[Introduction]
Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management is adding the ability for analysts to view AI prompt and response messages associated with insider risk indicators, even when user anonymization is enabled, helping improve investigation context while preserving privacy protections. This enhancement provides additional visibility into AI-related risk signals while maintaining existing role-based access controls, audit logging, and privacy-by-design safeguards.
Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates signals across Microsoft 365 to help organizations identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as data leakage, IP theft, and security policy violations. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs help ensure investigations balance risk visibility with user privacy.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 560599.
