Your security team has identified that an attacker could intercept and modify SMB traffic between clients and a file server. You need to ensure that SMB packets are authenticated to prevent tampering, but you are concerned about performance impact on older clients. What should you configure?

Enable SMB compression on the file server and require it for all clients.

Enable SMB encryption on the file server and require it for all clients.

Disable SMB 1.0 and enable SMB 2.0 only.

Enable SMB signing on the file server and require it for all clients.

What is the purpose of SMB Encryption?

To compress SMB data to reduce bandwidth usage

To authenticate users accessing the share

To prevent users from copying files from the share

To encrypt SMB data in transit to protect it from eavesdropping

What is the purpose of DFS Namespaces?

To replicate files between servers

To limit the amount of storage used by users

To provide a unified folder structure that combines shared folders from multiple servers

Your company has remote users who need to access file shares on a Windows Server 2022 server from the internet without a VPN. You need to provide a secure connection that uses the server's existing certificate and works through firewalls that block traditional SMB ports. What should you configure?

Enable SMB over QUIC on the file server and configure the client to connect using the server's QUIC endpoint.

Configure SMB signing on the file share and use port forwarding on the router.

Create a VPN connection for each remote user and map a drive to the file share.

Enable SMB encryption on the file share and open TCP port 445 on the firewall.

You create a quota in FSRM with a limit of 10 GB and set the threshold to 85%. What happens when a user attempts to save a file that would cause the folder to exceed 8.5 GB?

The file is blocked and the user receives an error

The user is disconnected from the share

A notification is triggered, but the file is saved

The quota limit is automatically increased
