Administering Windows Server Hybrid Core Infrastructure (AZ-800) Practice

If an administrator wants to automatically encrypt a file based on its classification property, which feature of FSRM should they use?

1. File Screening Management

2. File management tasks

3. File Classification Infrastructure

4. File auditing

The correct answer is: File management tasks

To achieve automatic encryption of files based on their classification properties, the appropriate choice is the File Classification Infrastructure. This feature enables administrators to classify files according to specific properties and characteristics, and it can trigger actions, such as encryption, based on those classifications. The File Classification Infrastructure integrates with File Server Resource Manager (FSRM) and allows for the automatic application of policies based on metadata assigned to files. When files are classified, they can be manipulated according to the rules set forth, including the execution of file management tasks like encryption. While file management tasks are a part of the overall framework for managing and applying actions to classified files, the actual classification mechanism that enables automatic processes like encryption relies on the capabilities of the File Classification Infrastructure. This distinction is important because merely having tasks to manage files does not automatically imply that those tasks can be triggered by file classifications.
