Exhibit

MS-900 question #368 exhibit

Answer Area

  • The company should implement
    Azure Information Protection P1Azure Information Protection P2Microsoft 365 E3

Explanation

Azure Information Protection P2 is the correct choice because it provides automatic classification and labeling, which is a key requirement, while being the most cost-effective solution among the options that meet this need.

Approach. The user must select "Azure Information Protection P2" from the provided dropdown list.

Common mistakes.

  • common_mistake. Selecting 'Azure Information Protection P1' or 'Microsoft 365 E3'.
  • explanation. Azure Information Protection P1 is incorrect because it only provides manual classification, labeling, and protection, failing to meet the requirement for automatic application. Microsoft 365 E3 is incorrect because, although it's a broader suite, its integrated information protection features are equivalent to AIP P1, which does not include automatic classification. To achieve automatic classification with an E3 license, an additional AIP P2 license or an upgrade to E5 would be necessary, making it a more expensive option than simply implementing AIP P2 to meet the specific need. Thus, neither P1 nor E3 satisfies the automatic classification requirement cost-effectively.

Concept tested. This question tests the candidate's knowledge of Azure Information Protection (AIP) licensing tiers (P1 vs. P2), their respective feature sets (specifically manual vs. automatic classification and labeling), and how these licenses relate to broader Microsoft 365 subscription plans. It assesses the ability to choose the appropriate service level based on specific technical requirements and cost considerations.
