- A
Define a custom sensitive info type in Microsoft Purview that matches your organization's PII patterns.
Custom sensitive info types can detect specific PII patterns for automatic labeling.
- B
Train users to manually apply a sensitivity label to documents containing PII.
Why wrong: Manual labeling does not meet the automatic requirement.
- C
Configure a sensitivity label to encrypt documents containing PII.
Why wrong: Encryption is a protection action, but does not automatically label.
- D
Create a retention label for documents containing PII.
Why wrong: Retention labels are for retention, not classification.
- E
Create an auto-labeling policy in Microsoft Purview that applies a sensitivity label to documents containing PII.
Auto-labeling policies automatically apply labels based on conditions.
MS-102 Manage compliance by using Microsoft Purview Practice Question
This MS-102 practice question tests your understanding of manage compliance by using microsoft purview. Match the stated requirement to the specific cloud service, access model, or configuration option — many options are valid in isolation but not for this scenario. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
Your company is implementing Microsoft Purview Information Protection to classify and protect sensitive documents. You need to ensure that all documents containing personally identifiable information (PII) are automatically labeled. Which TWO actions should you take? (Select TWO.)
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
Define a custom sensitive info type in Microsoft Purview that matches your organization's PII patterns.
Option A is correct because automatic labeling policies can apply sensitivity labels based on sensitive info types. Option D is correct because creating a sensitive info type for PII (e.g., using custom patterns) ensures the policy can detect the data. Option B is wrong because encryption is a protection action, not a labeling requirement. Option C is wrong because manual labeling does not meet the requirement for automatic labeling. Option E is wrong because retention labels are for retention, not classification.
Key principle: NAT direction and interface roles matter as much as the IP address mapping. Inside/outside designation controls which traffic is translated.

Why it's wrong here
Manual labeling does not meet the automatic requirement.
- ✗
Configure a sensitivity label to encrypt documents containing PII.
Why it's wrong here
Encryption is a protection action, but does not automatically label.
- ✗
Create a retention label for documents containing PII.
Why it's wrong here
Retention labels are for retention, not classification.
- ✓

Why this is correct
Auto-labeling policies automatically apply labels based on conditions.
Related concept
Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
Common exam traps
Common exam trap: NAT rules depend on direction and matching traffic
NAT is not only about the public address. The inside/outside interface roles and the ACL or rule that matches traffic are just as important.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
NAT questions usually test address translation, overload/PAT behaviour, static mappings and whether the right traffic is being translated. Read the interface direction and address terms carefully.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
- PAT allows many inside hosts to share one public address using ports.
- Inside local and inside global describe the private and translated addresses.
- NAT ACLs identify traffic for translation, not always security filtering.
TExam Day Tips
- Identify inside and outside interfaces first.
- Check whether the scenario needs static NAT, dynamic NAT or PAT.
- Do not confuse NAT matching ACLs with normal packet-filtering intent.
Key takeaway
NAT direction and interface roles matter as much as the IP address mapping. Inside/outside designation controls which traffic is translated.
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. NAT direction and interface roles matter as much as the IP address mapping. Inside/outside designation controls which traffic is translated. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
What to study next
Got this wrong? Here's your next step.
Review the four NAT address types (inside local, inside global, outside local, outside global), PAT port overload, and static vs dynamic NAT use cases. Then practise related MS-102 NAT questions on configuration and troubleshooting.
