A compliance officer needs to ensure that all documents in a SharePoint Online library are automatically labeled with a 'Confidential' sensitivity label if they contain at least one of a predefined list of sensitive information types such as credit card numbers or social security numbers. Users should be able to override the label with a business justification. Which Microsoft Purview feature should the officer 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
Sensitivity label with manual classification
Manual classification requires users to apply the label themselves, not automatic.
B
Best answer
Auto-labeling policy for SharePoint Online
Auto-labeling policies automatically apply sensitivity labels based on conditions like sensitive info types, and allow override with justification.
C
Distractor review
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy
DLP policies detect and prevent sharing of sensitive information but do not automatically apply labels.
D
Distractor review
Retention label policy
Retention labels manage retention and disposal, not sensitivity classification.
