Data Loss Prevention
Minimise the chances of your confidential data either accidentally or maliciously leaving your business, with Data Loss Prevention.
Stay in control of your data by blocking confidential information from leaving your business.
Data Loss Prevention is a Microsoft 365 feature designed to stop confidential data from leaving your business, whether that’s done accidentally or maliciously. You can specify rules on what data needs to be blocked by using default rules (for things like NI numbers or credit card numbers) or by creating bespoke rules for your business, like order numbers.
The technology will scan outgoing communication from Outlook, SharePoint and Teams for strings of numbers or characters matching those rules, and block the communication from being sent. Data Loss Prevention is included as part of the Microsoft 365 Business Premium license plan, but it isn’t enabled by default as it needs some custom setup – something that our Microsoft Specialists can assist with.
