•  🆕 Microsoft Purview compliance center: Insider Risk Management – Policy scoping enhancements – With this release, Insider Risk Management administrators can include or exclude specific users, groups, and adaptive scopes within policies. We are also adding support for non-mail enabled Security Groups within IRM policies. Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates various signals to identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as IP theft, data leakage and security violations. Insider Risk Management enables customers to create policies based on their own internal policies, governance and organizational requirements. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy.
