Question 1 A configuration report lists 1,000 assigned devices, but 300 have not checked in and 80 show Not applicable. Management calls all 380 devices deployment failures. How should the administrator report the result?

Answer choices

  1. A. Count every assigned device without a success result as an error, within the documented scope, ownership, and validation boundaries.
  2. B. Separate assignment, check-in, applicability, conflict, error, and effective-state results before identifying actual failures, within the documented operational, security, ownership, and validation requirements.
  3. C. Delete devices that have not checked in so the report reaches 100 percent, under the documented operational and governance requirements.
  4. D. Export the report without its current filters and use the largest row count, under the organization’s defined implementation and exception-management process.

Correct answer

Separate assignment, check-in, applicability, conflict, error, and effective-state results before identifying actual failures, within the documented operational, security, ownership, and validation requirements.

Assignment alone does not prove policy receipt or application. Devices that have not checked in and devices for which a policy is inapplicable must be distinguished from genuine conflicts and errors before reporting deployment failure.

Wrong-answer review

  • A. Count every assigned device without a success result as an error, within the documented scope, ownership, and validation boundaries.: This misclassifies devices that lack evaluation or are inapplicable as though they produced confirmed errors.
  • C. Delete devices that have not checked in so the report reaches 100 percent, under the documented operational and governance requirements.: Deleting records manipulates the denominator and does not establish the policy result on those devices.
  • D. Export the report without its current filters and use the largest row count, under the organization’s defined implementation and exception-management process.: Removing scope and status filters produces a count that cannot be compared reliably with the portal view.

Extra learning features

Why this matters

Incorrect reporting due to a lack of granular filtering can lead to inaccurate insights into device health and deployment status, delaying critical remediation efforts and potentially impacting service availability. The administrator must implement a robust filtering strategy to ensure accurate data aggregation and meaningful analysis. This is critical for proactive management and efficient troubleshooting.

Objective/domain: Optimize endpoint operations by using automation, monitoring, and reporting

Question 2 A proposed App Control policy would allow only approved code, but pilot testing shows it may block a line-of-business application. The team also wants Defender device risk to influence cloud access. What is the safest design?

Answer choices

  1. A. Audit and stage the App Control rollout, preserve required security capabilities, and separately integrate Defender risk with compliance and Conditional Access
  2. B. Enforce App Control tenant-wide immediately because baselines and pilots are unnecessary, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements.
  3. C. Replace App Control with disk encryption because encrypted disks prevent unapproved code from running, as the recommended implementation across the complete governed service lifecycle.
  4. D. Use one attack surface reduction rule as a replacement for App Control, antimalware, firewall, and EDR, within the documented operational, security, ownership, and validation requirements.

Correct answer

Audit and stage the App Control rollout, preserve required security capabilities, and separately integrate Defender risk with compliance and Conditional Access

Objective/domain: Protect devices

Question 3 An Autopilot device preparation session places a laptop in the approved device group, but one selected application fails and Setup cannot complete. Which evidence should the administrator review first?

Answer choices

  1. A. The device preparation report for the application, policy, and deployment results from that provisioning session, within this context.
  2. B. A Company Portal branding report unrelated to out-of-box preparation, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements.
  3. C. Only the device name, because naming proves every selected application installed, for the stated security, delivery, and accountability requirements.
  4. D. A classic Autopilot hardware-hash import report even though device preparation is in use, within the described context.

Correct answer

The device preparation report for the application, policy, and deployment results from that provisioning session, within this context.

What should it use?

Answer choices

  1. A. Microsoft Entra registered devices and a static user group, under the proposed approach.
  2. B. Microsoft Entra hybrid joined devices and no enrollment, under the documented operational and governance requirements.
  3. C. Microsoft Entra joined devices with an appropriate dynamic device group
  4. D. Workgroup devices, because a dynamic group creates the device identity, in context.

Correct answer

Microsoft Entra joined devices with an appropriate dynamic device group

Objective/domain: Prepare infrastructure for devices

Question 5 Your organization has Microsoft Entra-joined devices that require enhanced local administrator password management. To ensure centralized control and security, you want to leverage Microsoft's recommended approach. How should you implement Windows LAPS for these devices?

Answer choices

  1. A. Manage Windows LAPS using Microsoft Intune, which is the recommended approach by Microsoft for organizations.
  2. B. Configure Windows LAPS policy settings through Group Policy Objects (GPOs) within Active Directory.
  3. C. Deploy Windows LAPS for Microsoft Entra ID manually, configuring policy settings directly on each device.
  4. D. Utilize Microsoft Entra Application Proxy to securely manage and rotate local administrator passwords.

Correct answer

Manage Windows LAPS using Microsoft Intune, which is the recommended approach by Microsoft for organizations.

Objective/domain: Prepare infrastructure for devices (20–25%)

Source: Deploy Intune policies to manage Windows LAPS

Question 6 An app configuration policy successfully sets a mobile app’s server URL, but company files can still be copied into personal applications. The team expected the configuration policy to enforce data protection. What should it add?

Answer choices

  1. A. A device naming rule that identifies protected mobile apps, under the organization’s defined implementation and exception-management process.
  2. B. An app protection policy with the required organizational-data transfer controls, for the specified implementation requirement.
  3. C. A second copy of the same server-URL configuration key, in the described situation.
  4. D. An enrollment platform restriction used as an application data-loss policy, for the affected environment.

Correct answer

An app protection policy with the required organizational-data transfer controls, for the specified implementation requirement.

Objective/domain: Manage and secure applications

Source: App configuration policies overview

Question 7 A PowerShell inventory script calls Microsoft Graph with an application secret copied into the source file. The repository is shared with several administrators. What should replace this design?

Answer choices

  1. A. A longer secret committed to the same repository, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, in context.
  2. B. A supported protected authentication method for a least-privileged Graph identity, with consent and credential lifecycle governed outside the script, for the stated implementation and support requirements.
  3. C. A local device administrator account because local privilege authorizes Graph, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, for evaluation.
  4. D. Anonymous Graph access because the script reads inventory, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, within the described operational context.

Correct answer

A supported protected authentication method for a least-privileged Graph identity, with consent and credential lifecycle governed outside the script, for the stated implementation and support requirements.

Objective/domain: Optimize endpoint operations by using automation, monitoring, and reporting

Source: Microsoft Graph and Intune

Question 8 Autopatch-registered devices meet prerequisites, but updates stop across several managed rings during a reported service incident. A smaller subset also has documented compatibility holds. What should the administrator do?

Answer choices

  1. A. Re-register every device because registration must be the only possible cause, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements.
  2. B. Force updates past all holds before checking the reported service condition, as the proposed design for the complete governed operational workflow.
  3. C. Track the service incident for the broad interruption and separately investigate compatibility holds and exceptions for the affected subset
  4. D. Remove the devices from managed rings and leave them permanently unserviced, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, in practice.

Correct answer

Track the service incident for the broad interruption and separately investigate compatibility holds and exceptions for the affected subset

Objective/domain: Protect devices

Source: Windows Autopatch overview

Question 9 A signed inventory agent must elevate silently during a scheduled maintenance window, a vendor updater should elevate only after user confirmation, and every other executable should remain denied.
