Learn about the Microsoft Purview extension for Chrome
Endpoint data loss prevention (endpoint DLP) extends the activity monitoring and protection capabilities of Microsoft Purview data loss prevention (DLP) to sensitive items on Windows 10/11 devices. Once you onboard devices into the Microsoft Purview solutions, information about what users are doing with sensitive items is made visible in activity explorer. Then you can enforce protective actions on those items using data loss prevention policies.
After you install the Microsoft Purview extension for Chrome on a Windows 10/11 device, your organization can monitor attempts to access or upload a sensitive item to a cloud service in Google Chrome, and enforce protective actions via DLP.
