Exam SC-401 topic 2 question 11 discussion

When a retention policy is locked: - No one can disable the policy or delete it - Locations can be added but not removed - You can extend the retention period but not decrease it

A. Add locations to the policy Correct – You can add locations to a locked retention policy because this action increases the scope of retention, which is permitted. B. Delete the policy Incorrect – You cannot delete a retention policy that has a preservation lock applied. The lock is intended to make the policy immutable in terms of data protection. C. Remove locations from the policy Incorrect – Removing locations reduces the scope of retention, which is disallowed under a preservation lock. D. Decrease the retention period of the policy Incorrect – You cannot decrease the retention period as it would reduce the time items are kept, violating the intent of the preservation lock. E. Disable the policy Incorrect – Disabling the policy would stop enforcement, which is also not permitted once a preservation lock is in place. F. Increase the retention period of the policy Correct – You can increase the retention period because this retains data for longer, which is allowed under a preservation lock.
