Data security is critical to protect sensitive information and reduce organizational risk, and Microsoft Purview delivers comprehensive capabilities to help achieve these outcomes. Purview Data Security solutions—including Information Protection, encryption, Data Loss Prevention, and Adaptive Protection—work together to safeguard data across its lifecycle.
Microsoft Purview enables advanced data security investigations (preview) and Data Security Posture Management, enhanced with Security Copilot integration for faster and smarter analysis. Security Copilot agents, such as DLP and IRM triage agents, work alongside Microsoft Sentinel to streamline investigations and accelerate incident response.
Microsoft Purview helps mitigate internal risks through Insider Risk Management and Information Barriers that detect, investigate, and prevent inappropriate data access or sharing. Privileged Access Management further strengthens security by controlling, monitoring, and limiting elevated access to sensitive resources.
Data compliance is essential to meet regulatory requirements and reduce legal and reputational risk, and Microsoft provides a comprehensive set of data compliance solutions to support this. Communication Compliance and Compliance Manager help organizations monitor communications, assess compliance posture, and manage regulatory obligations effectively.
In the era of AI, securing data requires strong agent observability, posture management, and DSPM for AI to protect information used by agents and AI applications. Microsoft Purview addresses Gen AI data security challenges through APIs, Copilot Control System, and comprehensive security and governance for Microsoft 365 Copilot and agents.
Microsoft Fabric integrates with Microsoft Purview to provide unified data governance and security across analytics workloads. Multiple security layers in Fabric, combined with Purview Information Protection and DLP policies, help safeguard data and prevent unauthorized access or data leakage.
Data Lifecycle Management ensures information is properly created, used, retained, and disposed of in line with organizational and regulatory requirements. Records Management extends this by defining retention labels, policies, and controls to manage records securely and compliantly throughout their lifecycle.
eDiscovery Premium and Audit Premium provide advanced tools for legal and compliance investigations, enabling organizations to identify, preserve, and analyze data efficiently. These solutions enhance audit capabilities, ensuring thorough monitoring, accountability, and regulatory compliance across Microsoft 365 environments.
Microsoft Purview offers flexible deployment models that cater to diverse organizational needs while ensuring a secure-by-default approach. This built-in security framework helps organizations protect data, enforce compliance, and manage risks effectively from the outset.
