Microsoft 365 Fundamentals Practice Test (MS-900)

Microsoft Viva Insights offers personalized insights to users to help them improve productivity and work-life balance. It analyzes work patterns and provides recommendations, all while preserving user privacy.

Microsoft 365 Admin Center Reports and ** Microsoft Teams Analytics & Reports** are more focused on administrative reporting and do not provide personalized recommendations to individual users.

Windows Analytics is a tool for monitoring device health and updates, not for providing personalized productivity insights.

Adding the task management app as a tab in Teams channels enables users to access and interact with the app's features directly within Teams. This method leverages Teams' capability to host collaborative apps, providing a seamless user experience. Using email notifications or sharing app links does not offer direct integration, and scheduling meetings does not incorporate the app into Teams.

This is True.

Microsoft Entra ID includes self-service password reset (SSPR) features, enabling users to securely reset their own passwords. This reduces the dependency on IT support for password issues and enhances security by incorporating verification methods during the reset process.

Creating a service request in the Microsoft 365 admin center is the correct method to directly engage Microsoft support for assistance with issues unresolved by self-help resources. This approach ensures that your case is handled by support engineers who can provide targeted help. Posting on social media is not a formal support channel and may not result in timely or professional assistance. Waiting without action does not address the issue proactively, and reinstalling Office applications is unlikely to solve mailbox access problems caused by service-related issues.

Implement staged rollouts by grouping devices into different update phases - Staged rollouts involve deploying updates to different sets of users or devices in phases, allowing IT to monitor for issues in each phase before proceeding to the next group. This approach reduces the risk of widespread issues and enables quick identification and resolution of potential problems before they affect the entire organization.

Update all devices simultaneously to maintain uniformity - Updating all devices simultaneously may seem efficient, but it increases the risk of widespread issues if an update has unexpected bugs or compatibility problems. This approach is not recommended for large enterprises due to the higher risk of impacting many users at once.

Turn off automatic updates and rely on manual installations - Disabling automatic updates and relying on manual installations would significantly delay updates and increase administrative effort. It may also leave devices vulnerable to security threats due to inconsistent or delayed patching.

Postpone updates to avoid potential problems - Postponing updates might temporarily reduce risks but can lead to security vulnerabilities and compliance issues. Progressive, staged deployment is a better way to mitigate risks without compromising security.

Microsoft Entra ID provides comprehensive identity and access management capabilities for Microsoft 365, including Multifactor Authentication (MFA), Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR), and conditional access policies. These features enable organizations to enhance security by controlling how users authenticate and access resources.

Microsoft Defender for Identity focuses on detecting and investigating advanced threats and identity-related attacks but does not provide identity management features.

Microsoft Endpoint Manager manages devices and applications, not user identities.

Microsoft Purview deals with compliance, risk, and data governance rather than identity and access management.

The administrator should use the 'New service request' option in the Microsoft 365 admin center to reach out to Microsoft for technical assistance. This allows them to submit the issue directly to Microsoft support, ensuring it is tracked and addressed promptly.

Calling the Microsoft sales hotline to report the issue is not suitable for technical issues and may not connect the administrator with the proper support channel.

Sending a direct message to Microsoft support via social media is not an official support method and may not be secure or effective.

Waiting for the next software update to see if the issue resolves itself is not a proactive approach and will delay resolution, furthermore it does not guarantee the issue will be fixed.

Microsoft Excel is specifically designed for data analysis, numerical calculations, and creating charts and graphs to visualize data trends. It offers powerful tools for managing and interpreting large datasets.

Microsoft Word is intended for word processing and document creation.

Microsoft PowerPoint is used for creating presentations.

Microsoft OneNote is a digital note-taking app.

Microsoft OneNote is designed for collaborative information gathering, allowing multiple users to work together in real-time on a shared workspace. It supports text, drawings, and multimedia content, making it ideal for flexible collaboration. Microsoft Word is primarily for document creation, Excel is for spreadsheets and data analysis, and PowerPoint is for creating presentations. While these apps support some collaborative features, they are not as flexible for real-time, multimedia-rich collaboration as OneNote.

The Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel provides feature updates twice a year, giving organizations extended time to test and deploy new features while reducing disruptions. It still delivers monthly security updates to ensure devices remain protected.

The Current Channel and Monthly Enterprise Channel provide more frequent feature updates, which may not align with the company's need for reduced update frequency.

The Beta Channel offers pre-release features for evaluation and isn't intended for production environments.

The Microsoft 365 Admin Center is the primary portal for IT administrators to manage user accounts, assign licenses, configure email settings, and perform other administrative tasks within the Microsoft 365 environment. This is the appropriate portal for adding a new user, assigning a license, and setting up email.

The Microsoft 365 User Portal is where individual users access their own Microsoft 365 apps and services, such as Outlook, OneDrive, and Teams. It does not provide administrative features for managing user accounts or configuring licenses and email settings.

The Microsoft Security Center is focused on security management and monitoring within Microsoft 365. While useful for security tasks, it does not provide tools for user account management, license assignment, or email configuration.

The Microsoft Teams Admin Center is specifically for managing settings and configurations related to Microsoft Teams. It does not cover user account creation, license management, or general email settings.

The Microsoft 365 User Portal is where individual users can access their personal email, OneDrive documents, and install Office apps on their devices. This portal is designed for end users to access their personal productivity tools and files.

The Microsoft 365 Admin Center is used by IT administrators to manage user accounts, licenses, and organizational settings. It is not intended for individual users to access their personal email or documents.

Microsoft Endpoint Manager is used by IT administrators to manage devices, deploy applications, and enforce security policies. It does not provide personal access to email, documents, or Office app installations.

The Microsoft Teams Admin Center is used to manage Teams settings, policies, and configurations for an organization. It is not meant for individual users to access their personal email or Office applications.

Conditional Access in Microsoft Entra ID allows administrators to create and enforce policies that control access to resources based on specific conditions such as sign-in risk, user location, device compliance, and more. By implementing Conditional Access policies, you can dynamically respond to changing risks and ensure that access to sensitive data is appropriately secured.

Identity Protection helps detect and remediate identity-based risks but doesn't directly enforce access policies. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) requires additional verification methods during sign-in but doesn't allow for conditional enforcement based on context. Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) enables users to reset their passwords without administrator intervention but doesn't control access conditions.

Setting up deployment rings to deliver updates in phases is the best strategy. Deployment rings allow the IT administrator to stagger the rollout of Windows updates to different groups within the organization. This phased approach helps identify and address any issues early on in a smaller group before deploying updates more widely, thereby minimizing potential disruptions.

Disabling automatic updates and installing updates manually is inefficient and can lead to inconsistencies and security vulnerabilities due to delayed updates. It doesn't provide a structured method for testing updates prior to full deployment.

Enrolling user devices in the Windows Insider Program exposes them to pre-release versions of Windows that may be unstable and are intended for testing purposes, not for minimizing disruptions in a production environment.

Configuring devices to receive updates according to the organization's schedule without a phased rollout does not allow for early detection of issues in a controlled subset of devices. If problems occur with the updates, the entire organization could be affected simultaneously, which does not align with the goal of minimizing disruptions.

Installing apps from the Teams App Store allows users to add new collaborative functionalities directly within Microsoft Teams. This integration enhances productivity by bringing additional tools and services into the Teams environment. Creating new channels organizes content but doesn't add functionalities. Scheduling meetings facilitates communication but doesn't enhance features. Changing status messages is a personal setting and doesn't affect team collaboration tools.
