I’m pretty confident that A is the correct option since it relates directly to authorized applications for ransomware protection.

I’m leaning towards B because it seems like it would make sense to ignore certain files, but I could be mixing it up with another topic.

I remember practicing a similar question about file monitoring, and I feel like Default Policies could be the right choice here.

I think the answer might be A, but I'm not completely sure if that's the right setting for adding file extensions.

The way I see it, the Authorized Applications (Ransomware Protection) setting is the most likely answer here. That's where you can specify which file extensions to monitor and protect against ransomware.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is it possible that the "Files to be Ignored Always" setting could be used to add the file extension? I'll have to review the material again.

I'm a bit confused on the differences between the redo log, rollback log, and binary log. I'll need to review those concepts before answering.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the registry stores a lot of system configuration, but I can't quite remember where the file extension mappings are kept. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I feel pretty confident that the Logic App to Azure Blob storage is the way to go here. That would allow you to quickly ingest the emails and then have other processes handle them, without slowing down the initial response time.

Who needs EPM when you can just use a trusty roll of duct tape to protect your files? Just tape them shut and call it a day!

Nah, I'm going with B. Files to be Ignored Always. That way, the file extension will be completely off the radar, and the ransomware won't even know it's there!
