SC-200 Practice Tests: Security Operations Analyst (2026)

SC-200, the Microsoft Security Operations Analyst exam, moves fast; Defender XDR and Sentinel change constantly, and stale practice questions are the number one complaint in this category. Wrong answers, retired portal names, KQL that wouldn't parse.

You get 6 full-length practice tests of 60 questions each; 360 original questions weighted to the official study guide:

Manage a security operations environment (40-45%)

Respond to security incidents (35-40%)

Perform threat hunting (20-25%)

The content is current: Defender XDR (never "Microsoft 365 Defender"), Microsoft Sentinel in its current form, real KQL with genuine operators and tables shown as plain-text snippets, incident response workflows, and the newer Security Copilot and agentic material the refreshed exam brought in.

Each test mixes 45 multiple-choice and 15 multi-select questions in scenario style; you're in the SOC, an incident is unfolding, what do you do?

Every answer option has its own explanation, and every question ends with a Microsoft Learn reference link.

These are original questions written from the public exam outline and the documentation, not "real exam questions". Dumps get certifications revoked.

Think a question is wrong? Post in the Q&A. I'll check it against the docs, fix it if you're right, and credit you.

Happy learning!
