Microsoft Security Operations Analyst Associate SC-200 Practice Question
Your SOC uses Microsoft Defender XDR with device groups set to the automation level "Semi - require approval for any remediation." An automated investigation runs on a workstation after an alert for suspicious PowerShell activity. The investigation proposes several remediation actions.
Which remediation action will be carried out immediately without waiting for analyst approval?
When the automation level is set to "Semi - require approval for any remediation," Microsoft Defender for Endpoint pauses every remediation action and places it in a Pending state. However, activities that only collect evidence are not classed as remediation; they are executed automatically so the investigation can finish gathering the data it needs. Collecting an investigation package is therefore performed right away, whereas actions such as quarantining a file, removing a registry value, or isolating a device are remediation steps that stay Pending until an analyst approves or rejects them.
