Imagine your organization as a library. In this library, there are books that contain sensitive information, like personal details or confidential business strategies. You want to ensure that only the right people can read these books, especially if they contain sensitive content.

Microsoft Purview's new feature is like a smart librarian who checks each book before handing it out. This librarian uses special glasses (semantic models) to see if the book contains sensitive information. If it does, the librarian can decide who gets to read it. For example, if a book is labeled as containing sensitive information, the librarian might only allow trusted staff to read it and block access to guest visitors.

Previously, the librarian could only keep a record of who wanted to read these sensitive books and give them a gentle reminder about the importance of handling such information carefully. Now, with this new feature, the librarian can take a more active role by actually preventing certain people from accessing the books based on their content.

This feature is particularly useful for organizations that want to maintain strict control over who can access sensitive data. It ensures that sensitive information is only accessible to those who need it, helping to protect the organization from potential data breaches or leaks. Just like in a library, where you want to keep rare or important books safe, this feature helps keep your organization's sensitive data secure.
