Free SC-900 Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 15What these practice questions cover
These 15 free SC-900 practice questions cover all domains of the Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals exam: core security and compliance concepts, Microsoft identity and access management solutions, Microsoft security solutions, and Microsoft compliance solutions. Each question includes an explanation so you understand why the correct answer is right and why the alternatives are not.
The SC-900 tests conceptual understanding, not hands-on configuration. Questions are scenario-based: you need to identify the right Microsoft security product for a given scenario, explain how concepts like Zero Trust or defence-in-depth apply, or distinguish between services such as Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Sentinel, and Microsoft Purview.
