A Microsoft 365 administrator is tasked with ensuring that specific communications within Microsoft Teams, such as those containing financial transaction details, are automatically flagged for review by the compliance department. The goal is to detect potential violations of corporate policy or regulatory requirements. Which Microsoft 365 compliance solution should the administrator implement?

  1. AMicrosoft Purview Communication Compliance
  2. BMicrosoft Purview Information Barriers
  3. CMicrosoft Purview eDiscovery
  4. DMicrosoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A. Microsoft Purview Communication Compliance

Microsoft Purview Communication Compliance allows organizations to detect, capture, and act on inappropriate messages in Microsoft Teams, Exchange, and other communication channels, using policies to identify sensitive content and flag it for review by designated compliance officers.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Information Barriers prevent specific groups from communicating with each other, not for flagging content within allowed communications.
  • C. eDiscovery is for identifying and delivering electronic information in legal cases, not for proactive flagging of inappropriate communications.
  • D. DLP prevents sensitive data from being shared outside the organization or with unauthorized internal users but is less focused on the 'inappropriate communication' aspect and review workflow compared to Communication Compliance.
