Planner: Track task progress with the Completion (%) field

🚨 The Signal: Microsoft Planner now includes a 'Completion (%)' field for tasks. This change provides more granular progress tracking, potentially increasing the risk of sensitive task information being overshared or misinterpreted if not properly governed.

The Impact

End users and security teams are affected by the potential for increased data exposure and the need for clear communication policies.

• End users: May inadvertently overshare sensitive task progress.
• Security teams: Need to ensure data governance policies cover this new field.
• Managers: Must communicate clear expectations for using the new progress field.

The Action

1. Review existing data classification and sharing policies for Planner tasks.
2. Communicate best practices for using the 'Completion (%)' field to end-users, emphasizing data sensitivity.
3. Consider if any existing Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies need updates to account for this new data point in Planner.
