You can't protect what you can't see

Most organisations jump straight into DLP policies and encryption before doing the most important thing first - finding out where their data actually lives.

In this episode, Luke and Johnny break down why visibility is the foundation of any data security project, and how Microsoft Purview's built-in tools can help you get there.

We cover:

  • Why sensitive information types and trainable classifiers are the backbone of everything in Purview
  • How to use Data Explorer and Activity Explorer to understand what data you have and where it's going
  • The audit log - why it matters and how to check it's turned on
  • Shadow AI risks and why your users are your biggest exposure right now
  • How to get stakeholder buy-in before you touch a single policy

If you're new to Purview or just trying to figure out where to start, this one's for you.

Hosted by Luke Baumber and Johnny Sheehan - two Microsoft security specialists helping organisations get more from Microsoft Purview.
