Summary – Implementing Microsoft Purview data loss prevention (DLP)

In this chapter, you learned about the capabilities of Microsoft DLP. Building on the knowledge you previously gained about classifiers such as sensitive information types, DLP policies can be used to detect sensitive information as it moves throughout your organization.

DLP policies can target workloads such as Exchange Online or SharePoint as well as endpoint devices such as on-premises file servers and client computers. Each layer helps provide additional protection against data leakage and compromise.

You also learned about the alerting and troubleshooting tools available in the platform, including the DLP Alerts dashboard and the Microsoft 365 DefenderIncidents dashboard, and the capabilities of incident management to further remediate issues with users and data.

For the first 3 attempts, don’t worry about the time limit.

ATTEMPT 1

The first time, aim for at least 40%. Look at the answers you got wrong and read the relevant sections in the chapter again to fix your learning gaps.

ATTEMPT 2

The second time, aim for at least 60%. Look at the answers you got wrong and read the relevant sections in the chapter again to fix any remaining learning gaps.

ATTEMPT 3

The third time, aim for at least 75%. Once you score 75% or more, you start working on your timing.

Tip You may take more than 3 attempts to reach 75%. That’s okay. Just review the relevant sections in the chapter till you get there.

Working On Timing

Target: Your aim is to keep the score the same while trying to answer these questions as quickly as possible. Here’s an example of how your next attempts should look like:

Note The time limits shown in the above table are just examples. Set your own time limits with each attempt based on the time limit of the quiz on the website.

With each new attempt, your score should stay above 75% while your time taken to complete should decrease. Repeat as many attempts as you want till you feel confident dealing with the time pressure.
