Reference:
The correct answer is not explicitly mentioned in the options provided. However, to help you understand the concepts, let's discuss each of the options and their relevance to auto provisioning in Azure Defender.
Auto provisioning is a feature of Azure Defender that automatically protects all eligible Azure resources that are deployed or created after the Defender is enabled. The resources are automatically onboarded and enrolled for protection.
Option A: Windows Events - Windows Events are logs generated by the Windows operating system that capture information about system activities and events. While Windows Events are useful for detecting and investigating security incidents, they are not related to auto provisioning in Azure Defender.
Option B: Policy for Azure Policy - Azure Policy is a service in Azure that allows you to create, assign, and manage policies to enforce compliance and governance across your Azure resources. Policy for Azure Policy is not an extension of auto provisioning in Azure Defender, as it does not relate to the automatic protection of Azure resources.
Option C: Policy Add-on for Kubernetes - Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform used for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. The Policy Add-on for Kubernetes is an extension of Azure Policy that allows you to create and enforce policies for Kubernetes resources deployed on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). While this option is related to policies and extensions, it is not related to auto provisioning in Azure Defender.
Option D: Policy for DNS - DNS (Domain Name System) is a hierarchical naming system that translates domain names into IP addresses. Policy for DNS is a feature of Azure DNS that allows you to create and enforce policies for DNS zones to ensure compliance with naming conventions and other requirements. While DNS security is important for securing Azure resources, Policy for DNS is not an extension of auto provisioning in Azure Defender.
In summary, none of the options listed are extensions of auto provisioning in Azure Defender. Therefore, the correct answer is not provided in the options given. To manually configure protection for Azure resources that are not part of the auto provisioning scheme, you would need to enroll these resources for protection manually.
