Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention

I setup Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention for one of my customers who had an IT setup which had a hybrid environment. They had a office where employees used to work while some of their employees worked from home. We used Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to protect their data from getting leaked outside their network.
  • Identification of sensitive information
  • Stops unwanted sharing of sensitive data
  • Good audit and reporting
  • Complex centralised console
  • Helped to protect information from leakage
The main benefits which we got from the implementation of Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention were:
1. Information classification and labeling. This helped us to identify and label sensitive information which needs to be protected
2. Blocking sharing of sensitive information. Based on the sensitivity of the information the intentional and unintentional sharing of such information was blocked.
The process of implementation of Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention was slightly complex as it involved understanding exactly what were the requirements and how those can be implemented using Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention.
Windwows
The solution is too comprehensive. It can be made somewhat simpler.
As the customer already had Microsoft Office 365 E5 license, it made sense to implement Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention instead of other products.
