Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Implement MFA for the SaaS login portal
Why it's wrong here
MFA secures the account access but does not prevent internal users from sharing files externally.
- ✗
Enable Cisco Umbrella DNS-layer protection
Why it's wrong here
Umbrella protects against domain-based threats, not internal file-sharing violations in a SaaS app.
- ✓
Create a policy to automatically unshare files containing PII with external collaborators
Why this is correct
Cloudlock policies can be configured to detect PII and automatically remove external share links.
- ✗
Configure an API Key for the SaaS platform
Why it's wrong here
API keys are for integration, not policy remediation.
