Community Insight

CAE is supported for both SharePoint Online and Exchange Online; the M365 profile enables CAE signaling for these workloads, so both are protected, not just one.

With the Microsoft Entra Internet Access Microsoft 365 profile and linked Conditional Access, continuous access evaluation (CAE) protects both SharePoint Online and Exchange Online, so the answer is both services.

Selecting only SharePoint (A) or only Exchange (B) — CAE applies to both workloads under the Microsoft 365 profile.

Expert Analysis

Why the Answer Is Correct

Continuous access evaluation (CAE) is supported for both Microsoft SharePoint Online and Microsoft Exchange Online. When the Microsoft 365 profile of Entra Internet Access is enabled and the linked Conditional Access policy performs compliant network checks with CAE, both workloads are protected by CAE.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

CAE is not limited to one of the two workloads; selecting only SharePoint Online (A) or only Exchange Online (B) omits the other workload that CAE also covers.
