Why each option

Enabling external access in the Microsoft 365 admin portal does not expose data to anonymous users; instead, it allows authenticated external users to receive sharing invitations for specific content.

ANo change needed.

The original statement is incorrect because enabling external access does not make data available to anonymous users; it requires invitation-based sharing with authenticated external recipients.

Bthe Everyone group is applied to all shares with full control

Applying the Everyone group with full control describes a broad, unmanaged permission model not associated with the Microsoft 365 external sharing configuration process.

Cyou must configure Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)

Configuring AD FS is related to federated identity and single sign-on scenarios, not a requirement for enabling basic external sharing in the Microsoft 365 admin portal.

Dusers can send sharing invitations for specific contentCorrect

When external sharing is enabled in the Microsoft 365 admin portal, authenticated external users can be sent sharing invitations granting them access to specific content only. This is a controlled, per-item sharing model requiring the recipient to sign in or verify identity, not an open anonymous access model.
