summary for non-techies**
Starting January 2025, Microsoft Purview's Insider Risk Management tools will transition from a free trial to a pay-as-you-go model, requiring organizations to link their Azure subscription for billing based on user activity processed, similar to a gym membership billing system.
Direct effects for Operations**
Transition to Pay-As-You-Go Model
Organizations may face unexpected billing increases due to the new pay-as-you-go model for Microsoft Purview services, leading to budget overruns.

Lack of Admin Preparation
Without prior preparation, IT admins may not be aware of the need to link an Azure subscription, resulting in service interruptions or loss of access to critical risk management features.
