AI-102 Implement an agentic solution Practice Question
You are deploying an agentic solution that must comply with data residency requirements. The agent processes personal data from users in the European Union. Which THREE actions should you take to ensure compliance?
⚠ Common exam trap
Test-takers frequently confuse data security measures (like encryption or disabling logging) with data residency compliance, failing to recognize that only geographic placement and replication controls ensure data stays within a specific region.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Deploy the agent service in an Azure region within the European Union
Deploying the agent service in an Azure region within the European Union ensures that personal data is processed and stored in a location that meets EU data residency requirements. Azure's regional deployment guarantees that data does not leave the specified geographic boundary, which is essential for compliance with regulations like GDPR.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Deploy the agent service in an Azure region within the European Union
Why this is correct
Deploying in EU regions ensures data stays within the EU.

Disable logging for the agent to avoid storing personal data
Why it's wrong here
Disabling logging may violate audit requirements and is not a compliance best practice.
- ✓
Enable data encryption at rest using customer-managed keys
Why this is correct
Encryption at rest adds a layer of security and compliance.
- ✗
Configure the agent's data storage to use a globally redundant storage account
Why it's wrong here
Globally redundant storage may replicate data outside the EU.
