  • Can security be automatic for your files and data? | Microsoft Purview
    Apr 24 2023

    Detect data loss, exfiltration, and data theft with intelligent automation solutions in Microsoft Purview. Data lives across apps, databases, and in file sharing locations inside and outside your infrastructure. It can be stored on devices and removable media, and it travels with each interaction. Secure data with a scalable and automated approach— discover and understand the growing volume of sensitive data, apply protections that follow data wherever it lives or travels, take preventative action when there’s a risk of data loss, and elevate or lower data protections based on individual users to balance productivity with data security.
