About this tag
Microsoft Purview is Microsoft's unified data security, governance, and compliance platform. Recent developments include default sensitivity labels for existing SharePoint files, auto-labeling simulation cancellation, endpoint DLP alerts opening data security investigations, DLP expansion to third-party services like Google Workspace and AWS, file quarantine for OneDrive and SharePoint, insider-risk triage agent enhancements, and retention-based archiving to lower-cost storage. These updates reflect Microsoft's strategy to extend Purview beyond Microsoft 365 into heterogeneous enterprise environments, improve investigation workflows, and optimize storage costs. The departure of Purview's former leader to AWS also signals shifting dynamics in cloud security leadership.
