Microsoft Data Protection Accelerator

Improve data protection with Microsoft Purview.

Understand and protect the data your organisation depends on

Organisations need to understand what sensitive data they hold, where it is stored and who can access it. Inconsistent classification and protection controls can expose information through oversharing, accidental data loss or inappropriate access.

These risks become more important as Microsoft 365 Copilot and AI agents make organisational information easier to find and use across everyday workflows.

What is the Microsoft Data Protection Accelerator?

Arinco’s Microsoft Data Protection Accelerator helps organisations discover, classify and protect sensitive information using Microsoft Purview. It applies capabilities such as sensitivity labels, automated classification, encryption and data loss prevention across Microsoft 365.

The accelerator establishes consistent policies and controls based on the organisation’s information types, compliance requirements and working practices. It also gives internal teams clearer visibility and a foundation for managing data protection as Microsoft 365 and AI adoption grow.

What is Microsoft Purview Information Protection?

Microsoft Purview Information Protection helps organisations discover, classify and protect sensitive information. It can apply sensitivity labels, encryption and usage controls to information across supported Microsoft services according to organisational policies.

Sensitivity labels classify information according to its level of sensitivity and can apply protection such as encryption, content markings and access restrictions. Labels can be applied manually by users or automatically when supported conditions are detected.

Microsoft Purview helps organisations identify sensitive information and apply consistent protection policies across Microsoft 365. These controls can reduce inappropriate exposure and help Copilot operate within a better-governed information environment.
