Manage applications →mediumMultiple ChoiceObjective-mapped

Quick Answer

The answer is the `cutCopyAllowed` and `pasteAllowed` settings set to false. These two Boolean properties directly control the clipboard actions within a managed app on Windows, and when both are set to false, they block any copy or paste operation, which is exactly why the user cannot transfer data. In the context of the MD-102 exam, this scenario tests your ability to read an App Protection Policy JSON and distinguish between data transfer settings like `orgRestriction`, which governs app-to-app sharing, and the specific clipboard controls. A common trap is confusing `orgRestriction` with copy/paste permissions, but remember that `orgRestriction` only limits which other managed apps can receive data, not the act of copying itself. For a quick memory tip, think of "Cut and Paste" as the scissors and glue—if both are set to false, you cannot cut or glue any content.

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

cutCopyAllowed and pasteAllowed are set to false

Option C is correct. The 'cutCopyAllowed' and 'pasteAllowed' settings are both set to false, preventing copy/paste from managed apps. Option A is wrong because 'orgRestriction' controls data transfer to other apps, not copy/paste. Option B is wrong because encryptAppData is about encryption, not copy/paste. Option D is wrong because pin requirement does not affect copy/paste.

Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✗

    encryptAppData is set to true

    Why it's wrong here

    Encrypts data, does not prevent copy.

    Why this is correct

    Directly disables copy and paste.

    Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.

  • ✗

    orgRestriction is set to true

    Why it's wrong here

    Restricts data transfer to org apps, not copy/paste.

  • ✗

    requirePin is set to true

    Why it's wrong here

    PIN requirement does not affect copy/paste.

Common exam traps

Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword

Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.

Detailed technical explanation

How to think about this question

This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
  • Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
  • Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
  • Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.

TExam Day Tips

  • Underline the problem statement mentally.
  • Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
  • Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.

Key takeaway

Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Real-world example

How this comes up in practice

A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
