Session Abstract

Microsoft Purview offers a wide range of data security solutions, including Information Protection to protect data, Data Loss Prevention to prevent data leaks, Data Lifecycle Management to control the data lifecycle, and Insider Risk Management to detect and respond to insider risks. The first step for many organizations is to classify their sensitive data. One approach is letting users take charge and classify the data themselves. But if we want to make the most of the platform, we need Microsoft Purview to understand what sensitive data looks like in our environment. In this session, we are going to create classifiers that enable Microsoft Purview to identify, classify, and protect sensitive data. Join me as we explore Sensitive Information Types, Custom SITs, Fingerprint SITs, Exact Data Match SITs, Trainable Classifiers, and more. By the end of this session, you will have the skills to create classifiers in Microsoft Purview from scratch and the knowledge to know when to use which one. This will help you make the most of the platform for your organization.
