Exam MS-500 topic 4 question 22 discussion

It is litigation hold so that they CAN review the mailbox and its deleted contents. Yes, an eDiscovery case could instill a hold and perform the search, but this just wants to lay down the framework for doing searches *later*

C is correct!

Correct answer. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/security-and-compliance/in-place-and-litigation-holds Litigation Hold places all mailbox content on hold. In-Place Hold provides granular hold capability based on query parameters and the ability to place multiple holds. Notes - 1. When a mailbox is placed on one or more In-Place Holds and on Litigation Hold (without a duration period) at the same time, all items are held indefinitely or until the holds are removed. 2. When you place a mailbox on In-Place Hold or Litigation Hold, the hold is placed on both the primary and the archive mailbox.

just another bad formed question... you need first to place it on hold and after that to do a content search or eDiscovery case could do both but Microsoft...

Although it is not an option the correct way to do this would be via retention policies. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/retention-policies?view=o365-worldwide
