Imagine you are the manager of a large library. You have various rules in place to ensure that books are returned on time, that rare books are not taken out of the library, and that the reading rooms are used quietly. These rules are like the data loss prevention (DLP) policies in a digital environment. They help protect important information and ensure it is used correctly.

Now, imagine you have a new assistant who is very knowledgeable about the library's rules. This assistant can quickly summarize the rules for you, tell you where they apply, and even give you insights into how well they are working. This assistant is like Microsoft Copilot for Security in DLP. It helps administrators understand their DLP policies by summarizing them and providing insights into how they are applied across different locations and scenarios.

Just as your assistant can tell you if a rule is being followed more in one reading room than another, Copilot can show DLP admins where their policies are most effective. It can also help them see if any rules need to be updated or changed to better protect the library's collection. In the digital world, this means ensuring that sensitive data is not lost or misused.

This tool allows DLP admins to ask specific questions about their policies, much like you might ask your assistant to check if the rule about returning books on time is being followed. This way, they can make informed decisions about whether to keep, modify, or remove certain policies, ensuring that their organization's data is always protected in the best possible way.
