Description
Most organizations don’t fail because of missing security tools.
They fail because they enforce controls without understanding how data actually behaves.
This course is designed to fix that.
Instead of just showing where to click in Microsoft Purview, this course teaches you how to design, test, and enforce Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies the way real security teams do.
---
What You Will Learn:
• How Data Loss Prevention (DLP) actually works in Microsoft 365
• How to build detection confidence using Audit Mode
• How to reduce false positives before enforcement
• How to investigate DLP alerts like a SOC analyst
• How to move safely from Audit → Block
• How sensitivity labels protect data across SharePoint, OneDrive, and email
---
Real-World Focus:
This is NOT a theory-based course.
You will follow real enterprise-style labs, including:
• Simulating data exfiltration attempts
• Validating detection signals (SIT, match count, context)
• Tuning policies to reduce noise
• Applying enforcement without breaking business workflows
---
Who This Course Is For:
• Security Analysts (SOC)
• Microsoft 365 Security Engineers
• IT Professionals working with compliance and data protection
• Anyone learning DLP and Microsoft Purview
---
This Course Is NOT For:
• Complete beginners with no Microsoft 365 knowledge
---
Why This Course Is Different:
Most courses show features.
This course shows how those features behave in real environments.
---
By the end of this course, you won’t just know Microsoft Purview.
You’ll know how to apply it in real security scenarios.
Who this course is for:
- Security analysts who want to understand how Microsoft Purview fits into real SOC workflows
- SOC analysts and incident responders investigating data loss and insider risk alerts
- Microsoft 365 security engineers responsible for data protection and compliance
- IT and security professionals preparing for the SC-400 certification
- Cybersecurity professionals who want hands-on experience with Purview data protection
