Question 400
Defender for Storage is enabled for a blob storage account, but the security owner needs BOTH newly uploaded blob malware scans AND sensitive-data-aware suspicious-access detection. Which exact account-level feature configuration meets both requirements?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Defender for Storage provides separate on-upload antivirus scanning and sensitive-data threat detection. Verify that both features are enabled at the correct account scope and confirm scan limits/exclusions are appropriate.
Incorrect Answers
Posture-oriented discovery identifies potentially sensitive data; it does not replace the Defender for Storage antivirus scanning feature triggered on new uploads.
On-upload scanning evaluates blob content for malware but cannot by itself provide sensitive-data-aware suspicious-access signals. Both protections are required in this case.
Storage activity monitoring detects suspicious access, but antivirus scanning of blob uploads is a separately configurable feature. Filters, unsupported objects and monthly scan caps can leave uploads unscanned.
