Which TWO are valid methods to ingest syslog data into Microsoft Sentinel?

Which THREE actions can be performed by automation rules in Microsoft Sentinel?

You need to configure Microsoft Sentinel to comply with a regulatory requirement that all security incidents must be retained for 7 years. Which TWO actions should you take?

Your organization uses Microsoft Sentinel with multiple workspaces across different regions. You need to centrally manage all security incidents from a single pane of glass. The solution must allow analysts to investigate incidents across workspaces without switching contexts. What should you configure?

You are a security analyst for a company that uses Azure Firewall. You are reviewing a custom rule deployed via Azure Firewall Manager. The exhibit shows the rule configuration. The rule is intended to block inbound traffic from known Tor exit nodes. However, a recent incident involved an attacker using a Tor exit node with IP 138.197.5.5 to access an internal web server on port 8080. The log shows the traffic was ALLOWED. What is the most likely reason the rule did not block the traffic?

You are configuring Microsoft Sentinel to ingest logs from Azure Active Directory (now Microsoft Entra ID). Which of the following connectors should you use to collect sign-in logs and audit logs?

Your organization uses Microsoft Sentinel and has multiple workspaces for different regions. The security team wants to use a single workbook to display data from all workspaces. What is the correct approach?

The compliance team requires that SigninLogs be retained for 7 years, while other tables can be retained for 1 year. Which THREE steps must you take to meet this requirement?

Your organization uses Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps to monitor cloud application usage. You have a custom analytics rule that detects multiple failed login attempts from different IP addresses for the same user within 5 minutes. This rule generates an incident. The security team wants to automatically suspend the user in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) when such an incident is created, but only if the user is not a member of the 'Emergency Access' group. You need to implement this automation. You have already created the analytics rule. What should you do next?
