- The Service health incident history
- The Microsoft 365 Apps usage report
Show answer
Correct answer: A. Data access governance (DAG) reports in SharePoint Advanced Management list sites with sharing links, EEEU permissions or oversharing so you can fix them.

- Restricted access control on the site
- A sensitivity label with encryption for every file
- Restricted content discovery on the site
Show answer
