Microsoft Purview: Data Security Triage Agent - Sensitive Data Remediation through Microsoft Teams

🚨 The Signal: A new Purview agent automates sensitive data remediation in SharePoint/OneDrive by notifying users via Teams. This significantly improves data loss prevention and reduces compliance risk by streamlining cleanup of sensitive information.

The Impact

• Security Teams: Reduced manual effort in DLP alert remediation.
• End Users: Prompted directly to remove sensitive data from files.
• Compliance Officers: Improved visibility and tracking of data remediation.
• Organisations: Lowered risk of sensitive data exposure and breaches.
