Authoring and publishing protection policies for Amazon S3 (preview)

Artykuł
06/28/2024

Protection access control policies (protection policies) enable organizations to automatically protect sensitive data across data sources. Microsoft Purview already scans data assets and identifies sensitive data elements, and this new feature allows you to automatically restrict access to that data using sensitivity labels from Microsoft Purview Information Protection.

Protection policies ensure that Enterprise Admins must authorize data access for a sensitivity type. After enabling these policies, access control is automatically imposed whenever sensitive information is detected with Microsoft Purview Information Protection.

Actions supported

Restrict access on labeled data assets so that only users and groups you select can access them.
Action configured on Sensitivity Labels in the Microsoft Purview Information Protection solution.

Supported regions

These are the supported Amazon region for Amazon S3 protection policies:

US West (Oregon, Northern California), US East (Northern Virginia, Ohio), Canada (Central), Canada West (Calgary), GovCloud(US-West, US-East), Europe(Ireland, Frankfurt, London, Paris, Stockholm, Milan, Zurich, Spain), Middle East (Bahrain, UAE), Israel (Tel Aviv), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Singapore, Tokyo, Seoul, Mumbai, Hong Kong, Osaka, Jakarta), AWS Asia Pacific (Hyderabad), Mainland China (Beijing, Ningxia), Australia (Sydney, Melbourne).

Limitations

Even though we allow selection of Entra group when creating an information protection policy; Entra groups-based policies aren't supported by S3 buckets.
A policy size limit of 20 KB per bucket policy.
Maximum of ten S3 buckets can be selected within a single S3 bucket policy.
S3 glacier isn't supported.

Prerequisites

Note

It's recommended you use a test tenant to test preview features.

Microsoft 365 E5 licenses. For the preview, E5 licenses are required in the tenant and assigned to users testing the solution. Microsoft 365 E5 trial licenses can be attained for your tenant by navigating here from your test environment.
Existing Microsoft Purview accounts upgraded to Microsoft Purview single tenant model and new Portal experience, using the enterprise version of Microsoft Purview.

AWS SSO must be enabled with Microsoft Entra as the IDP.
Configure users and permissions.
Enable advanced resource sets in Microsoft Purview:
1. Have a user who is a data curator or a data reader at the root collection, sign in to the Microsoft Purview portal and open the Settings menu.
2. Under the Account page, find Advanced Resource Sets and set the toggle to On.
Create or extend sensitivity labels from Microsoft Purview Information Protection to data map assets.

Note

Be sure to also publish your labels after creating them.
Register your Amazon S3 sources.

Note

To continue, you need to be a data source administrator in the collection where your Amazon S3 bucket is registered.

Create protection policy access role in AWS.

Create a Microsoft Purview credential with these fields:

Field	Description
Name	Enter a meaningful name for this credential.
Description	Enter an optional description for this credential, such as `Used to scan the tutorial S3 buckets`
Authentication method	Select Role ARN, since you're using a role ARN to access your bucket.
Role ARN	Once you've created your role in AWS, navigate to your role in the AWS IAM area, copy the Role ARN value, and enter it here. For example: `arn:aws:iam::181328463391:role/S3Role`. For more information, see Retrieve your new Role ARN.

Enable data policy enforcement for your Amazon S3 resource.
Add a connection for policy enforcement:
1. On your data source, open the Edit page, select the Connection for policy enforcement and select + New.
2. Enter a name, select your domain, and for the Credential select the credential you created in the previous step.
3. Test your connection.
  
  Note
  
  Microsoft Purview will test for read permissions and connection before creating the credential. If test connection passes but binding the policy fails, check to make sure that your ARN role has write permissions to edit labels and policies.
4. When test connection succeeds, select Save.

Scan Amazon S3.

Note

Wait at least 24 hours after scanning.

Create protection policy access role in AWS

When you create a role in AWS to use to create access policies, make sure that it has these permissions on your S3 Bucket:

GetBucketLocation
GetBucketPublicAccessBlock
GetObject
PutBucketPolicy
PutObjectTagging
DeleteBucketPolicy
List Bucket

And make sure to add this tag: msftpurview_allowlisted and the value true.

To create this role:

Follow our documentation to create an AWS role for Microsoft Purview. Be sure to set permissions and tags as listed above.

Follow the AWS documentation to create a policy using the JSON editor, using this JSON:

Note

The Sid and resource can be changed to desired values. The “*” for Resource indicates that the ARN role will have access to all S3 buckets within the AWS account.

{ 
    "Version": "2012-10-17", 
    "Statement": [ 
    { 
        "Sid": "msftpurviewpolicyenforcement", 
        "Effect": "Allow", 
        "Action": [ 
            "s3:PutBucketPolicy", 
            "s3:PutObjectTagging", 
            "s3:DeleteBucketPolicy" 
        ], 
        "Resource": "*" 
    } 
    ] 

}

Open the role you created in the first step and under permissions select Attach policies.
Select the policy you created in step 2.

Create protection policy

Now that you've followed the prerequisites and prepared your Microsoft Purview instance and source for protection policies and waited at least 24 hours after your most recent scan, follow these steps to create your protection policies:

Depending on the portal you're using, navigate to one of the following locations:
- Sign in to the Microsoft Purview portal > Information Protection card > Policies
  
  If the Information Protection solution card isn't displayed, select View all solutions and then select Information Protection from the Data Security section.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Purview compliance portal > Solutions > Information protection > Policies
Select Protection policies.
Select New protection policy.
Provide a name and description and select Next.
Select + Add sensitivity label to add sensitivity label(s) to detect for the policy, and select all the labels you want the policy to apply to.
Select Add then select Next.
