Full question →mediummultiple choiceObjective-mapped
A company has a policy that prohibits employees from sharing confidential customer data with unauthorized parties. The compliance team needs to detect patterns of unusual user activity that may indicate insider data theft, such as downloading large volumes of data to a personal device or emailing sensitive files to external recipients. They also want to investigate the activity and take remediation actions like generating a case for litigation or notifying the user's manager. 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 Insider Risk Management
Insider Risk Management detects risky user patterns and provides investigation and remediation workflows.
B
Distractor review
Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention
DLP prevents accidental sharing of sensitive data based on policies but does not detect behavioral patterns or provide case management.
C
Distractor review
Microsoft Purview Audit
Audit logs record user activity but lack analytics, pattern detection, and case management.
D
Distractor review
Microsoft Purview eDiscovery
eDiscovery is for legal holds and content search and export, not for proactive detection of risky activity.
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.

FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this SC-900 question test?
Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management — Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management uses predefined and customizable policies to detect, investigate, and act on risky user activities related to data theft, data leaks, and security policy violations. It provides behavioral analytics and a workflow for cases and notifications. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is policy-based and prevents accidental sharing but does not focus on behavioral indicators. Audit logs provide raw event data without analytics or remediation workflows. eDiscovery is used for legal holds and content searches, not for detecting risky behavior.
