| Insider Risk Management Detects and helps investigate risky user activity such as data theft or policy violations, using signals from across Microsoft 365. Detect and act on risky user activity (data theft before resignation, policy violations, security-control evasion) using signals across Microsoft 365, correlated into investigable alerts. |
| Purview Information Protection (analytics) Premium Adds more detailed usage reporting and analytics on top of the standard information-protection and governance analytics. Visibility into where labeled/sensitive content actually lives and how it moves (Content Explorer, Activity Explorer) — distinct from Sensitivity Labels itself, which covers creating and applying the labels; this is the reporting/analytics layer on top. |
