DLP USB Block
Currently we have DLP policies setup to block the use of USB devices and copying data to it. When checking the activity explorer I am still seeing user's able to copy data to USB devices and for the action item it says "Audit" when in the DLP policies we explicitly set it to block. Has anyone run into this issue or seen similar behavior?
Clarification related to JIT for EDLP
Can someone help clarify how JIT actually works and in which scenario we should enable JIT. The Microsoft documentation is very differently from what I’m observing during hands-on testing. I enabled JIT for a specific user (only 1 user). For that user, no JIT toast notifications appear for stale files when performing EDLP activities such as copying to a network share, etc. However, for all other users even though JIT is not enabled for them their events are still being captured in Activity Explorer. See SS below.DLP Policy not Working with OCR
Hello Community, i activated the OCR in Microsoft Purview, and scan works fine infact Purview find image that contains sensible data. I have created DLP Policy that not permit print and move to rdp file that containts "Italy Confidential Data" like "Passport Number, Drivers License ecc..." this policy works for xlsx or word that contains data, but if file word contains image with this data not apply the DLP Rule infact i'm able to print or move into rdp this file also only the jpeg file. Policy match correctly i see it into "Activity Explorer" Is this behavior correct? Regards, GuidoSecurity Copilot Skilling Series

Test DLP Policy: On-Prem
We have DLP policies based on SIT and it is working well for various locations such as Sharepoint, Exchange and Endpoint devices. But the DLP policy for On-Prem Nas shares is not matching when used with Microsoft Information Protection Scanner. DLP Rule: Conditions Content contains any of these sensitive info types: Credit Card Number U.S. Bank Account Number U.S. Driver's License Number U.S. Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) U.S. Social Security Number (SSN) The policy is visible to the Scanner and it is being logged as being executed MSIP.Lib MSIP.Scanner (30548) Executing policy: Data Discovery On-Prem, policyId: 85........................ and the MIP reports are listing files with these SITs The results Information Type Name - Credit Card Number U.S. Social Security Number (SSN) U.S. Bank Account Number Action - Classified Dlp Mode -- Test Dlp Status -- Skipped Dlp Comment -- No match There is no other information in logs. Why is the DLP policy not matching and how can I test the policy ? thanksAggregate alerts not showing up for Email DLP
Hi, I’m unable to see the “Aggregate alerts” option while configuring an Email DLP policy, although the same option is visible for Endpoint DLP. The available license is Microsoft 365 E5 Information Protection and DLP (add-on). If this is a licensing limitation, why am I still able to see the option for Endpoint DLP but not for Email DLP?

Hi everyone I recently explored how Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management (IRM) integrates with Microsoft Defender to secure sensitive data. This lab demonstrates how these tools work together to identify, investigate, and mitigate insider risks. What I covered in this lab: Set up Insider Risk Management policies in Microsoft Purview Connected Microsoft Defender to monitor risky activities Walkthrough of alerts triggered → triaged → escalated into cases Key governance and compliance insights Key learnings from the lab: Purview IRM policies detect both accidental risks (like data spillage) and malicious ones (IP theft, fraud, insider trading) IRM principles include transparency (balancing privacy vs. protection), configurable policies, integrations across Microsoft 365 apps, and actionable alerts IRM workflow follows: Define policies → Trigger alerts → Triage by severity → Investigate cases (dashboards, Content Explorer, Activity Explorer) → Take action (training, legal escalation, or SIEM integration) Defender + Purview together provide unified coverage: Defender detects and responds to threats, while Purview governs compliance and insider risk This was part of my ongoing series of security labs. Curious to hear from others — how are you approaching Insider Risk Management in your organizations or labs?
How to apply sensitivity labels to external emails received in my Outlook?
I have created a sensitivity label and an auto-labeling policy that applies the label when an email contains sensitive information. When an internal user sends the email, the label is applied correctly. But when I receive an email with sensitive information from an external user, the label is not applied. How can I apply the sensitivity label to emails that come from external users?Customized Oversharing Dialog not working for Exchange DLP
