Protect and Govern Sensitive Data Workshop

Discover risks from dark data and learn how to address them.

80% of corporate data is "dark" - it's not classified, protected or governed.

Not long ago, managing sensitive data just meant dealing with documents and emails. Pervasive digital technology and the rapid shift to remote work have greatly expanded the information universe.

Address compliance risks head on

Protecting confidential information - wherever it goes - is critical to ensuring trust and meeting compliance requirements. But first, you need to know what data to have, where it is, how it's being used, and compliance risks that may exist.

Why you should attend

As your business-critical data expands and your workforce shifts to remote work, having an integrated approach to mitigating and controlling privacy and regulatory risks is more important than ever.

The Data Risk Check uncovers data that can cause a compliance risk

The Data Risk Check is the core activity of this workshop. The activity is spread out over several weeks to allow time to run on top of your cloud infrastructure and surface privacy and regulatory risks in organisational data. Data Risk Check leverages automated Microsoft Purview tools and services to discover data stored in the Microsoft Cloud and identify potential problem areas.

The automated discovery process will analyse your existing data for:

Sensitive information and intellectual property
Unused or "stale" data
Risky or suspicious activities

The Data Risk Check, in its core, will identify privacy and regulatory risks in Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business and Teams, and can be extended with optional modules to scan on-premises data repositories and Windows 10/11 Endpoints.
