Explanation

Before enabling or using Live Response (the remote shell feature) in Microsoft 365 Defender, role-based access control (RBAC) must be configured to define which users have the permissions required to initiate Live Response sessions. RBAC in Defender for Endpoint controls granular permissions including 'Live response' and 'Live response (advanced)'. Without RBAC configured, there is no permission model in place to govern who can use the feature. Once RBAC is set up with the appropriate roles, you can then enable Live Response in Advanced features (the action described in choice C). RBAC configuration is therefore the required first step.
