The Purview Post-Mortem: 10 Mistakes You’re About to Make
Microsoft Purview is often pitched as the silver bullet: toggle a few policies, deploy sensitivity labels, clean up stale data, and automatically govern enterprise AI. But once you start clicking buttons in the admin center, reality sets in fast.
We’ve led Purview implementations across every stage of maturity, and we’re opening up our project post-mortems for ECS. Think of this session as your preventive guide to avoiding the classic Purview traps: complex label hierarchies that paralyze end users, auto-labeling rules that accidentally block legitimate work, custom SITs that produce endless false positives, and retention policies that clutter your storage.
Beyond the tech, we’ll dive into the missing link in most projects: the people and processes required to make data governance stick. Attend this session to learn from our most seen mistakes, and you’ll get practical advice on what to configure, what to skip, and how to build a governance strategy that actually works in practice.
