Microsoft Purview compliance portal: Insider Risk Management- Multi selectable DLP policies as an IRM triggering event

🚨 The Signal: Insider Risk Management (IRM) now allows selecting multiple Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies as triggers. This enhances IRM's ability to detect and respond to complex insider threats by correlating more diverse data leakage signals.

The Impact

Security teams gain improved visibility into insider risks, reducing the likelihood of undetected data exfiltration or policy violations.

  • Security teams: Better detection of complex insider data leakage.
  • Compliance officers: Enhanced ability to meet data protection mandates.
  • Risk managers: Improved correlation of diverse risk signals.
  • Data owners: Reduced risk of sensitive data exfiltration.

The Action

  1. Review existing Insider Risk Management policies in Microsoft Purview compliance portal.
  2. Identify DLP policies that should trigger Insider Risk Management alerts.
  3. Modify relevant Insider Risk Management policies to include multiple DLP policy triggers.
  4. Test new policy configurations to ensure expected alert generation.
