Endpoint DLP
Endpoint DLP extends Purview data loss prevention to activities on managed devices, such as copying files to USB or printing. SC-401 covers device requirements, advanced device rules, and monitoring endpoint activities.
All SC-401 Terms
Microsoft Purview
Microsoft Purview is Microsoft's unified data security, governance, and compliance suite.
Sensitivity label
A sensitivity label is a Purview classification applied to items and containers to enforce protection such as encryption, content marking, and access limits.
Auto-labeling
Auto-labeling is a Purview capability that automatically applies sensitivity or retention labels to content that matches defined conditions.
Sensitive information type
A sensitive information type (SIT) is a pattern-based classifier — built-in or custom — used to detect data like credit-card or ID numbers.
Exact data match
Exact data match (EDM) is a classification method that identifies sensitive data by matching against a hashed copy of an organization's own data values.
Trainable classifier
A trainable classifier is a Purview machine-learning classifier trained on examples to recognize a category of content.
Data Loss Prevention
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a Purview capability that detects and restricts the sharing of sensitive data across Microsoft 365 workloads and endpoints.
Endpoint DLP
Endpoint DLP extends Purview data loss prevention to activities on managed devices, such as copying files to USB or printing.
Adaptive Protection
Adaptive Protection dynamically adjusts DLP and other controls based on a user's calculated insider risk level.
Retention label
A retention label classifies content to enforce how long it is kept and what happens at the end of its lifecycle.
Retention policy
A retention policy applies retention or deletion settings broadly to locations such as mailboxes and sites without labeling individual items.
Insider Risk Management
Insider Risk Management is a Purview solution that detects and manages risky internal activities using policy templates and indicators.
Purview Audit
Microsoft Purview Audit records user and admin activity across Microsoft 365 in the unified audit log, with a Premium tier for extended retention.
DSPM for AI
DSPM for AI (Data Security Posture Management for AI) is a Purview capability that discovers, protects, and monitors data used by AI services such as Copilot.
