policy sync

The policy sync tag covers Microsoft’s planned AI-powered investigation capability for Microsoft Purview Endpoint Data Loss Prevention. The feature is scheduled for preview in July 2026 and general availability in August 2026. It is intended to help administrators identify and alert on unhealthy policy sync and device configuration states through a web-based experience. The underlying focus is endpoint health: security policies are only effective when devices receive them and remain capable of enforcing them. This tag is relevant to discussions about monitoring distributed endpoints, identifying gaps between configured and working protections, and improving visibility into Microsoft Purview DLP policy deployment and enforcement.
