  • C. Azure Firewall ❌
  • Protects network traffic but does not provide VM-level threat detection and vulnerability management.

A.
Threat CategoryCorrect Action Selection
Internal threat:Modify the role-based access control (RBAC) settings for the key vault.
External threat:Modify the Key Vault firewall settings.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
  • Internal Threat: Granting or restricting specific user permissions internally is best handled using Azure Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). This allows you to enforce the principle of least privilege for administrators and internal applications interacting with the Key Vault.
    External Threat: Restricting access coming from outside the organization's trusted boundary requires network isolation. Modifying the Key Vault firewall settings allows you to limit traffic specifically to trusted virtual networks or specific public IP addresses, effectively blocking malicious external actors.
