Microsoft 365 Mobility and Security (legacy) — Question 98

Your company has a Microsoft 365 subscription.
You implement sensitivity labels for your company.
You need to automatically protect email messages that contain the word Confidential in the subject line.
What should you create?

Answer options

• A. a SecOps mailbox from the Microsoft 365 Defender portal
• B. a sharing policy from the Exchange admin center
• C. a mail flow rule from the Exchange admin center
• D. a data loss prevention (DLP) policy from the Microsoft 365 compliance center

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as a mail flow rule can be configured to apply specific actions to emails that meet certain criteria, such as containing the word 'Confidential' in the subject line. Options A and B do not provide the necessary functionality for email protection based on subject content, and option D, while related to data protection, is more focused on preventing data loss rather than automatically protecting specific email messages.
