DRAG DROP You support a customer's datacenter with Microsoft Lync Server 2013. All servers are members of an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forest that is operating at a Windows Server 2003 forest functional level. Client computers run either Lync 2013 client or Office Communicator R2. Lync Server 2013 enhanced presence privacy mode is enabled. A user reports that her presence and contact information is accessible to users who have not been authorized to view it. You need to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the user personal information. Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate three actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
Correct Answer:

Explanation:
Box 1: Upgrade Office Communicator R2 to Lync 2013
Box 2: Define a new client version policy that prevents Office Communicator from signing in.
Box 3: Instruct users to sign in to Lync client and restore privacy settings.
Note:
*Lync 2013 and Lync 2010 privacy settings are not honored by previous versions (Microsoft Office Communicator
2007 R2 or Microsoft Office Communicator 2007). If previous versions of Office Communicator are allowed to sign in, a Lync 2013 user's status, contact information, or picture could be viewed by someone who has not been authorized to view it. Additionally, a Lync 2013 user's privacy settings are reset if he or she later signs in with previous version of Communicator. For these reasons, in a migration scenario, before you enable enhanced presence privacy mode:
*(Box 1) Ensure that every user has Lync 2013 installed.
*(Box 2) Define a client version policy rule to prevent previous versions of Communicator from signing in.
*With enhanced presence privacy mode, users can restrict their presence information so that it is visible only to the contacts listed in their Lync 2013 Contacts list.
