summary for non-techies**
Microsoft is enhancing its Purview Insider Risk Management tool by introducing user scoping features that allow administrators to include or exclude specific users, groups, and adaptive scopes in policies, and by adding support for non-email-based security groups, all while ensuring user privacy through pseudonymization and role-based access controls.
Direct effects for Operations**
User Scoping Features Enhancement
Without proper preparation, the enhancement may lead to misconfigured policies that either exclude critical users or include unnecessary ones, resulting in potential data breaches or insider threats going undetected.
