Microsoft Purview DLP
Data Loss Prevention for Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams. Protect sensitive data before it leaves your organization.
Your Data Is Leaving the Organization — and No One Notices
Sensitive information — customer data, contracts, financial figures — is sent via email, shared through SharePoint, or posted in Teams chats every day. Without DLP policies, this happens uncontrolled. A single GDPR violation costs an average of EUR 2.36 million in fines.
This is not your IT team's failure. Microsoft 365 already includes DLP capabilities — but the configuration is complex, the documentation extensive, and without a structured approach, most implementations end up with too many false positives or overly restrictive policies.
With the right approach, you protect your data in 2 weeks. No third-party tools. No months-long consulting project.
