In today’s digital landscape, managing and protecting data across various environments is more critical than ever. Organizations are often faced with fragmented data, a lack of visibility, and evolving regulatory requirements, making data governance a complex challenge. Microsoft Purview emerges as a comprehensive solution designed to address these challenges, offering a unified platform that integrates governance, security, and compliance.
Microsoft Purview is an integrated set of solutions that help organizations govern, protect, and manage their data, wherever it resides. By combining the capabilities of the former Azure Purview and Microsoft 365 compliance solutions, Purview provides a holistic approach to managing data across on-premises, multicloud, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) environments.
Data Security
Microsoft Purview offers a robust suite of data security tools designed to discover and protect sensitive information across your organization. These tools include:
Data Governance
Unified data governance is at the core of Microsoft Purview. It allows organizations to manage data services across diverse environments, including Azure storage, Power BI, SQL databases, and more. The key governance tools include:
Risk and Compliance
Microsoft Purview also includes a range of risk and compliance solutions that help organizations minimize compliance risks and meet regulatory requirements. These tools include:
Microsoft Purview empowers organizations to gain visibility into their data, safeguard it throughout its lifecycle, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. The platform’s integrated approach simplifies data management, making it easier to classify, secure, and audit data. With Purview, organizations can build trust with stakeholders by ensuring that data is discoverable, secure, and compliant with regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA.
Moreover, Purview’s deep integration with the Azure environment ensures that organizations can leverage their existing investments in Azure infrastructure, making data governance more streamlined and efficient.
While Microsoft Purview offers a powerful and comprehensive platform, it’s not without its challenges. For instance, some users may find its eDiscovery features lacking in advanced search capabilities. Additionally, Purview’s complexity, coupled with the need for specific licensing and potential extra costs, can make the total cost of ownership higher for organizations seeking a cost-effective solution.
Moreover, Purview’s focus on Microsoft products means that data from non-Microsoft environments, such as Zoom or Google Drive, may not be fully covered, creating potential blind spots in data governance.
Microsoft Purview represents a significant advancement in data governance, security, and compliance, offering a unified and integrated platform that addresses the complexities of modern data management. While there are some challenges to consider, the benefits of a comprehensive and streamlined approach to data governance make Microsoft Purview a valuable asset for organizations looking to secure and manage their data effectively in today’s digital landscape.
