Question

Contoso has published two sensitivity label policies in Microsoft Purview. Policy A targets the 'All Users' group and has a default label of 'General'. Policy B targets the 'Finance' security group, has a higher priority (listed higher in the policy list), and sets a default label of 'Confidential – Finance' while also requiring users to justify lowering a label's classification. A finance analyst who is a member of both scopes opens a new Word document. Which behavior will the analyst experience?

Accepted Answer

The new document receives 'Confidential – Finance' as its default label, and lowering the classification requires justification.

Answer

The new document receives 'General' as its default label because 'All Users' is the broadest scope and wins.

Answer

No default label is applied because the user belongs to two conflicting policies, so Purview cancels both settings.

Answer

The analyst is prompted to manually choose which policy's settings to apply each time a document is created.
