Endpoint data loss prevention (endpoint DLP) extends the activity monitoring and protection capabilities of Microsoft Purview data loss prevention (DLP) to sensitive items that are on Windows 10/11 devices. Once devices are onboarded into the Microsoft Purview solutions, the information about what users are doing with sensitive items is made visible in activity explorer and you can enforce protective actions on those items via data loss prevention policies.

Once the Microsoft Purview extension for Chrome is installed on a Windows 10/11 device, organizations can monitor when a user attempts to access or upload a sensitive item to a cloud service using Google Chrome and enforce protective actions via DLP.
