Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are an Azure administrator for Contoso Ltd. The company requires that they manage the encryption keys used for data at rest in their Azure storage account named 'contosodata'. They have a key vault named 'contosokeyvault' with their keys. You need to configure 'contosodata' to meet the company's requirements.
What should you do?
You selected this option
Disable default encryption on 'contosodata' and re-enable it using keys from 'contosokeyvault'.
You selected this option
Implement client-side encryption using keys from 'contosokeyvault'.
You selected this option
Configure 'contosodata' to use a key from 'contosokeyvault' for encryption.
You selected this option
Enable Infrastructure Encryption on 'contosodata' and specify 'contosokeyvault' as the key provider.
To allow Contoso Ltd to manage the encryption keys for 'contosodata', you should configure the storage account to use a key from 'contosokeyvault' for encryption. This sets up customer-managed keys (CMK) using Azure Key Vault, giving the company full control over the keys used for encryption at rest. Enabling Infrastructure Encryption provides additional encryption but still uses Microsoft-managed keys. Client-side encryption is managed by the client application and does not change the encryption settings of the storage account. Default encryption on Azure storage accounts cannot be disabled.
