SC-200 Practice Tests: Security Operations Analyst 2026

Are you ready for SC-200, or do you only think you are? This course shows whether you can apply them under exam conditions, and where the gaps are before you book the exam.The course contains five practice tests with 100 questions each: 500 questions in total, written for the SC-200 skills outline that applies from October 21, 2026. Every test follows the official domain weights: Manage a security operations environment (42 questions), Respond to security incidents (36) and Perform threat hunting (22).SC-200 has changed a lot. The April 2026 revision replaced the old four-domain outline with three domains and added the Microsoft Sentinel data lake and its retention tiers, KQL jobs, summary rules, Sentinel graph, hunting graphs with blast radius, the Sentinel MCP server, custom data collection in Defender for Endpoint and case management in the Defender portal. Practice material written for the older SC-200 outline still asks about Microsoft 365 Defender, Fusion rules and Sentinel in the Azure portal, and prepares you for an exam that no longer exists.The five tests get harder step by step:Test 1, Groundwork: one concept per question, to find your baseline.Test 2, In Practice: short SOC scenarios with features that are easy to mix up.Test 3, Trade-offs: two answers look right and one condition decides.Test 4, Under the Hood: settings, limits, exact role names, portal paths and KQL output.Test 5, Exam Day: long multi-constraint scenarios at the pace of the real SC-200 exam.Every answer option has its own explanation, so you also learn why the wrong options are wrong and what those features actually do. Each question ends with a general explanation and a link to the Microsoft Learn page it is based on.After each attempt, Udemy shows your score per domain, so you know where to focus your revision. The passing mark is 80% for tests 1 to 4 and 85% for test 5, higher than the real exam, because practising at home is easier than sitting a proctored exam.What this course is not: it is not a video course, not a dump of real exam questions, and not a replacement for the Microsoft Learn learning paths or hands-on practice. It is a way to test what you know and to learn from every mistake.Frequently Asked QuestionsAre these real exam questions?No. All questions are original and based on the official exam objectives.
