Microsoft SC-500 Practice Test 38

Question 370

An internal Azure App Service web app is exposed publicly and responds to unauthenticated clients. Which endpoint security design closes both authentication and unwanted ingress?

  1. Rotate the secret and use managed identity or a protected settings reference.
  2. Enforce a supported minimum TLS configuration and validate clients.
  3. Enable supported authentication/authorization and appropriate network restrictions.
  4. Separate slot settings/identities and restrict privileged access.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Require supported end-user/service authentication with app authorization and restrict public network paths as appropriate; test denied access without a valid identity.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Rotating an application secret helps credential hygiene but cannot force visitors to authenticate to an open HTTP endpoint.

B:

Enforcing modern TLS protects confidentiality in transit, not authentication or access rights to the application.

D:

Separate staging/production slots improve environment segregation but do not require login for the publicly reachable application.

Question 371

An App Service SQL database password appears in deployment source and App Service application settings. Which credential remediation prevents reuse of the disclosed value?

  1. Move the SQL password into a second App Service setting but keep the credential committed to the same source repository.
  2. Separate slot settings/identities and restrict privileged access.
  3. Enforce a supported minimum TLS configuration and validate clients.
  4. Rotate the secret and use managed identity or a protected settings reference.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Rotate and revoke the exposed password, prefer managed identity for supported Azure SQL connections or use protected Key Vault references with least privilege, and remove source exposure.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Renaming/moving an already exposed password to another app setting leaves source history and the original credential valid.

B:

Slot configuration controls where settings deploy, not whether a leaked SQL password remains valid.

C:

A higher minimum TLS version does not revoke a committed database password or stop someone authenticating with it.

Question 372

An Azure App Service application still negotiates a deprecated TLS protocol version. Which setting changes accepted CONNECTION security rather than the leaf certificate?

  1. Separate slot settings/identities and restrict privileged access.
  2. Enforce a supported minimum TLS configuration and validate clients.
  3. Renew the App Service TLS certificate but leave the site minimum TLS protocol at the obsolete version.
  4. Rotate the secret and use managed identity or a protected settings reference.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Configure the supported minimum TLS version in App Service/endpoint front door and verify legacy protocol attempts fail while approved clients negotiate a supported version.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Slot assignment controls configuration deployment but does not directly remove obsolete TLS negotiation.

C:

Renewing a certificate changes server identity validity but does not change enabled legacy TLS versions.

D:

Rotating backend credentials affects authentication to services, not the minimum TLS protocol permitted for incoming clients.

Question 373

An App Service staging slot is broadly accessible to developers yet contains production SQL credentials and sensitive slot settings. Which boundary separates staging from production secrets?

  1. Rename the staging slot Testing while continuing to expose production secrets to every developer assigned to the app.
  2. Enforce a supported minimum TLS configuration and validate clients.
  3. Separate slot settings/identities and restrict privileged access.
  4. Rotate a production database password but then place the replacement in the same broadly accessible staging slot.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Separate production and nonproduction identities, mark appropriate slot-specific settings, use least-privilege Key Vault references and remove overly broad developer access.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Renaming the slot does not affect the access grants or secret material exposed to existing developers.

B:

A minimum TLS version protects transport, not secret access by authorized staging developers.

D:

Rotation is insufficient if the replacement credential remains accessible to the same unintended staging principals.

Question 374

A public web application experiences malicious SQL injection attempts that must be BLOCKED, not merely logged. Which Web Application Firewall remediation implements an enforcing request-time safeguard?

  1. Distinguish detection from prevention enforcement and test actual request outcomes.
  2. Investigate matched rule evidence and create a narrow validated exclusion if justified.
  3. Evaluate appropriate WAF rate/bot policies without disabling legitimate users globally.
  4. Deploy supported WAF managed protections and confirm requests are evaluated.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Apply an appropriate Azure WAF managed rule set for SQL injection and enable an enforcing Prevention action after validation, so matching malicious HTTP requests are blocked.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Detection-mode logs reveal SQL injection attempts, but do not block them unless the WAF policy has an enforcing action.

B:

Narrow exclusions may address verified false positives, but broad exceptions would weaken injection coverage while attacks are occurring.

C:

Bot/rate-limit controls can mitigate automation and abuse, but they do not replace SQL injection signature protections.

Question 375

A WAF managed rule blocks a legitimate JSON request because of a specific request field. What should be investigated BEFORE making a narrow exception?

  1. Evaluate appropriate WAF rate/bot policies without disabling legitimate users globally.
  2. Disable the entire WAF managed ruleset to stop one legitimate JSON upload from being blocked.
  3. Distinguish detection from prevention enforcement and test actual request outcomes.
  4. Investigate matched rule evidence and create a narrow validated exclusion if justified.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Check the WAF matched rule ID, request field, logs and application behavior; if verified benign, tune the smallest supported rule/selector exclusion and retest malicious examples.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Bot rate limits address abusive request volumes, not the managed rule signature that matched the known legitimate field.

B:

Disabling all managed rules would remove protections for unrelated exploits in response to one possible false positive.

C:

Switching detection/prevention modes changes enforcement globally and is not a targeted fix for one JSON-field false positive.

Question 376

A production WAF runs in Detection mode and logs SQL injection payloads but never blocks them. Which policy-mode correction enforces managed-rule decisions?

  1. Rename the WAF policy Prevention while leaving its enforcement mode set to Detection.
  2. Distinguish detection from prevention enforcement and test actual request outcomes.
  3. Add more WAF managed rule signatures but leave the policy’s enforcement mode set to Detection.
  4. Evaluate appropriate WAF rate/bot policies without disabling legitimate users globally.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

After confirming false-positive tuning, switch the WAF to Prevention mode and verify injected requests are blocked while legitimate traffic succeeds.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A policy name is metadata; the actual mode field must be changed to enforce blocking.

C:

Additional managed signatures still only log their matches when the WAF policy is not in blocking Prevention mode.

D:

Bot/rate policies can mitigate flooding but cannot force an existing SQL-injection signature to block while the WAF remains in Detection mode.

Question 377

One public web endpoint is flooded by distributed automated requests, while normal customers should remain available. Which WAF controls manage the VOLUME and bad-bot pattern?

  1. Increase back-end compute capacity and omit WAF rate-limiting controls for an abusive bot endpoint.
  2. Deploy supported WAF managed protections and confirm requests are evaluated.
  3. Evaluate appropriate WAF rate/bot policies without disabling legitimate users globally.
  4. Distinguish detection from prevention enforcement and test actual request outcomes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Configure appropriate WAF rate-limiting/custom bot protection rules scoped to abusive patterns, test false positives and monitor legitimate user impact.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Adding backend capacity without abusive-traffic controls may allow the distributed bots to consume every new resource.

B:

Managed exploit signatures address payloads such as SQL injection but may not detect otherwise valid high-rate bot traffic.

D:

Confirming Prevention mode matters for enforcing protections, but alone does not define bot/rate thresholds targeted at the abusive endpoint.

Question 378

An API Management subscription key admits requests to a payroll API, and the backend assumes that key alone lets ANY caller approve salaries. What must the backend add?

  1. Redact secrets and preserve authorized correlation/diagnostic metadata.
  2. Add end-user/business authorization independent of gateway subscription access.
  3. Configure JWT/token validation at gateway and verify issuer/audience where appropriate.
  4. Restrict direct backend ingress and test that only approved API Management paths can reach it.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Authenticate the real user/service and enforce payroll-specific roles, object ownership and approval policy at the operation boundary; an APIM product subscription key identifies API access, not business approval.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Redacting credentials in gateway logs is important hygiene but does not enforce who may approve payroll.

C:

Valid JWTs establish caller identity and claims but still require an operation-level check that this caller may approve the particular payroll action.

D:

Private backend connectivity prevents bypassing APIM but is not sufficient payroll/business authorization once a request is admitted.

Question 379

An API Management route accepts unsigned/unvalidated bearer data from unknown clients. Which supported policy enforces token signature, issuer, audience and expiry validation?

  1. Apply per-caller rate or quota limits and return truthful throttling results.
  2. Add end-user/business authorization independent of gateway subscription access.
  3. Redact secrets and preserve authorized correlation/diagnostic metadata.
  4. Configure JWT/token validation at gateway and verify issuer/audience where appropriate.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Configure APIM validate-jwt or validate-azure-ad-token as appropriate, with trusted signing keys/OIDC, issuer, audience and relevant claim validation.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Rate limiting does not authenticate clients or reject an unsigned token claiming arbitrary identity.

B:

Backend business authorization is also needed for privileged operations but cannot substitute for rejecting fabricated access tokens at the gateway.

C:

Log redaction protects bearer tokens after authentication and cannot make an unsigned request trustworthy.

Question 380

A legitimate external partner repeatedly exceeds its fair share of API Management backend capacity with traffic bursts. Which gateway control throttles that caller?

  1. Apply per-caller rate or quota limits and return truthful throttling results.
  2. Configure JWT/token validation at gateway and verify issuer/audience where appropriate.
  3. Restrict direct backend ingress and test that only approved API Management paths can reach it.
  4. Add end-user/business authorization independent of gateway subscription access.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Enforce caller-identified rate limits or quotas at APIM, return correct throttling responses and measure impact rather than relying on backend overload.

Incorrect Answers

B:

JWT validation authenticates the partner, but does not limit the amount of traffic from that authenticated principal.

C:

Restricting direct backend ingress prevents bypass, but an already authorized API Management caller can still overload upstream capacity.

D:

Business authorization determines permissible operations, not fair per-client request or token consumption.
