Preventing Teams private messages from eDiscovery
Of course I'm aware that Teams private messages are stored and are searchable with an eDiscovery search. Our problem is that our CEO doesn't want this, and he refuses to use Teams for this very reaso...
VasilMichev None of these options actually prevent Teams private messages from being eDiscovery-searchable in the first place though, which is what we're looking for.
KM2002 Set a one day retention policy, so that all messages are deleted, then they won't exist in the eDiscovery archive. If the messages exist they are searchable, the only way to limit that is not having them any longer.
- Unfortunately that doesn't resolve our issue either as we don't want people's messages to simply be removed. We want that individual person to still have their messages.
