You have an Azure SQL database that has columns. The columns contain sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII) data.
You need to design a solution that tracks and stores all the queries executed against the PII data. You must be able to review the data in Azure Monitor, and the data must be available for at least 45 days.
Solution: You add classifications to the columns that contain sensitive data. You turn on Auditing and set the audit log destination to use Azure Blob storage.
Does this meet the goal?
Answer options
- A. Yes
- B. No
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The proposed solution is effective because enabling Auditing for the Azure SQL database will track and store all queries executed against PII data, and storing the logs in Azure Blob storage ensures they are retained for the required period of at least 45 days. The other option, which is 'No', is incorrect because it dismisses the validity of the solution that meets the outlined requirements.
