    AZ-900 · Question 49 · Domain 3.2: Features and Tools for Governance and Compliance

    Which Azure feature can you use to prevent accidental deletion of a critical production database, even by users who have administrative privileges?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Azure Policy

    B.

    Resource Locks

    C.

    Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

    D.

    Azure Blueprints

    How to approach this question

    Look for the keyword 'prevent accidental deletion'.

    Full Answer

    B.Resource Locks✓ Correct
    Resource Locks
    Resource Locks prevent accidental deletion or modification of your Azure resources. A lock overrides any user permissions. Even if a user has Owner privileges via RBAC, if a 'CanNotDelete' lock is applied, they cannot delete the resource until the lock is explicitly removed.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing RBAC. People assume removing delete permissions via RBAC is the answer, but the scenario specifies the user has administrative privileges. Locks are the safety net against admin mistakes.
