Implementing a Hybrid and Secure Messaging Platform (legacy) — Question 4

You have a Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 organization that contains 1,000 users and three Mailbox servers.
You discover an increase in spam.
You need to use an anti-spam real-time block list.
What should you do first?

Answer options

• A. Configure the junk email settings for the mailboxes.
• B. Run the Install-AntispamAgents.ps1 PowerShell script.
• C. Deploy a data loss prevention (DLP) policy.
• D. Deploy an Edge Transport server.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as running the Install-AntispamAgents.ps1 PowerShell script is necessary to install the anti-spam agents required for the real-time block list functionality in Exchange. Options A, C, and D do not directly address the need for real-time spam filtering and thus would not be effective in this scenario.
