The help desk spends hours resetting passwords. You want only the users in the Sales group to reset their own passwords after verifying with a second method. What should you configure?
Correct answer: B
SSPR lets users reset their own passwords after proving identity with methods such as the Authenticator app or phone. You can enable it for a selected group instead of everyone.
You issue several SAS tokens for a blob container to a partner. You want to be able to revoke all of them at once later without rotating the account keys. What should you do?
Correct answer: D
A service SAS linked to a stored access policy can be revoked by changing or deleting that policy, with no key rotation.
You use one Bicep file to deploy a VM to dev and production. Production needs a larger VM size. What is the cleanest way to handle this?
Correct answer: A
Parameters provide values at deployment time, so the same file serves every environment with a different parameter file or value.
VNet A is peered with VNet B, and VNet B is peered with VNet C. VMs in VNet A cannot reach VMs in VNet C. What is the simplest fix?
Correct answer: C
Virtual network peering is not transitive. Add a direct peering, or use a hub with a network virtual appliance or gateway to route traffic.
Every Saturday from 01:00 to 03:00 you patch servers, and the CPU alerts fire during that window. You want to silence notifications only during maintenance without editing each alert rule. What should you create?
Correct answer: B
Alert processing rules can suppress action groups for fired alerts at a chosen scope and schedule, without changing the alert rules.
