resource utilization?

Azure Advisor


10. You must create an activity log alert rule with a JSON template. You must design the template using the Azure Resource Manager (ARM). How will you code the template's resource type?

      "type": "Microsoft.Insights/activityLogAlerts",


11. Which is a requirement to set up an Azure Security Center event dashboard?

Security Center’s standard tier plan


12. Which service should you route metric data to for App Services performance analytics?

Application Insights


13. Where can you easily view all resources that have diagnostics settings enabled for a subscription?

Azure Monitor


14. You have a Windows based web application that you are not monitoring for performance. Some users report that it behaves slowly intermittently. What tools can you use to validate baseline performance?

Application Insights


15. How can you view the cost of a previous day's log analytics in Azure Cost Management + Billing?

Select Cost analysis, yesterday's date, and add a filter with Log Analytics service.


16. Which query language does Azure Monitor use?

Kusto


17. What is a requirement for monitoring Azure virtual machines (VMs) from a third-party tool running outside of Azure?

Network security group (NSG) rules that allows the necessary traffic between the Virtual Network (VNet) and the monitoring tool


18. To adhere to geo-compliance requirements, you want to restrict the creation of resources to specific Azure regions only. Which built-in Azure policy would you use to enforce this?

Allowed locations


19. You must plot a chart with 48 data points consisting of the Network Out Total metric based on its Count aggregation over the span of one day. How will you set up Azure Monitor to collect each data point over a regular period of time?

Set the Time range to Last 24 hours and set Time granularity to 30 minutes.


1. Which section in the Azure Security Center displays security recommendations?

Resource security hygiene


3. Your company's finance department reports that there has been considerable variance in Azure billing over the course of the holiday season. How would you begin your investigation?

Compare existing baseline usage of compute instances with auto-scale and total egress bandwidth with the latest utilization report.


2. What is the minimum number of days that you can store a classic guest operating system (OS) metric on an Azure storage account?

14


4. Which query can you use to create alerts in Azure Monitor?

| where Level != 3



5. You have a saved search that monitors processor metrics for all virtual machines (VMs). After you create an alert rule from within the workspace, how would you alert on processor metrics for only Windows VMs?

In the SQL Server Log Analyzer option, select the saved search. Use the search query field to edit the query.


6. What type of anomalous activity report is included as a risk detection type in Microsoft Entra ID?

Sign-ins from unknown sources



7. Which statement is true about creating alert rules in Azure?

You cannot create an alert for events in the alert category of the activity log.



You have an on-premises application server with a SQL Server backend. Your first step in migrating the environment into Azure platform as a service (PaaS) is to move the SQL database for the application to Azure SQL. How do you confirm that baseline performance for the application remains consistent after the move?

Prior to migration, configure App Insights to establish baseline performance metrics for the application. Compare App Insights before and after data.



10. You are working with your accounting department to validate an Azure invoice against that month's usage report. What are the equivalent terms from each document?

Name = Meter category;

Resource = Meter name;

Billable = Overage quantity



11. You want to create a query that looks at the variance of processor usage on all virtual machines (VMs) in your workspace. It should also display the top two results in a line chart that you can pin to your dashboard. What are two necessary steps to accomplish this?

Create a shared dashboard;

In the advanced analytics portal, create a query that uses the extend function.


12. You have two web applications behind an application gateway. What steps are necessary to view firewall logs for this environment?

Enable Web Application Firewall (WAF) and configure the logs that you want to archive to a storage account.


13. You are responsible for a number of App Services that have autoscale enabled. How would you view the weekly cost trends of these resources?

In the cost analysis tool, create a custom timespan. In the Cost History page filter by Meter.


14. When configuring an alert rule, which step defines the metrics to use?

Configure signal logic


15. Your company has multiple data centers and multiple environments across several regions in Azure. You must provide a centralized monitoring solution. What would be your first step in achieving this?

Install NPM agents on all endpoints in all locations.


16. How would you add notable events to your event dashboard?

Use Log Analytics query language.


17. You must create a Network Watcher in the Central-US region with the resource group DemoRG1. How will you create this using the command-line interface?

  --resource-group DemoRG1 \

  --locations centralus \ <<<<<<<<<<<<

  --enabled

  

  

  18. When viewing the event dashboard for a client you manage, the EVENT column is blank for certain workspaces. What could be the cause?

The client has not upgraded the workspaces with the blank EVENT column to the standard tier.
