Topic: Describe security management capabilities in Azure
Difficulty: medium
Contoso Ltd has recently migrated their on-premises environment to Azure. They want to ensure that all their Azure resources adhere to best security practices. Which tool should they use to assess the security posture of their Azure resources and provide recommendations for improvement?

Answer Options

A
Microsoft Defender for Cloud
B
Secure Score
C
Security Baselines
D
Azure Policy

Correct Answer

B: Secure Score

Explanation

Secure Score is the appropriate tool for assessing the security posture of Azure resources and providing recommendations for improvement. It provides a comprehensive view of the security posture across all Azure resources and offers actionable insights to improve security. Microsoft Defender for Cloud can be used for monitoring and responding to security events, but it does not provide a holistic assessment of the security posture like Secure Score does. Security Baselines offer compliance checks and remediation guidance for specific services, but they do not provide an overall security posture assessment.
