Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Sign in to Microsoft Entra ID, Navigate to Microsoft Entra ID > Security > Conditional Access, Create new policy, Set conditions (users/groups, cloud apps, conditions), Set access controls, Enable policy.
Why this is correct
This order is correct because you must first authenticate, then access the Conditional Access blade, create a policy, define the conditions that trigger the policy, configure the controls to enforce, and finally enable the policy to take effect.
- ✗
Sign in to Microsoft Entra ID, Navigate to Conditional Access, Create new policy, Enable policy, Set conditions, Set controls.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot enable the policy before setting conditions and controls. The policy would be enabled without any defined rules, making it ineffective or potentially blocking all access.
- ✗
Sign in to Microsoft Entra ID, Navigate to Conditional Access, Set conditions, Create new policy, Set controls, Enable policy.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because conditions must be configured within the policy. You cannot set conditions before creating the policy as they are properties of the policy itself.
- ✗
Navigate to Conditional Access, Sign in to Microsoft Entra ID, Create new policy, Set conditions, Set controls, Enable policy.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must sign in to Microsoft Entra ID first to gain access. Navigating to Conditional Access without signing in would result in a login prompt, disrupting the sequence.
