You need to ensure that users can access VM0. The solution must meet the platform protection requirements.
What should you do?

A. Move VM0 to Subnet1.
B. On Firewall, configure a network traffic filtering rule.
C. Assign RT1 to AzureFirewallSubnet.
D. On Firewall, configure a DNAT rule.

Answer : A

Explanation:
Azure Firewall has the following known issue:
Conflict with Azure Security Center (ASC) Just-in-Time (JIT) feature.
If a virtual machine is accessed using JIT, and is in a subnet with a user-defined route that points to Azure Firewall as a default gateway, ASC JIT doesnג€™t work.
This is a result of asymmetric routing ג€" a packet comes in via the virtual machine public IP (JIT opened the access), but the return path is via the firewall, which drops the packet because there is no established session on the firewall.
Solution: To work around this issue, place the JIT virtual machines on a separate subnet that doesnג€™t have a user-defined route to the firewall.
Scenario:

Following the implementation of the planned changes, the IT team must be able to connect to VM0 by using JIT VM access.

You need to deploy Microsoft Antimalware to meet the platform protection requirements.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Answer :

Explanation:
Scenario: Microsoft Antimalware must be installed on the virtual machines in RG1.
RG1 is a resource group that contains Vnet1, VM0, and VM1.

Box 1: DeployIfNotExists -
DeployIfNotExists executes a template deployment when the condition is met.
Azure policy definition Antimalware
Incorrect Answers:
Append:
Append is used to add additional fields to the requested resource during creation or update. A common example is adding tags on resources such as costCenter or specifying allowed IPs for a storage resource.
Deny:
Deny is used to prevent a resource request that doesn't match defined standards through a policy definition and fails the request.
Box 2: The Create a Managed Identity setting
When Azure Policy runs the template in the deployIfNotExists policy definition, it does so using a managed identity. Azure Policy creates a managed identity for each assignment, but must have details about what roles to grant the managed identity.
