Just the same as the free demo, we have provided three kinds of versions of our SC-401 preparation exam, among which the PDF version is the most popular one. It is understandable that many people give their priority to use paper-based materials rather than learning on computers, and it is quite clear that the PDF version is convenient for our customers to read and print the contents in our SC-401 Study Guide. After printing, you not only can bring the study materials with you wherever you go, but also can make notes on the paper at your liberty. Do not wait and hesitate any longer, your time is precious!
NEW QUESTION # 142
You have a Microsoft 365 subscription. Auditing is enabled.
A user named User1 is a member of a dynamic security group named Group1.
You discover that User1 is no longer a member of Group1.
You need to search the audit log to identify why User1 was removed from Group1.
Which two activities should you use in the search? To answer, select the appropriate activities in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer:
Explanation:
Explanation:
Step 1 - Scenario
A user named User1 was a member of a dynamic security group (Group1).
User1 is no longer a member of that group.
You need to determine why User1 was removed by searching the audit log.
Step 2 - How group membership changes are logged in Microsoft 365 audit logs Microsoft 365 audit logs record group membership activities in Azure AD. The most relevant activities for a user disappearing from a group are:
Removed member from group - Directly indicates that a user was removed from a group.
Updated group - Logged when group properties or membership rules (for dynamic groups) are modified. If Group1 is a dynamic group, changes to membership rules could have caused User1 to no longer qualify, and this would appear as an Updated group event.
Step 3 - Why not other options
Deleted user / Deleted group: Would mean the entire user or group object was deleted, not just removal.
Changed user password, Reset user password, Set license properties, Changed user license: These are account- related, not group membership-related.
Added member to group: The opposite action.
Step 4 - Microsoft Reference
From Microsoft documentation:
Audit logs include events such as when a member is added or removed from a group, and when group properties or membership rules are updated.
Reference: Search the audit log in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal
NEW QUESTION # 143
HOTSPOT
You are reviewing policies for the SharePoint Online environment.
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer:
Explanation:
Explanation:
Understanding Site4's Retention Policies:
# Site4RetentionPolicy1 deletes items older than 2 years from creation. If a file was created on January 1,
2021, it would be deleted after January 1, 2023.
# Site4RetentionPolicy2 retains files for 4 years from creation. If a file was created on January 1, 2021, it will be kept until January 1, 2025, but not deleted after that (policy states "Do nothing").
Statement 1 - Yes, because Site4RetentionPolicy2 ensures files are retained for 4 years.
Statement 2 - Yes, because Site4RetentionPolicy2 retains the file for 4 years (until January 1, 2025).
Statement 3 - No, because retention is only for 4 years (until January 1, 2025). After that, the policy does
"nothing," meaning the file is no longer recoverable after that period.

NEW QUESTION # 144
You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscriptions.
You deploy Microsoft Purview Data Security Posture Management for Al (DSPM for Al).
You need to edit the default policies created as part of the deployment.
Which two Microsoft Purview solutions should you use? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer: E,G
Explanation:
Step 1 - Understand the feature
The scenario is about Microsoft Purview Data Security Posture Management for AI (DSPM for AI), a capability in Microsoft Purview that helps:
* Discover sensitive data across AI environments (including Copilot for Microsoft 365).
* Assess data exposure risks.
* Apply policies for data classification and protection.
When you deploy DSPM for AI, Microsoft Purview automatically creates default policies to classify and protect sensitive content.
Step 2 - Which solutions are used to edit these policies?
* DSPM for AI (D) # This is the core solution where the default DSPM policies are deployed and visible. To edit or manage them, you must use the DSPM for AI blade in Microsoft Purview.
* Information Protection (B) # DSPM relies on Microsoft Information Protection (MIP), specifically sensitivity labels and sensitive information types. These labels and SITs are part of Purview Information Protection. Editing classification rules (e.g., sensitivity labels, sensitive info types, trainable classifiers) requires Information Protection.
# Reference:
* Microsoft Purview Data Security Posture Management for AI (DSPM for AI)
* Overview of sensitivity labels in Microsoft Purview Information Protection Step 3 - Why not the others?
* A. Insider Risk Management # Detects risky insider activities (data theft, sabotage). Not used to configure DSPM policies.
* C. Compliance Manager # Provides compliance score and assessments, but does not configure DSPM policies.
* E. Information Barriers # Used to restrict communication between groups of users. Not related to DSPM.
* F. Data Lifecycle Management # Manages retention and deletion of data. Not related to DSPM for AI policy editing.
* G. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) # Protects sensitive data from being shared in apps/services, but DSPM's default policies are not edited here.
NEW QUESTION # 145
You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription.
You plan to implement insider risk management for users that manage sensitive data associated with a project.
You need to create a protection policy for the users. The solution must meet the following requirements:
*Minimize the impact on users who are NOT part of the project.
*Minimize administrative effort.
What should you do first?
Answer: A
Explanation:
C From the Microsoft Entra admin center create a User risk policy
D From the Microsoft Purview portal create a priority user group
Explanation:
To implement insider risk management for users managing sensitive project data while minimizing the impact on other users and reducing administrative effort, you should first create a security group in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).
Security groups allow you to scope insider risk management policies to specific users instead of applying policies to all users, which helps in minimizing unnecessary alerts and reducing administrative overhead. After creating the security group, you can assign this group to a Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management policy, ensuring that only project-related users are affected.
NEW QUESTION # 146
Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.
After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.
You have a Microsoft 365 tenant and 500 computers that run Windows 11. The computers are onboarded to Microsoft Purview.
You discover that a third-party application named Tailspin_scanner.exe accessed protected sensitive information on multiple computers. Tailspin_scanner.exe is installed locally on the computers.
You need to block Tailspin_scanner.exe from accessing sensitive documents without preventing the application from accessing other documents.
Solution: From the Microsoft 365 Endpoint data loss prevention (Endpoint DLP) settings, you add a folder path to the file path exclusions.
Does this meet the goal?
Answer: B
Explanation:
Adding a folder path to the file path exclusions in Microsoft 365 Endpoint DLP does not prevent Tailspin_scanner.exe from accessing protected sensitive information. Instead, it would exclude those files from DLP protection, which is not the intended outcome.
To block Tailspin_scanner.exe from accessing sensitive documents while allowing it to access other files, the correct solution is to use Microsoft Purview Endpoint Data Loss Prevention (Endpoint DLP) and add Tailspin_scanner.exe to the Restricted Apps list.
Endpoint DLP allows you to block specific applications from accessing sensitive files while keeping general access available. Restricted Apps List in Endpoint DLP ensures that Tailspin_scanner.exe cannot open, copy, or process protected documents, but it can still function normally for non-sensitive content.
