Microsoft Azure Information Protection (AIP)

• 📝 Helps to classify and optionally protect (encrypt) documents and emails by applying labels.
• Labels can be applied
  • automatically based on rules and conditions
  • or manually
• E.g. when a user saves a Microsoft Word document containing a credit card number, a custom tooltip is displayed. The tooltip recommends labeling the file as Confidential \ All Employees configured by the administrator.
• After your content is classified, you can track and control how the content is used. E.g. you can:
  • Analyze data flows to gain insight into your business
  • Detect risky behaviors and take corrective measures
  • Track access to documents
  • Prevent data leakage or misuse of confidential information
• You can purchase AIP either as a standalone solution, or through one of the following Microsoft licensing suites:
  • Enterprise Mobility + Security
  • or Microsoft 365 Enterprise
