Azure Information Protection

[Jacob R]

I am not trying to do anything specifically at the moment but does anyone know if  I already have Azure Information Protection plan 1, would there be any reason to get Azure rights management or Exchange online protection?

Hi Jacob,

You do not need RMS because is part of the Azure Information Protectio Plan 1 - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/azure-information-protection-features

If you need mailboxes or mailflow from Office 365 you will require Exchange Online Protection EOP, but you have E5 plan that have everything that you could need.

The FAQ is well worth checking out as well:

What's the difference between Azure Information Protection and Azure Rights Management?

Azure Information Protection provides classification, labeling, and protection for an organization's documents and emails. The protection technology uses the Azure Rights Management service; now a component of Azure Information Protection.

So then I am good with azure information protection plan.  I have an E3 account and it looks like I have all the settings that come with EOP.  Looks like I am good for now.  Thanks for the answers
