SC-200 Manage a security operations environment Practice Question
Your organization uses Microsoft Sentinel. You need to automatically classify incidents based on MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Which THREE methods can be used to accomplish this?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse watchlists (static enrichment) with automated classification mechanisms, or think UEBA's anomaly detection inherently maps to MITRE techniques, when in fact it does not assign technique IDs without additional configuration.
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
✓
Enable the MITRE ATT&CK data connector.
The MITRE ATT&CK data connector in Microsoft Sentinel ingests threat intelligence feeds that include MITRE ATT&CK technique mappings, enabling automatic classification of incidents by technique. This connector pulls in indicators of compromise (IOCs) with associated technique IDs, which Sentinel then uses to tag and classify incidents during analysis.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Enable the MITRE ATT&CK data connector.
Why this is correct
This connector provides threat intelligence and enriches incidents.
- ✗
Create a watchlist with MITRE techniques.
Why it's wrong here
Watchlists don't automatically classify incidents.
- ✓
Use analytics rules that include MITRE ATT&CK mapping.
Why this is correct
Analytics rules can be configured with MITRE technique IDs.
- ✗
Use UEBA to detect techniques.
Why it's wrong here
UEBA detects anomalies but doesn't classify incidents by MITRE techniques.
- ✓
Create an automation rule that tags incidents with MITRE techniques.
Why this is correct
Automation rules can add tags based on incident properties.
