Hi, Office Insiders! Peter Frem, a Microsoft Product Manager who helps organizations avoid data leaks and unauthorized access is excited to share that protections to PDFs created with Office apps are being extended.
Apply sensitivity labels to PDFs
Many organizations rely on sensitivity labels from Microsoft Information Protection to help you classify and protect important organizational data, while also making sure that productivity and collaboration isn’t hindered.
Within Office apps, built-in sensitivity labels were previously limited to Office documents. We’re now extending this functionality, allowing you to use these labels to protect PDFs created using Word, Excel, or PowerPoint for Windows. Without requiring any additional configuration from compliance or system administrators, you will automatically be able to assign the source file’s label, marking, and encryption to your PDFs created from supported Office files.
