Full question →hardmultiple choiceObjective-mapped
A financial services company is subject to regulations that require monitoring of employee communications for potential market manipulation. The compliance team needs to create policies that automatically detect messages containing phrases like 'insider info' or 'confidential trade' in Microsoft Teams chats and Exchange Online emails. Detected messages should be routed to designated reviewers for investigation, and the company wants a built-in Microsoft Purview solution to handle this process. Which Microsoft Purview solution should they use?
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
Best answer
Microsoft Purview Communication Compliance
Communication Compliance enables organizations to detect policy violations in communications (e.g., insider trading) by scanning for specific phrases and assigning them to reviewers.
B
Distractor review
Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management
Insider Risk Management focuses on detecting risky user behavior (e.g., data exfiltration) based on user activities, not on scanning message content for predefined keywords.
C
Distractor review
Microsoft Purview Information Protection
Information Protection is about classifying and protecting sensitive data (e.g., with sensitivity labels and encryption). It does not automatically detect and route communication violations.
D
Distractor review
Microsoft Purview Data Lifecycle Management
Data Lifecycle Management handles retention policies and records management. It does not include communication monitoring for policy violations.
Common exam trap
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.
Technical deep dive
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.
