Microsoft Security Operations Analyst Associate SC-200 Practice Question

Your SOC keeps receiving repeated "Suspicious PowerShell activity" alerts from a maintenance script that legitimately runs only on servers in the Automation device group. You want to prevent new alerts about this script when it runs on those servers, but you must keep existing alerts visible for auditing. Which Microsoft 365 Defender feature should you configure to meet the requirement?

  • Develop a custom detection rule that excludes the maintenance script's process name.

  • Configure an incident email notification rule to exclude this alert title.

  • Create an alert suppression rule for the "Suspicious PowerShell activity" alert scoped to the Automation device group.

  • Add the script's file hash as an Indicator with the action set to Allow, scoped to the Automation device group.
