Which of the following would you configure if you wanted to block computers running Windows 7
and earlier operating systems from consuming AD RMS-protected content?
A.
Trusted publishing domain
B.
Trusted user domain
C.
Exclusion policies
D.
Super Users
The only one that makes sense out of all the options is answer C – Exclusion Policies.
But the only way to prevent is to use Exclude Lockbox Versions (i think).
“If you have enabled an exclusion based on lockbox version, clients that are using a version of the lockbox software earlier than the specified version cannot acquire rights account certificates (RACs) or use licenses because their requests will be denied. These clients must install a new version of the AD RMS client software to acquire a new lockbox that uses the current version of the software.”

Please correct me if i’m wrong.
Lockbox Exclusion IS part of Exclusion Policies. If that was one of the choices, then that is the more technically correct answer.
