Hi everybody Our technical writer, Carol Bailey, is letting you know what’s new and hot in the docs for this month. Reminders: Follow us on Twitter ( @TheRMSGuy ) and join in our peer community at www.yammer.com/AskIPTeam . Dan (on behalf of the Information Protection team) The Documentation for Azure Information Protection (formerly Azure Rights Management) has been updated on the web and the latest content has a September 2016 (or later) date at the top of the article. The documentation is now rebranded to match our new name, to support General Availability on 1st October, and announced at the Microsoft Ignite 2016 conference. For more information, see our recently published blog post, Securing your digital transformation with Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security . Be sure to watch this blog for more information about the technical changes and new features. Documentation that was specific to the preview of Azure Information Protection is now integrated with the rest of the documentation, and the starting documentation page has been updated to recommend the latest information. You might notice that URLs to the documentation pages have now changed for the new service name, but with automatic redirects, you should still be able to get to the documentation if you do use the previous links.
