“The reason Microsoft provides such a powerful security solution is that it seeks to meet your needs holistically. Each security layer talks to everything else, including those data sources you might be using that are external to Microsoft.”

“We needed to precisely identify which Microsoft 365 productivity applications should be classified for internal or external use. Using a container label to differentiate permissions meant users could access a single document within a team or SharePoint site and the same users could not accidentally stumble upon confidential documents, a key element of the Microsoft Purview Information Protection solution that we couldn’t get from any other solution on the market.”
