Data Security Assessment

Data is crucial for businesses, providing insights, competitive advantages, and efficiency. The datasphere is expected to double by 2026, with data being stored and accessed in various locations, including on-site, in clouds, and on devices. The rise of generative AI apps will accelerate data production, increasing the need for data security and governance. Data security incidents are becoming more frequent and costly. Organizations face challenges in securing and managing data due to its growing volume and diversity. Many decision-makers lack visibility into their sensitive data. Effective data protection requires understanding how data is used and shared, as there is no one-size-fits-all strategy.

This assessment is one that helps land the Microsoft Purview vision and its value proposition with customer’s business decision makers. It is powered by the Data Security Check. The Data Security Check is a structured engagement that leverages a subset of Microsoft Purview products including Purview Content Search, Purview Data Loss Prevention, Sensitive Information Types, AIP Scanner, Purview Insider Risk Management, Purview Communication Compliance, and Purview Compliance Manager to gain visibility into existing, and at sometimes hidden, data security risks that may exist in the data that resides in the customer’s Microsoft 365 cloud environment.

Ultimately, the Data Security Engagement will help you understand how the Microsoft Purview Family can mitigate and protect against the real data security risks identified during the engagement.
