IRM in Sharepoint and Azure Information Protection - solid model files, step files
So I have users using OneDrive for business whcih has Azure IP enabled. What happens when they then copy tose files into a SharePoint Library wiht SharePoint IRM enabled? Do I end up with an encryoted Blog that SharePoint cannot read (File encrypted already with AIP in OneDrive4B) or does it revert to the SharePoint IRM protection?
As OneDrive4B is in effect a SharePoint site it seems illogical not to support the SharePoint IRM as an option.
If you have AIP, I would keep SP IRM turned off. Mixing them will cause end-user confusion.
SP IRM applies to all the files in the library and they all get the same protection.
AIP provides the ability to apply different protection templates to different files, which is a better user experience in many cases.
But AIP cannot be searched within SharePoint!
Microsoft need to make this transparant as it weakens the functionality of SharePoint. Why they cannot unify this, ie: an AIP document can be unecrypted when placed in a SPOL IRM Library.
i am very interested to find out how to mitigate this.
What happens if you are using AIP to tag files in OneDrive and a user goes in and enables the IRM settings in the onedrive document library.what happens with the AIP and IRM at this point?
how do we mitigate that?
My companies answer was to strip all users of Site Collection administrator permissions and only give them contribute permissions to the onedrive library.
what do you guys do?
