Submitted by mateo_ar· Mar 6, 2026Implement and manage network security - specifically configuring and understanding the behavior of Just-in-Time (JIT) VM access in Microsoft Defender for Cloud (Azure Security Center), including how JIT policies govern inbound access, port-specific rules, and how internal VNet traffic interacts with JIT controls.

Question

Hotspot Question You have an Azure subscription that contains a virtual network named VNet1. VNet1 contains the subnets shown in the following table. The subscription contains the virtual machines shown in the following table. VM3 contains a service that listens for connections on port 8080. For VM1, you configure just-in-time (JIT) VM access as shown in the following exhibit. For each of the following statement, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Explanation

JIT VM access is configured on VM1, which controls inbound connections TO VM1, not outbound connections FROM VM1. For Statement 2 (Yes): VM2 is in the same VNet/subnet as VM1 and JIT allows access after requesting it through the portal - the exhibit shows RDP (port 3389) is enabled with a maximum of 3 hours, so VM2 can RDP to VM1 after requesting access. For Statement 3 (Yes): VM3 is on the same subnet (or VNet) as VM1, and JIT access typically allows traffic from the same VNet/subnet without requiring a formal JIT request, as JIT primarily restricts external/internet-facing access - internal VNet traffic is not blocked by JIT rules. For Statement 1 (No): JIT is configured on VM1 to protect VM1 as the target; VM1 initiating an outbound RDP connection to VM3 is not governed by JIT. However, VM3 runs a service on port 8080, not port 3389 (RDP), meaning RDP connections to VM3 would not be possible regardless of JIT configuration.
