insider risk management

About this tag
Insider risk management is a Microsoft Purview feature that helps enterprise security teams detect, investigate, and act on risky user activities. Recent updates include the ability to review AI prompts and responses in plaintext, with options for pseudonymization and deanonymization. This expands traditional compliance monitoring to cover AI chat interactions alongside email, documents, endpoints, and cloud apps. The feature is designed for authorized reviewers within an organization to manage insider threats while balancing privacy controls. Discussions on WindowsForum focus on the practical implications of this expansion, including how AI chat becomes a monitored enterprise data channel under insider risk management policies.
