MS-900 Timed Practice Test 3 — 10 Questions

Question 1

During requirements gathering, an IT manager says the organization must manage users, licenses, billing, and tenant settings. Microsoft 365 licensing, admin, or support concept is most relevant?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft 365 admin center. The Microsoft 365 admin center is the centralized web portal for managing users, licenses, billing, and tenant-wide settings. It provides administrators with a single pane of glass to perform tasks such as adding or removing users, assigning licenses, viewing invoices, and configuring tenant-level policies. This directly matches the IT manager's stated requirements for managing users, licenses, billing, and tenant settings.

Question 2

Which of the following are key characteristics of cloud computing as defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)? (Choose all that apply. There are four correct answers.)

Accepted Answer

Rapid elasticity. The NIST SP 800-145 definition identifies five essential characteristics of cloud computing: on-demand self-service, broad network access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, and measured service. On-demand self-service allows users to provision computing capabilities automatically without requiring human interaction with each service provider. Broad network access means capabilities are available over the network and accessed through standard mechanisms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, workstations). Resource pooling enables the provider's computing resources to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to consumer demand. Rapid elasticity allows capabilities to be elastically provisioned and released, in some cases automatically, to scale rapidly outward and inward commensurate with demand.

Question 4

A project team needs to collaborate on Teams channel conversations and meetings and co-author related Office files. Which two Microsoft 365 capabilities are most relevant?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft Teams. Microsoft Teams is the correct answer because it provides the central hub for channel conversations, meetings, and real-time collaboration.

Question 5

During requirements gathering, an IT manager says the organization must manage users, licenses, billing, and tenant settings. Microsoft 365 licensing, admin, or support concept is most relevant?

10 minute time limit — choose an answer to begin.

Accepted Answer

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The IT manager's requirement is to identify the service model where the customer manages the most layers. In Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), the cloud provider manages only the physical infrastructure (servers, storage, networking), while the customer is responsible for managing the operating system, middleware, runtime, data, and applications. This gives the customer the highest degree of control and management responsibility compared to PaaS or SaaS.

Answer

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

Answer

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Answer

Hybrid cloud

Question 6

A non-profit organization with 15 employees needs business-grade email, desktop versions of Office apps, and 1 TB of cloud storage per user. They are eligible for Microsoft's non-profit program. Which plan provides these features at the lowest cost?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft 365 Business Standard for Nonprofits. Microsoft 365 Business Standard for Nonprofits is the correct choice because it includes business-grade email (Exchange Online), desktop versions of Office apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.), and 1 TB of OneDrive cloud storage per user, all at a significantly reduced cost (or free for qualifying organizations) under the nonprofit program. Business Basic only provides web and mobile Office apps, not desktop versions, and E3/Enterprise plans are more expensive and include advanced security and compliance features not required by this 15-employee organization.

Microsoft 365 Enterprise for Nonprofits

Question 7

A business stakeholder asks how Microsoft 365 can help them allow sign-in using biometrics or FIDO2 security keys. Microsoft security, identity, or compliance capability should it use?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft Entra ID passwordless authentication. Microsoft Entra ID passwordless authentication (Option B) is the correct capability because it directly supports sign-in using biometrics (Windows Hello, Microsoft Authenticator) and FIDO2 security keys. This feature eliminates the need for passwords by leveraging public-key cryptography and the WebAuthn standard, aligning with the stakeholder's request for passwordless sign-in methods.

Question 8

You are the compliance officer for Fabrikam, a medium-sized company with 500 users on Microsoft 365 Business Premium. Fabrikam must comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). The legal team has identified that they need to be able to respond to consumer requests to delete personal data within 45 days. They also need to ensure that personal data is not retained longer than necessary. You have been asked to configure Microsoft Purview to meet these requirements. Specifically, you need to search for and delete personal data when a deletion request is received, and set up a data retention policy to automatically delete personal data after 2 years. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Use Content Search to find personal data, then use eDiscovery to delete it for deletion requests. Create a retention policy with a retention period of 2 years for all SharePoint sites and OneDrive accounts.. To delete personal data for a specific user, you need to use Content Search to find the data and then eDiscovery to delete it. A retention policy can be set to automatically delete data after 2 years. Option A is incorrect because a retention label is for manual application, not automatic deletion. Option C is incorrect because DLP does not delete data. Option D is incorrect because auto-labeling does not delete data.

Answer

Implement auto-labeling to label personal data and configure a retention label to delete after 2 years.

Answer

Create a retention label that deletes data after 2 years and apply it manually to all documents containing personal data.

Answer

Configure a DLP policy to block sharing of personal data and set a retention policy for 2 years.
