MS-102 Practice Question: Implement and manage Microsoft Entra identity and access
Your company uses Microsoft Entra ID P2. You need to configure Identity Protection to automatically remediate high-risk users. Which THREE actions can you configure?
⚠ Common exam trap
Test-takers frequently confuse notification actions (like email) with automated remediation actions, or assume that MFA re-registration is a risk-based remediation option when it is actually a separate Conditional Access control for MFA lifecycle management.
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
✓
Require password change
Identity Protection's automated remediation for high-risk users can be configured to require a password change as a risk-based policy action. This forces the user to reset their password, which invalidates any compromised credentials and reduces the risk level. In Microsoft Entra ID P2, this is a native remediation action available in Conditional Access policies integrated with Identity Protection.
