Microsoft Defender for Cloud (formerly known as Azure Security Center) indeed provides a comprehensive solution that can meet all three requirements: Just-In-Time (JIT) VM Access: This feature allows you to require administrators to request access before establishing a Remote Desktop connection, enhancing security by reducing the attack surface. Network Security Group (NSG) Management: Defender for Cloud can help you manage NSGs to limit access to specific source IP addresses and ports, ensuring that only authorized traffic can reach your VM. So, the correct choice is: C. Microsoft Defender for Cloud This option effectively combines JIT access with NSG management to provide a robust security solution for your VM.

C. Microsoft Defender for Cloud This choice effectively meets all three requirements by allowing you to implement JIT access (requiring requests for RDP connections), manage IP restrictions through NSGs, and limit management port access securely.

To meet the specified requirements, you should configure a network security group (NSG). NSGs allow you to filter network traffic to and from Azure resources, including virtual machines (VMs). You can define rules within the NSG to control inbound and outbound traffic based on source and destination IP addresses, as well as specific ports. Option A. a network security group (NSG) is the correct choice as it allows you to:
