Optional concept notes

User risk

Estimates the likelihood that an identity itself has been compromised.

Sign-in risk

Estimates the likelihood that a specific authentication request is not legitimate.

Identity Protection risk policy

Requires a response such as secure password change or MFA at a selected risk level.

Your sessionabout 12 minutes

Complete one provider lesson, then answer four related questions. That is enough for today; more practice is optional.

Optional concept notes

Risky user remediation

Lets a user or administrator resolve confirmed identity risk through supported actions.

Identity Protection risk detection

Records the observed signal that contributed to user or sign-in risk.

Confirm user compromised

Marks a risky identity as compromised so response workflows can act on that state.

Risky sign-in investigation

Correlates authentication details detections location device and remediation status.

Block 3 of 3

Understand Risky workload identity

15 min
Optional concept notes

Risky workload identity

Identifies suspicious service-principal behavior that may indicate application identity compromise.

No setup required

Practice the reasoning here

Use a fictional tenant. Draw one access path, apply least privilege, test an exception, and name the logs that would confirm the result.

  1. State the expected result before changing or testing anything.
  2. Name the observation, command, log, or report that would confirm it.
  3. Explain why the closest alternative does not fit the same requirement.
Your next milestone

Check the whole objective

This unlocks objective 2.3 for recall. The latest checkpoint needs 70% or higher; a lower result puts the lesson back near the front of your timeline.

One lesson at a time.Your block checks prepare you for this milestone. A score of 70% or higher advances the course; finishing a practice session completes your daily goal.
