Microsoft Purview Data risk assessments now support item-level investigation and remediation of SharePoint data. New insights like sensitivity label and sharing link information help users identify items at risk of oversharing. Users are empowered to remediate overshared items by resolving, notifying, applying a sensitivity label, or removing sharing links for selected item(s). This helps organizations proactively reduce data exposure, strengthen compliance posture, and ensure sensitive data are only accessible to the right people. We are cancelling this Roadmap item as it is a duplicate. For future updates please refer to Roadmap ID 523202. We apologize for the inconvenience.

summary for non-techies**
Microsoft Purview has introduced a feature for detailed investigation and management of data within SharePoint, allowing users to identify overshared files by showing sensitivity labels and sharing links, and providing options to change labels, remove sharing links, or notify others to enhance data security.
Direct effects for Operations**
Data Exposure Risk
Without proper preparation, the implementation of item-level investigation may lead to unintentional oversharing of sensitive data, as users may not be adequately trained on the new features, resulting in compliance violations.
