Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate AZ-500 Practice Question
You need to collect Windows Firewall security events from 200 Azure virtual machines that are spread across four subscriptions. All VMs run the Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) and belong to the same Azure region. You want the events to be written to a single Log Analytics workspace and you want to simplify future maintenance. Which action should you perform first?
Deploy a separate data collection rule in every subscription so that the rule and its target VMs always reside in the same subscription.
Create a dedicated Log Analytics workspace in each subscription and point each VM to its local workspace.
Create one data collection rule in any of the subscriptions and configure it to collect the Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing firewall log channel.
Edit the data collection configuration directly on each VM by using the Change Tracking solution.
A single data collection rule (DCR) can be referenced by many virtual machines, even when those VMs reside in other subscriptions, provided the machines are in the same Azure region as the rule. Creating one central DCR lets you define the event log channel, destination workspace, and any transformations one time, after which you associate the rule with every VM. Creating separate rules, editing agent settings on each VM, or deploying a workspace per subscription increase administrative overhead and are not required for the scenario.
