A

Azure File Sync is backed by Azure Files, which offers several redundancy options for highly available storage.

53
Q

What happens to your local server in an Azure File Sync deployment if it fails?

A

The local server becomes a disposable caching device, and recovery involves provisioning another Windows Server.

54
Q

What is the first step to recover from a failed server in Azure File Sync without a local backup?

A

Provision another Windows Server, install the Azure File Sync agent and add it to the Azure File Sync deployment.

55

60
Q

When using Azure File Sync, what is a sync group?

A

In Azure File Sync, a sync group is a fundamental concept that defines how and where files are synchronized. A sync group contains a cloud endpoint and one or more server endpoints, which determine the locations for syncing files. Here’s how it works:

  • Cloud Endpoint: This is the Azure file share in an Azure Storage Account that acts as the central repository for your synchronization.
  • Server Endpoint: This is the path on a registered server (typically an on-premises server or a virtual machine) that you want to sync with the cloud endpoint.
61
Q

What is an access tier for Azure Storage?

A

An access tier in Azure Storage determines the cost and performance balance for data based on its access frequency. It optimizes storage costs by categorizing data as Hot (frequently accessed), Cool (infrequently accessed), or Archive (rarely accessed, long-term storage). Each tier has different pricing for storage and retrieval to suit varying data access needs.

A

Yes

85
Q

List the three access token types for use with Azure Storage?

A

User Delegation SAS: Grants access to Blob Storage using Azure Entra ID for authentication, providing role-based, user-specific access.

Service SAS: Provides scoped access to specific resources within a storage account (e.g., Blob, File, Queue, or Table) and uses the storage account key for authentication.

Account SAS: Grants access across multiple services (Blob, File, Queue, Table) within a storage account, allowing broader, account-level permissions, also authenticated with the storage account key.

86
Q

You need to store 50 TB of data in Azure and ensure it’s available for immediate access. To minimize costs, which storage solution should you implement?

A

To store 50 TB of data in Azure with immediate access while minimizing costs, consider using Azure Blob Storage with the Cool access tier. This tier is optimized for data that is infrequently accessed but requires immediate availability. It offers lower storage costs compared to the Hot tier, though with slightly higher access costs. Data in the Cool tier should be stored for a minimum of 30 days to avoid early deletion charges.
MICROSOFT LEARN

Alternatively, Azure Data Lake Storage is designed for large-scale data analytics and can handle vast amounts of data efficiently. It provides high throughput and low latency, making it suitable for scenarios where data needs to be processed or analyzed. However, if your primary requirement is storage with immediate access and cost minimization, Azure Blob Storage with the Cool tier is generally more cost-effective.

It’s important to assess your specific access patterns and performance requirements to choose the most appropriate storage solution.

87
Q

For Azure storage, is the general purpose tier SSD or HDD?

A

Azure’s General Purpose storage accounts offer two performance tiers:

Standard Tier: This tier utilizes hard disk drives (HDDs) and is designed for applications requiring bulk storage or infrequent data access. It provides cost-effective storage solutions.
QUIZLET

Premium Tier: This tier employs solid-state drives (SSDs) to deliver low-latency performance, making it suitable for I/O-intensive applications like databases.
QUIZLET

Therefore, within Azure’s general-purpose storage accounts, the Standard tier uses HDDs, while the Premium tier uses SSDs.

88
Q

Scenario
You are responsible for a solution that uses Azure Files storage. The solution needs to meet the following requirements:

Data Retention: Store data for up to 10 years.
Cost Reduction: Due to rising costs, implement strategies to lower expenses.
Requirements
To meet the above goals, you need to:

Automatically move data older than 7 years to a lower-cost storage option.
Automatically delete data older than 10 years.
Implement a solution with minimal effort.
Possible Solutions
Configure Immutable Storage

Immutable storage could ensure that data is not altered, but it does not address the need to automatically transition or delete data. It is primarily intended for legal or regulatory data retention policies.
Configure Lifecycle Management Policies

Lifecycle management policies can automatically transition data to lower-cost tiers and delete old data, but Azure Files does not currently support lifecycle policies. This solution works only with Azure Blob Storage.
Automate with Logic Apps, Azure Automation, or PowerShell Scripts

This option involves using a Logic App or Azure Automation to scan Azure Files storage, identify files by age, move data older than 7 years to lower-cost storage, and delete data older than 10 years. Azure PowerShell scripts can facilitate these actions, allowing automation with minimal manual effort.
Configure Snapshots

Snapshots create backups but do not help in automating the movement or deletion of data. They are helpful for point-in-time recovery but don’t impact storage costs in the way required here.

A

The best solution is to automate data management using Logic Apps, Azure Automation, or PowerShell scripts. Here’s why:

Direct Support for Azure Files: Since Azure Files does not support lifecycle management policies, Logic Apps and Azure Automation are the most practical ways to automate the tasks.
Automated Data Movement and Deletion: These tools can be set up to move data that is 7+ years old to lower-cost storage and delete data that is 10+ years old, as required.
Minimal Effort: With the right automation setup, this solution requires minimal manual intervention.

89
Q

Is Azure Storage Account soft delete applied at the account, container, or blob storage account level?

A

Azure Storage offers soft delete features at both the container and blob levels:

Blob Soft Delete: This feature protects individual blobs, snapshots, or versions from accidental deletion or overwriting. When enabled, deleted or overwritten blobs are retained for a specified period, allowing recovery during that time.
MICROSOFT LEARN

Container Soft Delete: This feature safeguards entire containers and their contents from accidental deletion. When enabled, deleted containers, along with their blobs, can be restored within a defined retention period.
MICROSOFT LEARN

These soft delete settings are configured at the storage account level but apply specifically to containers and blobs within that account. It’s important to note that soft delete does not protect against the deletion of the entire storage account itself. To prevent accidental deletion of a storage

90
Q

Can you enable soft delete for Azure Storage Accounts after the account is created?

A

Yes, you can enable soft delete for Azure Storage Accounts after the account is created. Soft delete can be configured at any time by navigating to the storage account’s settings in the Azure portal:

For Blob Soft Delete: Go to your storage account in the Azure portal, select Data Protection under the Blob service section, and enable soft delete for blobs. You can specify a retention period during which deleted blobs are recoverable.

For Container Soft Delete: Similarly, under the Data Protection settings, enable soft delete for containers if you want protection for entire containers and their contents.

Once enabled, soft delete will apply to future deletions, allowing you to restore deleted blobs or containers within the specified retention period.

91
Q

For Azure Storage Accounts, can you disable soft delete after it has been enabled?

A

Yes, you can disable soft delete for Azure Storage Accounts after it has been enabled. To do so, follow these steps in the Azure portal:

Navigate to the Storage Account: Go to your specific storage account in the Azure portal.

Access Data Protection Settings:

For Blob Soft Delete: Under the Blob service section, select Data Protection. In the settings, you can disable the soft delete option for blobs.
For Container Soft Delete: Under the same Data Protection settings, you can disable soft delete for containers.
Save Changes: After disabling, make sure to save your changes.

Disabling soft delete will mean that any subsequent deletions of blobs or containers will be permanent and cannot be recovered through the soft delete feature. However, any blobs or containers deleted before disabling soft delete will remain recoverable until their retention period expires.

92
Q

When would i use Azure Storage Account immutability storage policies?

A

Azure Storage immutability policies are typically used in scenarios where data integrity, retention, and protection from tampering are crucial, especially for regulatory compliance or legal requirements. Here are common use cases:

Regulatory Compliance: Many industries (e.g., finance, healthcare, and government) have strict regulations requiring data retention for a specified period and protection from modifications or deletion. Azure Storage immutability policies (like WORM - Write Once, Read Many) ensure that data is retained in its original form for the required period, making it ideal for regulatory compliance.

Financial Records and Audit Logs: Financial institutions often need to retain transaction records, logs, and audit trails that should remain unaltered for several years. Immutability policies prevent accidental or intentional tampering, ensuring data authenticity.

Healthcare and Medical Records: Healthcare providers are required to maintain patient data securely and prevent alterations to patient history or medical records. Immutability helps healthcare organizations maintain data integrity, meeting compliance standards like HIPAA.

Legal Holds and Litigation: During legal proceedings, organizations may need to place legal holds on documents or communications to ensure they remain unchanged until the case is resolved. The Legal Hold policy in Azure enables data preservation without a predefined expiration date, making it suitable for legal holds.

Internal Compliance and Data Governance: Some organizations implement internal policies to ensure that sensitive data is preserved for internal compliance. Using immutability policies helps enforce these standards, as data cannot be deleted or altered until the retention period ends or the legal hold is lifted.

Intellectual Property (IP) Protection: Companies may need to preserve product designs, research, or other intellectual property data securely and in an unalterable format. Immutability helps safeguard these assets and prevents unauthorized changes.

Cybersecurity and Incident Response: Immutable storage policies can help prevent data tampering or deletion in the event of a cybersecurity incident. By making logs, incident reports, and security data immutable, organizations can ensure they have a reliable source of evidence for forensic analysis or compliance audits.

93
Q

What do I use in an Azure Storage Account to set a period of time during which an object can not be modified?

A

Time-based Retention Policy: This policy makes blobs in a container immutable for a specified period. During this retention period, the data cannot be deleted or modified. It’s commonly used for compliance with regulations that require data retention.

94
Q

Explain Azure Account Storage Legal Hold Policy?

A

Legal Hold Policy: This option allows you to mark data with a legal hold, preventing deletion or modification until the legal hold is explicitly removed. It doesn’t have a specific retention period, so it’s suitable when the data must be preserved until the hold is lifted.

95
Q

Explain Azure Account Storage Legal Hold Policy?

A

Immutable Blob Storage (WORM): When immutability policies are enabled, the storage account is configured as Write Once, Read Many (WORM) storage. This ensures that data is only written once and cannot be altered, which is essential for certain regulatory requirements.

96
Q

Why are WORM (Write Once, Read Many) policies ideal for industries like finance and healthcare?

A

WORM policies ensure data is stored in an unalterable state, meeting strict regulations for data protection and retention in industries where data integrity is critical.

97
Q

How does immutability help organizations meet data retention requirements for regulatory purposes?

A

Immutability policies enforce data retention by preventing deletion or modification of data, allowing organizations to comply with regulatory standards mandating data preservation.

98
Q

Why are immutability policies important for financial institutions when storing transaction records?

A

Immutability policies prevent tampering, ensuring that transaction records remain unchanged, thus supporting audit integrity and regulatory requirements.

99
Q

How do immutability policies prevent tampering with audit logs and ensure data authenticity over time?

A

By making data immutable, these policies safeguard audit logs from any modifications, ensuring the authenticity and reliability of data for audits and regulatory checks.

100
Q

What benefit do immutability policies provide for retaining financial records for multiple years?

A

Immutability policies allow financial records to remain intact and unaltered over long periods, meeting regulatory requirements for data retention and preventing accidental or intentional data loss.

101
Q

What purpose does the Legal Hold policy serve in Azure Storage during legal proceedings?

A

Legal Hold ensures that data remains unchanged and preserved for the duration of legal proceedings, providing a reliable record for legal review.

102
Q

How does the Legal Hold feature differ from standard retention-based immutability policies?

A

Unlike standard retention policies, Legal Hold does not have a set expiration, allowing data to be preserved indefinitely until the legal hold is explicitly lifted.

103
Q

Why might an organization use the Legal Hold policy without a set expiration date?

A

Organizations may use Legal Hold for cases where it’s uncertain when legal proceedings will conclude, ensuring data is preserved securely until the hold is released.

104
Q

In the event of a cybersecurity incident, how can immutable storage policies help an organization?

A

Immutable storage policies prevent attackers from altering or deleting critical data, allowing organizations to retain accurate logs and evidence for investigation.

105
Q

Why is it beneficial to make logs, incident reports, and security data immutable for forensic analysis?

A

Immutability ensures that forensic data remains unaltered, providing a reliable source of truth that investigators can use to analyze the incident thoroughly.

106
Q

How can i stop the blobs in a container been deleted of modified?

A

The immutable policy for an Azure Storage container primarily stops you from deleting or modifying the content (blobs) within the container. It does not directly prevent the deletion of the container itself under certain circumstances.

Key Behaviors:
Content Protection:
Once an immutable policy is applied, blobs in the container cannot be modified or deleted until the retention period expires or the legal hold is removed (if in place).
Even storage account administrators are unable to bypass this protection.
Container Deletion:

The container itself can only be deleted after all policies (e.g., immutability policy or legal hold) are cleared.
If the container still contains blobs protected by an immutable policy, the deletion of the container will be blocked.
How It Works:

If an immutable policy or legal hold is active:
Deleting blobs or versions inside the container: Blocked.
Deleting the container: Blocked until the immutability policy and legal hold are removed, and no protected blobs remain.

Once the retention period expires or the policy is removed:
Blobs are no longer immutable and can be deleted.
The container can also be deleted if it no longer has protected blobs.

107
Q

In Azure account storage using GRS, can you get the Last Sync Time?

A

Yes, in Azure Storage accounts configured with Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS), you can retrieve the “Last Sync Time” to determine the most recent point at which data from the primary region was successfully replicated to the secondary region. This information is crucial for assessing potential data loss in scenarios like failovers.

Using Azure PowerShell:

To obtain the Last Sync Time via PowerShell, ensure you have version 1.11.0 or later of the Az.Storage module installed. Then, execute the following command, replacing <resource-group> and <storage-account> with your specific values:</storage-account></resource-group>

PowerShell
Copy code
$lastSyncTime = (Get-AzStorageAccount -ResourceGroupName <resource-group> -Name <storage-account> -</storage-account></resource-group>
