The requirement is to enable Microsoft Defender for Servers Plan 2 on all Azure VMs while excluding Server2 from agentless scanning . Defender for Cloud provides a built-in mechanism to exclude specific machines from agentless scanning based on resource tags . The process is: assign a distinct tag name:value to the VM you want to exclude (Server2), and then, in Defender for Cloud’s Agentless scanning for machines settings, specify that tag pair under exclusions . Defender’s continuous discovery honors these exclusions and skips any VM that matches the configured tag. This approach aligns with the business requirement of least privilege and minimal administrative effort : it avoids broad configuration changes, requires no extensions on the VM, and is reversible by simply removing or changing the tag. The Microsoft Antimalware extension and Automanage configuration are unrelated to agentless scanning behavior, and a resource lock would only prevent modifications/deletions, not scanning. Therefore, to meet the Defender for Cloud requirement precisely, configure an Azure resource tag on Server2 and reference that tag in the agentless scanning exclusion settings.

To monitor and detect higher-than-normal volumes of password resets, you need to gather password reset event data both from Azure Active Directory (cloud identities) and from on-premises Active Directory (domain accounts) . Microsoft’s official Defender XDR and Sentinel integrat ion guidance describes that:

Azure AD Password Protection enforces and monitors password policies in both cloud and hybrid environments. It can detect weak, commonly used, or compromised passwords and logs related password change/reset activities. Deployin g Azure AD Password Protection extends password reset visibility to on-premises domain controllers through the Password Protection proxy and DC agent. This makes it the correct choice for implementing monitoring at the identity environment level.

In Microsoft Sentinel , to ingest and analyze password reset activities from on-premises servers (e.g., domain controllers), you must use the Windows Security Events via AMA connector . This connector collects Event ID 4723 (password change) , 4724 (password res et) , and related security logs directly from Windows Servers into the Sentinel Log Analytics workspace through the Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) . Once the events are available in Sentinel, they can be correlated with other identity or behavioral analytics to d etect abnormal reset volumes or potential compromise attempts.

The other options are not suitable:

Microsoft Defender for Identity focuses on identity compromise detection, not specifically on password reset volume monitoring.

Smart lockout protects agains t brute-force sign-in attempts but doesn’t generate detailed reset event telemetry.

Microsoft security rule and UEBA are higher-level analytic configurations, not data ingestion mechanisms.

Therefore, to meet the Sentinel requirements for monitoring passwo rd reset anomalies:

✅ Implement in the identity environment: Azure AD Password Protection

✅ Configure in Microsoft Sentinel: The Windows Security Events via AMA connector

To have a Microsoft Sentinel workbook pull live data from an external web service, you use the workbook’s built-in JSON data source. Workbooks can query REST endpoints that return JSON and render results dynamically in visuals. Because the Azure portal (where the workbook runs) is a different origin than your on-prem/public Webapp1 , browsers will block these cross-origin requests unless the endpoint explicitly allows them. Therefore, the external service must enable CORS to permit the portal’s origin to fetch the JSON. This aligns with Microsoft guidance that Workbooks can query HTTP/HTTPS JSON endpoints and that external endpoints must allow cross-origin requests for client-side calls from the Azure portal. Enforcing CORS on Webapp1 satisfies the security model while enabling the workbook to retrieve data at view time—meeting the requirement to “dynamically retrieve data from Webapp1.” Options like “custom endpoint” or “custom resource provider” aren’t needed here, and enabling SOP or only enforcing TLS 1.2 wouldn’t address the browser’s cross-origin policy blocking the call.
