Drag and Drop Question You are developing an application to securely transfer data between on-premises file systems and Azure Blob storage. The application stores keys, secrets, and certificates in Azure Key Vault. The application uses the Azure Key Vault APIs. The application must allow recovery of an accidental deletion of the key vault or key vault objects. Key vault objects must be retained for 90 days after deletion. You need to protect the key vault and key vault objects. Which Azure Key Vault feature should you use? To answer, drag the appropriate features to the correct actions. Each feature may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Explanation

Soft delete must be enabled first to allow recovery of accidentally deleted key vaults or key vault objects - it retains deleted items for a configurable retention period (90 days in this case) and allows them to be recovered. Purge protection builds on top of soft delete by preventing permanent deletion (purging) of the key vault or its objects during the retention period, ensuring that even administrators cannot bypass the 90-day retention window. Together, these two features fulfill both requirements: recoverability and enforced retention.
