A worked example
Shown solved, with the whole explanation open: this is what every question here carries.
An identity administrator holding the Security Reader role wants a single view that shows how many Conditional Access policies are enabled versus report-only, along with recent agent and user activity, application counts, and device counts. Where should the administrator look?
Correct.
Checked against learn.microsoft.com, July 2026Concept
Admin portals separate a summary surface from the drill-down surfaces beneath it. A summary answers what the state of a feature is right now, in aggregate counts. A drill-down answers a narrower question about one dimension: which applications lack protection, which users are risky, what happened on one sign-in. Asking for several unrelated counts at once is asking for the summary.
Why B
The Overview page shows a summary of recent activity related to Conditional Access policies, including enabled versus report-only counts, agent and user activity, applications, devices, and general security alerts, which matches every item the administrator wants to see in one place.

Now you: practice questions
No account needed. The explanation opens when you answer.
Sample question 1 of 3
A compliance team needs a seven-day summary of which applications in the tenant currently have no Conditional Access policy applied, so they can prioritize remediation. The Overview page already shows enabled versus report-only policy counts, but not per-application gaps. Which page should they use instead?
Sample question 2 of 3
A security administrator holding the Security Reader role opens Conditional Access in the Microsoft Entra admin center to review how many policies are enabled versus report-only, along with app, device, and agent activity. Which page shows this summary?
Sample question 3 of 3
An identity team wants a Microsoft Entra product that detects and reports identity-based risks so administrators can investigate and remediate them, including feeding risk-based Conditional Access policies. Which product provides this?
