Need a hint?

Evaluate each option independently against the scenario evidence instead of treating the list as one decision.

Show another hint

Choose only options that directly satisfy the prompt; being generally true is not enough.

02
ordering

Order the remaining rollout steps.

4 pts

Drag the rows or use the arrow buttons to reorder.

  1. 1 Switch the policy from Report-only to On for a pilot group of administrators
  2. 2 Apply the method registrations and exclusions identified above
  3. 3 Review a further week of report-only results for unexpected blocks
  4. 4 Extend the assignment to all administrators after monitoring the pilot
Need a hint?

Identify the prerequisite that must happen first and the verification or documentation that belongs last.

Show another hint

For the middle steps, ask what must already be true before each action can safely happen.

03
matching

Match each signal or control to what it evaluates.

3 pts
Need a hint?
