  • Microsoft Purview: Data Security Investigations – analyze files tied to endpoint DLP alerts – Speed up analysis of exfiltrated content by launching Data Security Investigations (DSI) from endpoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP) alerts. In DSI, define your endpoint DLP query (for example, time range, users, and endpoints). DSI then automatically gathers the related files that triggered the alerts for review (for example, UserA downloaded a file on 3/1/2026).

  • Microsoft Purview: Insider Risk Management-Insider risk management for agents – As AI agents become deeply embedded in enterprise ecosystems, they are evolving beyond simple tools or workflows into a digital workforce. These agents can interpret intent, access and manipulate enterprise data, execute actions and even make real-time decisions. In many ways, they operate like human insiders only with machine-speed data processing capabilities. To govern and protect these agents effectively, Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management is being expanded to agents, with specific indicators and insider risk score built for agents based on agentic activities. 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. Updated January 30: This feature is still in development with a planned release of April 2026. We apologize for the inconvenience.  Find out more: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?searchterms=516032

  • Microsoft Purview: Data Lifecycle Management – DLM Meter Change – Data Lifecycle Management (DLM) billing will be based on the volume of data retained. For example, any number of non‑Microsoft 365 generative AI prompts and responses that collectively amount to 1 GB of retained data will be billed at $0.25 per GB per month (equivalent to ~$0.0082 per GB per day). In the updated model, DLM is billed based on the total volume of text messages managed by a DLM policy. Each non‑Microsoft 365 generative AI prompt and response is treated as an individual text message and is retained and deleted according to the configured Microsoft Purview retention settings. Billing is calculated on the managed text messages in storage, at a rate equivalent to $6 per one million text messages per month. Customer impact Customers will need to migrate from the legacy meter to the new meter. Based on current analysis, the overall cost impact is expected to be cost‑neutral or lower for customers under the new billing model.
