Free SC-500 Practice Questions

Explore 3 free practice questions for the Microsoft SC-500 exam and review the answers and explanations to support your preparation.

  1. Question 1

    Single answer

    You are securing an Azure OpenAI deployment. The security team requires that traffic to the AI service must not traverse the public internet. What should you configure? 

    • Option A:
      Azure Front Door only
      Correct
    • Option B:
      Public network access
      Correct
    • Option C:
      Private endpoint
      Correct
    • Option D:
      Anonymous endpoint access
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: C

    Explanation

    A private endpoint allows the Azure OpenAI resource to be accessed through a private IP address from within an Azure virtual network. This prevents traffic from traversing the public internet and supports network-level isolation. Public network access should be disabled when private connectivity is required. Azure Front Door is useful for global application delivery but does not by itself make the Azure OpenAI service private. Anonymous endpoint access is not appropriate for secure AI workloads.

  2. Question 2

    Single answer

    You are configuring identity access for an AI workload. The application must access Azure Key Vault without storing client secrets in application code. Which authentication method should you use?

    • Option A:
      Managed identity
      Correct
    • Option B:
      Shared access signature
      Correct
    • Option C:
      Local administrator credentials
      Correct
    • Option D:
      Storage account access key
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: A

    Explanation

    Managed identity allows Azure resources to authenticate to other Azure services without storing credentials in application code or configuration files. For an AI workload that needs to access Azure Key Vault, managed identity is the recommended approach because it reduces secret exposure and supports role-based access control. Shared access signatures and access keys are harder to govern and rotate securely. Local administrator credentials should not be used for cloud service authentication

  3. Question 3

    Single answer

    You are designing a secure AI application that uses Azure OpenAI Service. Users must not access the Azure OpenAI endpoint directly. All requests must be authenticated, logged, and inspected before being sent to the model. Which component should you place between the users and Azure OpenAI Service?

    • Option A:
      Azure Bastion
      Correct
    • Option B:
      A secured backend API
      Correct
    • Option C:
      A public storage account endpoint
      Correct
    • Option D:
      A client-side JavaScript SDK only
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: B

    Explanation

    A secured backend API should be used as the controlled access layer between users and Azure OpenAI Service. This allows the organization to authenticate users, authorize requests, inspect prompts, log activity, and apply business rules before calling the AI model. Direct access from client applications to Azure OpenAI increases the risk of key exposure, unauthorized use, and weak governance. A backend API also supports managed identity and centralized security monitoring.
