Question 1

An organization is using MongoDB Atlas for managing their databases across multiple regions. As part of their operations, they need to ensure that all database activities, especially write operations and configuration changes, are logged for audit and compliance purposes. The organization also requires these logs to be accessible for at least 90 days for analysis in case of any security breaches. As the MongoDB Atlas Administrator, how would you configure Atlas to meet these requirements?

Options :

A : Enable database auditing and set the log retention policy to 90 days in the project settings.

B : Utilize MongoDB’s default logging mechanism, which automatically retains logs for 90 days.

C : Configure third-party log management integration in Atlas and set a custom retention policy.

D : Set up an external logging service to fetch logs from Atlas via API on a daily basis.

Answer: A

Question 2

A MongoDB Atlas Administrator is tasked with ensuring that a restoration process is compatible with existing database versions across various cluster types: free, dedicated, and serverless. When planning a restore procedure for a dedicated cluster that has undergone several version upgrades, what must be considered to guarantee compatibility between the backup version and the cluster’s current version?

Options :

A : Ensure that the backup version is at least one major version lower than the cluster-s current version before performing the restore.

B : Verify that the backup was taken from the same MongoDB server version or newer compared to the version currently running on the cluster.

C : Only restore backups that are from the exact same MongoDB version, including the minor patch number, to avoid any compatibility risks.

D : Restore backups directly to the cluster regardless of the original version of the backup, as MongoDB Atlas automatically handles version compatibility.

Answer: B

Question 3

To secure your MongoDB Atlas cluster and ensure that only specific IP addresses can connect to it, what should you configure?

Options :

A : Disable IP whitelisting to reduce complexity.

B : Enable IP whitelisting and add the specific IP addresses.

C : Use a single shared IP address for all users.

D : Use the default open access setting.

Answer: B

Question 4

You are responsible for ensuring the security and compliance of a MongoDB Atlas deployment. To track all administrative actions and changes to the database, which feature should you utilize, and what is the primary difference between it and the activity feed?

Options :

A : Use the Audit Log; it logs all administrative actions and provides more detailed information.

B : Use the Activity Feed; it logs all user actions and database changes.

C : Use both the Activity Feed and Audit Log interchangeably; they serve the same purpose.

D : Use the Activity Feed; it provides detailed logging of administrative actions.

Answer: A

Question 5

An organization is concerned about the accidental termination of their critical MongoDB Atlas clusters. They seek to implement measures to prevent such occurrences. Given their use of the M30 cluster tier, which of the following statements about Termination Protection in MongoDB Atlas is true?

Options :

A : Termination Protection can be enabled at the cluster level from the Atlas UI or API on M30 and above tiers.

B : Termination Protection is automatically enabled for all cluster tiers, including M30.

C : Termination Protection can be enabled from the Atlas UI but only for clusters above the M40 tier.

D : Termination Protection must be configured via API for all cluster tiers.

Answer: A
