Explanation:

Configure the business unit data retention setting to 12 months is the policy that the Marketing Cloud admin could configure in Setup. Business unit data retention setting is a setting that allows marketers to specify how long records in data extensions should be retained at the business unit level. By configuring the business unit data retention setting to 12 months, any inactive data that is older than 12 months will be automatically deleted from the data extensions in that business unit2

Explanation:

The Content Builder Settings under Setup allow the admin to create a default Header and Footer for emails. These settings apply to emails created in Content Builder only. The other settings do not have an option to create a default Header and Footer for emails.

Explanation:

To address the issue of employees not receiving emails because the messages are being blocked by spam filters, the Marketing Cloud admin should provide the IT team a list of relevant IP addresses to whitelist in their spam filter. Whitelisting is a process that allows NTO to specify which IP addresses are trusted and can bypass the spam filter. By providing the IT team a list of relevant IP addresses, such as the ones used by Marketing Cloud to send emails, the admin can ensure that the emails from NTO will not be blocked or marked as spam by the employees’ email servers. The other options are incorrect because:

Import employee email addresses into All Subscribers with an “Active” status. This option will not address the issue, as it only affects the subscription status of the employees in Marketing Cloud, not in their email servers. Importing employee email addresses into All Subscribers with an “Active” status means that NTO can send emails to those employees from Marketing Cloud, but it does not guarantee that the emails will be delivered or received by the employees’ email servers. Ensure employees have opted in to the test email list or data extension. This option will not address the issue, as it only affects the consent of the employees to receive emails from NTO, not their email servers. Ensuring employees have opted in to the test email list or data extension means that NTO has permission to send emails to those employees, but it does not guarantee that the emails will be delivered or received by the employees’ email servers.

Ask employees to use personal email addresses instead of corporate email addresses. This option will not address the issue, as it only shifts the problem from one email server to another, not solving it. Asking employees to use personal email addresses instead of corporate email addresses means that NTO will send emails to different email servers, but it does not guarantee that those email servers will not block or mark the emails as spam.

Explanation:

Marketing Cloud Email Marketing Manager and Marketing Cloud Regional or Local Administrator are two roles, custom or standard, that could be assigned to this user to meet the requirement. Marketing Cloud Email Marketing Manager is a standard role that grants access to Email Studio and its features, such as creating and sending emails, managing subscribers, and tracking email performance. Marketing Cloud Regional or Local Administrator is a custom role that grants access to all business units within a specific region or location, such as North America

Explanation:

To use Einstein to recommend similar items to customers during the checkout process, NTO needs to add two types of code to their website: Collect Code and Conversion/Cart Code2. Collect Code tracks customer behavior and preferences on the website, while Conversion/Cart Code tracks purchases and cart additions2. Recommendation Code is used to display product recommendations on the website, not during the checkout process2. Email Conversion Code is used to track conversions from email campaigns, not from website visits2.

Explanation:

Impression Tracking for Triggered Sends is the report that should be used. Impression Tracking for Triggered Sends is a feature that allows marketers to track how subscribers interact with content areas within triggered emails. Impression Tracking for Triggered Sends can be enabled for any content area that uses AMPscript or dynamic content blocks. The report shows metrics such as impressions, unique impressions, clicks, and click rate for each content area

Explanation:

To ensure sensitive information needed for email sends is not imported and stored in Marketing Cloud, NTO should implement Tokenized Sending4. Tokenized Sending is a feature that allows NTO to send emails using encrypted tokens instead of actual email addresses. The tokens are generated by an external system and stored in a secure database outside of Marketing Cloud. When NTO sends an email, Marketing Cloud sends the token to the external system, which decrypts it and returns the actual email address. This way, NTO can avoid importing and storing sensitive information in Marketing Cloud. The other options are incorrect because:

Transparent Data Encryption. This is a feature that encrypts data at rest in Marketing Cloud using encryption keys managed by Salesforce. However, this feature does not prevent NTO from importing and storing sensitive information in Marketing Cloud; it only protects it from unauthorized access5.

Key Management. This is a feature that allows NTO to manage their own encryption keys for data at rest in Marketing Cloud using an external key management system. However, this feature does not prevent NTO from importing and storing sensitive information in Marketing Cloud; it only gives them more control over their encryption keys.

Field Level Encryption. This is a feature that encrypts specific fields in data extensions using encryption keys managed by NTO. However, this feature does not prevent NTO from importing and storing sensitive information in Marketing Cloud; it only encrypts it within data extensions.

Explanation:

When a subscriber clicks a link in an email, their status is changed from Bounced to Active, and their bounce count is reset to zero. This indicates that the subscriber’s email address is valid and reachable

Explanation:

The Setup Assistant guides the Marketing Cloud admin through creating users and assigning roles, classifying sends and defining parameters, and building the data structure for storing audience information. These are essential tasks for setting up Marketing Cloud. The Setup Assistant does not cover creating a SMS message or importing data using the Data Loader.

Explanation:

Run Once schedule type and Winner evaluation are two settings that should be selected before the admin can configure the Holdback percentage. Path Optimizer is a feature that allows marketers to test different paths in a journey and select a winner based on a specific metric. To use Path Optimizer, the admin needs to select a schedule type of Run Once, which means the journey will run only once for a single batch of contacts. The admin also needs to select a winner evaluation, which determines how long the test will run and how the winner will be chosen. After selecting these settings, the admin can configure the Holdback percentage, which is the percentage of contacts that will not enter any path until a winner is selected

Explanation:

The security setting ‘Enable Username and Password for Web Services’ allows users to access the API with their Marketing Cloud username and password. If this setting is deselected, users will need to use an API user or an installed package to access the API

Explanation:

Using %%FILENAME_FROM_TRIGGER%% in the Import File Activity allows the automation to import any file that matches the filename pattern, regardless of the date and time stamp. This is the recommended solution for File Drop Automations
