Endpoint Administrator MD-102 Practice Test 61

Question 600

An App Control enforcement rule blocks a legitimate internal application update due to a new signing certificate. After implementing: Revise authorized signer rules after verifying the new publisher identity. Which continuing safeguard best prevents this problem from recurring?

  1. Turn on App Control enforcement for production immediately without audit-mode compatibility results.
  2. Deploy ASR changes in audit mode before blocking where compatibility risk exists.
  3. Govern certificate rotation and App Control rule changes through peer review.
  4. Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Govern certificate rotation and App Control rule changes through peer review. App Control trust criteria must match the updated binary's permitted identity. The verified updated app launches and untrusted test executables remain blocked.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The suggested safeguard ‘Turn on App Control enforcement for production immediately without audit-mode compatibility results’ would leave the demonstrated risk unresolved. Govern certificate rotation and App Control rule changes through peer review.

B:

The alternative ‘Deploy ASR changes in audit mode before blocking where compatibility risk exists’ is not the continuing control for this configuration. The relevant safeguard is ‘Govern certificate rotation and App Control rule changes through peer review’.

D:

The alternative ‘Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure’ is not the continuing control for this configuration. The relevant safeguard is ‘Govern certificate rotation and App Control rule changes through peer review’.

Question 601

Security wants to understand which business apps an App Control policy would block before enforcing it. Which administrative action most directly meets the stated requirement?

  1. Use an antivirus file exclusion as a substitute for an approved App Control for Business signer execution allowlist.
  2. Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events.
  3. Deploy an Intune endpoint security disk encryption policy for BitLocker with appropriate recovery-key backup.
  4. Revise authorized signer rules after verifying the new publisher identity.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution. Audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The proposed ‘Use an antivirus file exclusion as a substitute for an approved App Control for Business signer execution allowlist’ does not implement the required change. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

C:

The alternative ‘Deploy an Intune endpoint security disk encryption policy for BitLocker with appropriate recovery-key backup’ does not implement the required action ‘Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events’. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

D:

The alternative ‘Revise authorized signer rules after verifying the new publisher identity’ does not implement the required action ‘Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events’. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

Question 602

Security wants to understand which business apps an App Control policy would block before enforcing it. An endpoint administrator proposes: Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events. Which technical explanation most directly supports the proposed action?

  1. App Control and Defender Antivirus exclusion policies make the same executable code-trust decision before launch.
  2. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.
  3. Security baselines bundle tested configuration recommendations rather than targeting one unrelated device application.
  4. App Control trust criteria must match the updated binary's permitted identity.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution. Audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The proposition ‘App Control and Defender Antivirus exclusion policies make the same executable code-trust decision before launch’ is not the reason the selected control works. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

C:

Security baselines bundle tested configuration recommendations rather than targeting one unrelated device application. The controlling technical behavior here is audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

D:

App Control trust criteria must match the updated binary's permitted identity. The controlling technical behavior here is audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

Question 603

Security wants to understand which business apps an App Control policy would block before enforcing it. The approved approach is: Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events. Which observable test result best confirms the proposed outcome?

  1. An App Control policy is assigned but an unsigned or unapproved executable is never tested for blocking.
  2. A permitted signed application executes and an unknown executable is blocked.
  3. Audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.
  4. An untrusted test program cannot modify protected content while approved applications remain usable.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The proposed observation ‘An App Control policy is assigned but an unsigned or unapproved executable is never tested for blocking’ does not establish the target state. Audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.

B:

A permitted signed application executes and an unknown executable is blocked. The required observation is audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.

D:

An untrusted test program cannot modify protected content while approved applications remain usable. The required observation is audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.

Question 604

Security wants to understand which business apps an App Control policy would block before enforcing it. After implementing: Deploy an App Control audit policy and inspect collected events. Which continuing safeguard best prevents this problem from recurring?

  1. Turn on App Control enforcement for production immediately without audit-mode compatibility results.
  2. Start in audit mode, evaluate false blocks, then enforce gradually.
  3. Version the selected baseline and review updated recommendations.
  4. Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure. Audit mode records likely blocks without immediately disrupting production execution. Audit events identify candidate apps needing approved allowances before enforcement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The suggested safeguard ‘Turn on App Control enforcement for production immediately without audit-mode compatibility results’ would leave the demonstrated risk unresolved. Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure.

B:

The alternative ‘Start in audit mode, evaluate false blocks, then enforce gradually’ is not the continuing control for this configuration. The relevant safeguard is ‘Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure’.

C:

The alternative ‘Version the selected baseline and review updated recommendations’ is not the continuing control for this configuration. The relevant safeguard is ‘Use a pilot and maintain a tested emergency disable procedure’.

Question 605

An IT operations team wants staged OS update policies based on branch criticality. Which administrative action most directly meets the stated requirement?

  1. Design Windows update rings and update policies with pilot and broad deployment phases.
  2. Choose platform-specific Intune update management policies rather than one Windows-only ring.
  3. Configure suitable Intune update scheduling and restart experience settings.
  4. Release a new Windows quality update to every device group simultaneously before the pilot validates it.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Design Windows update rings and update policies with pilot and broad deployment phases. A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released. Pilot devices install first and broader rings follow the chosen schedule.

Incorrect Answers

  2. A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released.
  3. Available update controls and delivery mechanisms differ by operating system.
  4. A Windows update ring assignment overrides platform compatibility and guarantees installation at the configured time.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released. Pilot devices install first and broader rings follow the chosen schedule.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Update policy can control availability and restart behavior without disabling security servicing indefinitely. The controlling technical behavior here is A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released.

C:

Available update controls and delivery mechanisms differ by operating system. The controlling technical behavior here is A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released.

D:

The proposition ‘A Windows update ring assignment overrides platform compatibility and guarantees installation at the configured time’ is not the reason the selected control works. A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released.

Question 607

An IT operations team wants staged OS update policies based on branch criticality. The approved approach is: Design Windows update rings and update policies with pilot and broad deployment phases. Which observable test result best confirms the proposed outcome?

  1. Pilot devices install first and broader rings follow the chosen schedule.
  2. A pilot installs approved updates during the chosen maintenance window.
  3. The update ring exists but no pilot endpoint actually installed the approved patch on schedule.
  4. Each platform reports its appropriate update state under the assigned policies.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Pilot devices install first and broader rings follow the chosen schedule. A single simultaneous update assignment can cause widespread disruption when a bad build is released.
