Microsoft Purview's AI Hub introduces a feature called data assessments, which helps administrators manage data security more effectively. Think of it like a security guard in a shopping mall. Just as a security guard monitors different areas of the mall to ensure everything is safe, data assessments allow admins to keep an eye on sensitive data and who has access to it across various locations within an organization.

With data assessments, admins can create specific evaluations to focus on particular areas of concern, much like a security guard might pay extra attention to high-value stores. These assessments help identify any potential risks or vulnerabilities in data handling and access. Once these risks are identified, admins can take necessary actions to address them, similar to how a security guard might intervene if they notice suspicious activity.

This feature is part of the Microsoft Purview compliance portal, which is designed to help organizations maintain data security and compliance. By using data assessments, organizations can ensure that their data is protected and that only authorized users have access, reducing the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access. This proactive approach to data security is essential in today's digital landscape, where data protection is a top priority for businesses.
