Question
You have a Microsoft 365 subscription that uses Microsoft Defender for Office 365.
You have Microsoft SharePoint Online sites that contain sensitive documents. The documents contain customer account numbers that each consists of 32 alphanumeric characters.
You need to create a data loss prevention (DLP) policy to protect the sensitive documents.
What should you use to detect which documents are sensitive?
- A. SharePoint search
- B. a hunting query in Microsoft 365 Defender
- C. Azure Information Protection
- D. RegEx pattern matching Correct
Explanation
A DLP policy detects sensitive content through sensitive information types, and a custom sensitive information type for a 32-character alphanumeric account number is defined with a regular expression pattern. Azure Information Protection is a labeling and protection solution; it does not by itself define how to recognize this custom number format. SharePoint search and advanced hunting queries are not detection mechanisms that a DLP policy uses.
