A company uses Azure AD Identity Protection. The security team wants to automatically block users from signing in when the user risk level is 'High'. Which policy should they configure?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Distractor review
Conditional Access policy with user risk condition
While possible, the question asks for the policy to configure; the dedicated User risk policy in Identity Protection is more straightforward.
B
Distractor review
Sign-in risk policy
Sign-in risk policy addresses sign-in risks (like anonymous IP), not user risk.
C
Best answer
User risk policy
The User risk policy in Identity Protection can block sign-in when user risk is high.
D
Distractor review
MFA registration policy
MFA registration policy requires users to register for MFA but does not block sign-ins based on risk.
Common exam trap
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.
Technical deep dive
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.

FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this MS-102 question test?
Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: User risk policy — Azure AD Identity Protection has two risk policies: User risk policy (for user-level risk) and Sign-in risk policy (for sign-in-level risk). To block sign-ins based on high user risk, the User risk policy should be set to 'Block sign-in' or 'Require password change' with appropriate actions. The MFA registration policy is for requiring MFA registration. A Conditional Access policy can also use user risk, but the dedicated Identity Protection User risk policy is the direct answer.
