summary for non-techies**
Microsoft's Purview Communication Compliance tool now allows users to customize compliance policies by selecting specific languages for trainable classifiers, reducing false positives, and includes a notification banner for hidden content that triggers policy matches, with the feature rolling out automatically and available by default.
Direct effects for Operations**
False Positives in Compliance Policies
The introduction of language-specific trainable classifiers without prior preparation may lead to an increase in false positives due to the default inclusion of all language models, causing unnecessary alerts and compliance checks.
