Q

Describe the steps required to ensure that writing Azure SQL Database audit logs to a storage destination are uninterrupted by a storage access key refresh

A. Switch the storage destination to an alternative storage account, refresh the primary and secondary storage keys in the storage configuration of the original storage account; optionally switch the storage destination back to the original account
B. Stop the Azure SQL Server associated with the Azure SQL Database; refresh the primary and secondary storage keys in the storage configuration; start the Azure SQL Server associated with the Azure SQL database
C. No action is required - storage keys are automatically updated for SQL Data audit logs when Storage access keys are refreshed
D. Switch the storage access key in the audit configuration to secondary; refresh the primary storage key in the storage configuration; switch the storage access key in the audit configuration to primary; refresh the secondary storage access key in the storage configuration

A

D. Switch the storage access key in the audit configuration to secondary; refresh the primary storage key in the storage configuration; switch the storage access key in the audit configuration to primary; refresh the secondary storage access key in the storage configuration

B. Azure Storage Service Encryption

Explanation:
Azure storage encryption is used to encrypt data at rest for Cosmos DB. HMAC is used in Cosmos DB authorisation, but not for data encryption. Applications can make use of Cosmos DB by storing the access tokens in Azure Key Vault instead of with the application. SSL/TLS is used by the system to ensure data protection (encryption) in transit. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/database-encryption-at-rest

E. AES 256-bit Encryption

A

B. Azure Storage Service Encryption

Explanation:
Azure Data Lake is built on Azure Storage, just like Blobs, Tables and Queues. It uses the same underlying encryption for data at rest - Storage Service Encryption. SSE uses AES 256-bit as the underlying encryption algorithm, but this is not the best answer for the question. SSL/TLS is encryption for data in transit, not data at rest. Azure Key Vault can be used for SSE in a Bring Your Own Key scenario, but does not perform encryption itself. Bitlocker is Microsoft’s encryption technology used on the endpoint, not relevant for SSE. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-za/azure/storage/common/storage-service-encryption?toc=%2fazure%2fstorage%2fblobs%2ftoc.json#view-encryption-settings-in-the-azure-portal
