Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate AZ-500 Practice Question

You are a security engineer for a subscription protected by Microsoft Defender for Cloud. The alert "Brute force attack against an Azure virtual machine" is triggered several times a day against test VMs. The traffic originates from your organization's approved penetration-testing IP range and should no longer raise alerts, but you must still detect the same attack from other sources. What should you do?

  • Disable the related recommendation in the subscription's Security policy.

  • Create an alert suppression rule in Microsoft Defender for Cloud that targets the alert type and specifies the penetration-testing IP range.

  • Mark the affected virtual machines as exempt items in Secure Score.

  • Configure an Azure Monitor alert rule with a filter that excludes the penetration-testing IP addresses.
