Govern your data with Microsoft Purview

Microsoft 365 licensing guidance for security & compliance.

Use the capabilities from Microsoft Purview Data Lifecycle Management (formerly Microsoft Information Governance) and Microsoft Purview Records Management to govern your data for compliance or regulatory requirements.

Tip
