Microsoft Exam AZ-800 Topic 8 Question 38 Discussion

One possible solution to prevent domain users from saving executable files in a share named SRVlData is to use file screening on the file server. File screening allows you to block certain files from being saved based on their file name extension. Here are the steps to configure file screening:

On the file server, openFile Server Resource Managerfrom theAdministrative Toolsmenu.

In the left pane, expandFile Screening Managementand click onFile Groups.

Right-click onFile Groupsand selectCreate File Group.

In theFile Group Propertiesdialog box, enter a name for the file group, such asExecutable Files.

In theFiles to includebox, enter the file name extensions that you want to block, such as.exe, .bat, .cmd, .com, .msi, .scr. You can use wildcards to specify multiple extensions, such as *.exe.

ClickOKto create the file group.

In the left pane, click onFile Screen Templates.

Right-click onFile Screen Templatesand selectCreate File Screen Template.

In theFile Screen Template Propertiesdialog box, enter a name for the template, such asBlock Executable Files.

On theSettingstab, select the optionActive screening: Do not allow users to save unauthorized files.

On theFile Groupstab, check the box next to the file group that you created, such asExecutable Files.

On theNotificationtab, you can configure how to notify users and administrators when a file screening event occurs, such as sending an email, logging an event, or running a command or script. You can also customize the message that users see when they try to save a blocked file.

ClickOKto create the file screen template.

In the left pane, click onFile Screens.

Right-click onFile Screensand selectCreate File Screen.

In theCreate File Screendialog box, enter the path of the folder that you want to apply the file screening to, such asSRVlData.

Select the optionDerive properties from this file screen template (recommended)and choose the template that you created, such asBlock Executable Files.

Now, domain users will not be able to save executable files in the share named SRVlData. They will be able to save other files to the share.
