  • It is very efficient and reliable in protecting the sensitive data or information os the company.
  • It is very easy to setup the policies in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention because the user interface it so easy and it also provides an option to test the policy before you finally push it to the production environment.
  • It efficiently performs content inspections and scanning of data from removable devices and applications
  • False positives are generated sometimes but that is very very rare.
  • Cost of the product can be revised. However it gives good value for what level of protection it is providing.
  • Only the initial setup was a bit complicated. Otherwise it is solving our problems.

  • Excellent pre-defined policies across a variety of content and regions
  • Variable scope of policy enforcement, delineation by groups and departments
  • Excellent reporting and dashboard interfaces.
  • Various alerting and intervention settings depending on which data we are restricting.
  • Advanced or specific policies have a high learning curve.
  • We have to rely on our reseller partner to implement some of the policies that we were looking for.
  • Microsoft is constantly trying to upsell the PureView suite and hides some features included in E5 Enterprise to try and upsell.

  • Adaptive Protection is one of the coolest capabilities in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention especially from the aspect of DLP. Over time, it starts analyzing risky documents and/or contents in the M365 (or O365) environment and starts securing them automatically based on the current available settings.
  • The wide variety of options while creating policies helps in covering number of different scenarios and thus offers more secure and broader coverage of content.
  • Activity explorer (specifically Analytics) provides a very helpful and informative bird's eye view of all the activities happening around while ensuring a provision of being notified in real time about any suspicious activity.
  • In case of bulk file operations, DLP has been found to be a bit laggy for few of our clients. These were mostly inter-organizational data transfer/access.
  • I'd like to see and experience a much tighter integration between purview DLP and endpoint DLP in MDE. Ideally, they should coexist at the same place (although the current positioning is also not entirely wrong).
  • I'd like to get a more action oriented version of DLP, even though the abbreviation does mention prevention. If the label goes along the document, I should be able to control even after being sent away.

  • It's a great product from an information protection perspective, as it can identify different types of data across tons of different locations.
  • It's great at applying standard regulatory frameworks, like HIPAA, to management actions so you can work towards being as compliant as possible.
  • The eDiscovery tools are very helpful when it comes to managing legal holds and discovery requests, as it's simple to freeze accounts or hold at points in time for discovery.
  • The Data Loss Prevention tools don't seem to integrate well with other DLP tools Microsoft provides, like those built into Exchange Online. Data is missed when it should be blocked from being sent.
  • The way Purview contributes to the overall Microsoft Security Score can be a bit difficult to tell, it's not clear what is being applied to improve the score and other management windows need to be accessed to address suggestions.
