AI-200 Security And Observability Practice Question

Your AI application is hosted on Azure App Service and connects to Azure Cosmos DB and Azure OpenAI. You want to ensure that if credentials or connection strings ever leak, they cannot be used from unauthorized networks. Which feature should you implement?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

IP firewall rules and virtual network service rules on the backend services restricting access to App Service

Network service tags and IP firewalls on Azure Cosmos DB and Azure OpenAI restrict access to only allow incoming traffic from the specific outbound IP addresses or virtual network subnet of the App Service.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Disabling managed identities across all application components

    Why it's wrong here

    Incorrect. Disabling managed identities reduces security by forcing reliance on static credentials.

  • IP firewall rules and virtual network service rules on the backend services restricting access to App Service

    Why this is correct

    Correct. Combining authentication credentials with network perimeter controls ensures that even leaked keys cannot be used from unauthorized IP addresses.

  • Configuring Azure Front Door with SSL offloading only

    Why it's wrong here

    Incorrect. SSL offloading handles TLS termination at the edge, but does not secure backend database and AI service network perimeters.

  • Enabling public anonymous access with client-side rate limiting

    Why it's wrong here

    Incorrect. Anonymous access compromises data security.
