Choose an answer to begin — your selection is scored in the full session.

Accepted Answer

Litigation Hold. Litigation Hold is the correct feature because it preserves all mailbox items and OneDrive files for specific users in their current state, preventing any alteration or deletion by users or automated processes. This is essential for legal holds where data must be immutable for eDiscovery purposes, and it applies at the user level rather than broadly across the organization.

Retention Policy

Answer

Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Answer

eDiscovery

Question 2

A compliance officer needs to ensure that all emails containing sensitive information (e.g., passport numbers) are automatically encrypted when sent to external recipients. The encryption should be enforced without requiring users to manually select an option. Which Microsoft Purview feature should they configure?

Accepted Answer

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy with encryption action. A Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy with encryption action is correct because it automatically detects sensitive information (e.g., passport numbers) using sensitive info types and enforces encryption via Microsoft Purview Message Encryption (OME) as a rule action. This ensures that when an email containing such data is sent to an external recipient, the email is automatically encrypted without requiring user intervention, meeting the compliance officer's requirement.

Question 3

A compliance administrator needs to automatically apply a retention label to all documents in a SharePoint Online site that contain Social Security numbers. The label should retain the documents for 5 years and then automatically delete them. Which feature should they configure?

Accepted Answer

retention label with auto-labeling. Retention labels with auto-labeling are designed to automatically apply retention settings based on sensitive information types, such as Social Security numbers, and can enforce a retention period (5 years) followed by automatic deletion. This feature is part of Microsoft Purview's records management and uses trainable classifiers or sensitive info types to trigger the label assignment on SharePoint Online documents.

Question 4

A compliance officer needs to prevent users from accidentally sharing documents containing credit card numbers with external users via email. The block should occur at the time the user attempts to send the email. Which Microsoft Purview feature should be configured?

Accepted Answer

Data Loss Prevention (DLP). Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is the correct feature because it is specifically designed to inspect email content in transit for sensitive data patterns, such as credit card numbers, and enforce policy actions like blocking the message at the transport layer. In Microsoft Purview, DLP policies can be configured to scan Exchange Online messages in real time using sensitive information types (e.g., Credit Card Number) and apply a block action with an optional policy tip to the user before the email leaves the outbound queue.

Question 5

A legal hold is required for all emails in a user's mailbox related to a litigation case. The administrator needs to ensure that the mailbox content is preserved even if the user tries to delete emails. Which Microsoft Purview feature should be used?

Accepted Answer

Litigation Hold. Litigation Hold is the correct choice because it is a Microsoft Purview feature specifically designed to preserve all mailbox content, including deleted items and original versions of modified items, for legal or compliance purposes.

Accepted Answer

Create an auto-labeling policy for sensitivity labels. Auto-labeling policies for sensitivity labels in Microsoft Purview can automatically apply a sensitivity label to documents in SharePoint Online based on sensitive information types, such as credit card numbers.

Accepted Answer

Auto-labeling policy for SharePoint Online.

Question 9

A compliance administrator needs to automatically apply a retention label to documents in a SharePoint Online site that contain the keyword 'Project Alpha'. The label should retain the documents for 5 years and then delete them. Which two Microsoft Purview features must be configured to achieve this? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Auto-labeling policy for SharePoint Online. An auto-labeling policy for SharePoint Online (option B) is required because it can automatically apply a retention label to documents based on conditions such as the presence of specific keywords. The sensitive info type with a keyword dictionary (option D) defines the condition by creating a custom sensitive information type that matches the exact phrase 'Project Alpha', which the auto-labeling policy then uses to trigger the label application.
