A SOC analyst wants to leverage Microsoft Sentinel's User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) to detect anomalous sign-in attempts where a user signs in from a country outside their typical pattern. The analyst needs to create an analytics rule that queries the necessary UEBA data. Which Sentinel table should the rule's KQL query primarily reference to evaluate geographic anomalies?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Distractor review
SigninLogs
Incorrect. While SigninLogs contains the raw sign-in data, it does not include the behavioral anomaly scoring provided by UEBA. To use UEBA insights, you must query the BehaviorAnalytics table.
B
Best answer
BehaviorAnalytics
Correct. The BehaviorAnalytics table stores enriched behavioral data, including geographic anomalies, device information, and time-based patterns computed by the UEBA engine.
C
Distractor review
IdentityInfo
Incorrect. IdentityInfo provides static identity metadata (e.g., job title, department, group memberships) but does not contain event-level behavioral anomalies.
D
Distractor review
AADUserRiskEvents
Incorrect. This table contains risk detections from Microsoft Entra ID Identity Protection (e.g., leaked credentials), not the custom geographic anomaly detection from Sentinel's UEBA.
Common exam trap
Common exam trap: NAT rules depend on direction and matching traffic
NAT is not only about the public address. The inside/outside interface roles and the ACL or rule that matches traffic are just as important.
Technical deep dive
How to think about this question
NAT questions usually test address translation, overload/PAT behaviour, static mappings and whether the right traffic is being translated. Read the interface direction and address terms carefully.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
- PAT allows many inside hosts to share one public address using ports.
- Inside local and inside global describe the private and translated addresses.
- NAT ACLs identify traffic for translation, not always security filtering.
TExam Day Tips
- Identify inside and outside interfaces first.
- Check whether the scenario needs static NAT, dynamic NAT or PAT.
- Do not confuse NAT matching ACLs with normal packet-filtering intent.

Question 6
An organization uses Microsoft 365 Defender. A security analyst is investigating a malware incident on a user's device. The automated investigation and response (AIR) has already isolated the device from the network. The analyst now needs to collect a copy of a specific suspicious file from the device for further analysis. Which action should the analyst initiate from the device's entity page?
FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this SC-200 question test?
Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: BehaviorAnalytics — The BehaviorAnalytics table in Microsoft Sentinel is populated by the UEBA engine. It contains computed behavioral information, including geographic anomalies (e.g., 'CountryInsights' field). The IdentityInfo table provides user identity enrichment but does not contain behavioral signals. SigninLogs contains raw sign-in events but does not include the computed anomaly context. AADUserRiskEvents contains risk events from Microsoft Entra ID Identity Protection, not Sentinel's UEBA.
