Discover, catalog, track, and manage data sharing, while also identifying data risks and managing regulatory requirements.
As businesses continue to generate and store vast amounts of data, data governance and security have become critical concerns across industries and for organizations large and small.
Data-driven technologies, such as predictive analytics, are gaining popularity, but companies remain rightly wary about compliance and data privacy. They need to manage data risks, protect sensitive information, and comply with regulatory requirements. Microsoft’s data governance platform, Purview, offers a unified and comprehensive solution to these concerns.
Gain Limitless Visibility Into All Data Sources
At the core of Purview is its catalog, which can pull in data from various repositories, including Azure’s data and storage services and third-party data stores such as Amazon’s S3 storage service and on-premises SQL Server. Purview’s data catalog — with discovery and data governance features — enables businesses to find, organize, track, and manage data sharing. Purview also identifies data risks and manages regulatory requirements so organizations can stay in compliance.
Address Critical Risks Dynamically and Efficiently
One of the challenges organizations face today is the ongoing shift to a hybrid and multicloud environment. As companies collaborate and access data across various platforms and clouds, managing data risks becomes more complicated. Often, organizations rely on one-size-fits-all, content-centric data-protection policies, which can create signal overload and overwhelm security teams.
Purview offers an adaptive solution that helps organizations address critical risks more efficiently by prioritizing their limited security resources on the highest risks and minimizing the impact of potential data security incidents.
Advanced Data Protection and Governance Tools
Purview is part of Microsoft’s comprehensive approach to data security, and not only does a unified approach help protect data more effectively, it can help reduce costs.

The amount of data being generated worldwide is staggering. More than 2.5 billion gigabytes are generated daily.
Organizations need to make sure their information is safe from malicious attacks, inadvertent disclosure, or theft. During the third quarter of 2022, insider risks, including human error, accounted for almost 35% of unauthorized access incidents.
