Set-DlpComplianceRule

This cmdlet is available only in Security & Compliance PowerShell. For more information, see Security & Compliance PowerShell.

Use the Set-DlpComplianceRule to modify data loss prevention (DLP) rules in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal. DLP rules define sensitive information to be protected and the actions to take on rule violations.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

-BlockAccess

The BlockAccess parameter specifies an action for the DLP rule that blocks access to the source item when the conditions of the rule are met. Valid values are:

  • $true: Blocks further access to the source item that matched the rule. The owner, author, and site owner can still access the item.
  • $false: Allows access to the source item that matched the rule. This is the default value.

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

This cmdlet has a built-in pause, so use -Confirm:$false to skip the confirmation.

-ContentContainsSensitiveInformation

The ContentContainsSensitiveInformation parameter specifies a condition for the rule that's based on a sensitive information type match in content. The rule is applied to content that contains the specified sensitive information type. In addition to sensitive information types, the parameter can also be applied to files that contain sensitivity labels.

This parameter uses the basic syntax @(@{Name="SensitiveInformationType1";[minCount="Value"],@{Name="SensitiveInformationType2";[minCount="Value"],...). For example, @(@{Name="U.S. Social Security Number (SSN)"; minCount="2"},@{Name="Credit Card Number"}). Example for a sensitivity label: @(@{operator = "And"; groups = @(@{operator="Or";name="Default";labels=@(@{name="Confidential";type="Sensitivity"})})}).

Use the Get-DLPSensitiveInformationType cmdlet to list the sensitive information types for your organization. For more information on sensitive information types, see What the sensitive information types in Exchange look for.

-EvaluateRulePerComponent

The EvaluateRulePerComponent parameter specifies whether a match for conditions and exceptions in the rule is contained within the same message component. Valid values are:

The Priority parameter specifies a priority value for the rule that determines the order of rule processing within the policy. A lower integer value indicates a higher priority, the value 0 is the highest priority, and rules can't have the same priority value.

Valid values and the default value for this parameter depend on the number of existing rules in the policy. For example, if there are 8 existing rules:

If you modify the priority value of a rule, the position of the rule in the list changes to match the priority value you specify. In other words, if you set the priority value of a rule to the same value as an existing rule, the priority value of the existing rule and all other lower priority rules after it are increased by 1.
