Microsoft Security Operations Analyst Associate SC-200 Practice Question
Your organization uses Microsoft Defender XDR and has enabled automated investigation and response (AIR). You must ensure that remediation actions on Windows Server devices require analyst approval, while workstations can be remediated automatically without intervention. What should you configure to meet this requirement?
Enable EDR in block mode for servers and keep EDR in passive mode for workstations.
Change the global automation level in Microsoft Defender XDR settings to "Semi - require approval for any remediation" and exclude workstations from the policy.
Use Live Response to create a remediation script that prompts analysts before running on servers and runs silently on workstations.
Create two device groups and set the Windows Server group to the "Semi - require approval" automation level and the workstation group to the "Full - remediate automatically" level.
Automation behavior in Defender for Endpoint is controlled per device group. By placing Windows Server devices in a dedicated device group whose automation level is set to "Semi - require approval for any remediation," remediation actions generated by AIR will appear in the Action center and wait for analyst approval. Workstations should be placed in a separate device group that uses the "Full - remediate automatically" level so actions are applied without analyst involvement. Changing the global automation level or enabling EDR in block mode would apply the same behavior to all devices, and Live Response does not affect AIR automation decisions.
