Microsoft Purview Hardening Review
Enhance Governance and Data Protection in Microsoft Purview
TrustedSec’s Microsoft Purview Hardening Review provides a complete evaluation of your information governance and compliance configurations across Microsoft 365 and Entra ID. Our experts identify misconfigurations, gaps, and weaknesses that can expose sensitive data or compromise regulatory alignment.
Ensuring Control and Visibility Across Your Data Estate
Microsoft Purview delivers powerful governance tools, but without deliberate configuration, overlapping policies and incomplete monitoring can create compliance blind spots. TrustedSec’s review focuses on strengthening your Purview deployment so that it operates as a cohesive data protection and compliance framework.
Our consultants assess permissions, Conditional Access integration, role-based access, and audit settings to ensure that your environment enforces consistent controls across all users and workloads.
