Introduction
The purpose of this blog post is to provide an overview of Microsoft Purview, a cloud-based data governance product, and how it can be used to secure and protect sensitive data within an organization. In particular, we will discuss how sensitivity labels and SharePoint sites can be used to ensure that only authorized individuals have access to sensitive data. We will also discuss how Purview can be used to detect and investigate data security incidents.

What is Microsoft Purview?
Microsoft Purview is a cloud-based data governance product that provides businesses with the ability to discover, classify, protect, and audit data across their organization. Purview allows organizations to identify and classify their data according to sensitivity levels, and to assign appropriate access rights to different users based on those classifications. It also provides the ability to detect and investigate data security incidents.

Sensitivity Labels
Sensitivity labels enable organizations to classify their data according to sensitivity levels, such as public, confidential, or highly confidential. These labels can then be applied to documents, emails, and other data stores. Once the labels are applied, they can be used to define who has access to the data and what types of actions they are allowed to take with it.

SharePoint Sites
SharePoint sites are used to store and share documents within an organization. With Purview, organizations can create SharePoint sites that have restricted access based on the sensitivity labels that have been applied to the documents. This ensures that only those users who have been granted the appropriate access rights can view and modify the documents.

Data Security Incident Detection and Investigation
Purview can be used to detect and investigate data security incidents. The product provides the ability to monitor data access and detect anomalies. It also provides the ability to investigate suspicious activities and identify the source of the incident. This can help organizations quickly identify and address potential security threats.

Conclusion
Microsoft Purview is a powerful tool for managing and protecting sensitive data within an organization. The product enables organizations to classify their data according to sensitivity levels and to assign appropriate access rights to different users. It also provides the ability to detect and investigate data security incidents. With Purview, organizations can ensure that their data is secure and protected.
