FCP – Zero Trust Cloud Security Administrator 7.4 — Question 45

What is the main purpose of an Azure network security group?

Answer options

• A. To allow or deny unauthorized users to Azure portal
• B. To facilitate encryption and decryption of network traffic
• C. Managing user access and permissions for Azure VMs
• D. Defining security rules to control inbound and outbound network traffic

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because an Azure network security group is designed specifically to define security rules that control both inbound and outbound traffic. Options A, B, and C describe functions that are not related to the primary role of a network security group, which focuses on traffic management rather than user access or data encryption.
