Find and classify the sensitive files in your unstructured data at rest
We scan your file repositories to show where card numbers, personal data, intellectual property and other sensitive information sit, who can reach them and how they should be labeled.
- Scenario
- EDO 1: unstructured data at rest
- Discovery levels
- Discovery, Discovery+ and Discovery++
- Technologies
- Microsoft Purview Information Protection, E-Visor, Power BI
- Licensing
- Microsoft 365 E5 or Information Protection and Governance
Three levels of discovery
The right level depends on how mature your sensitive information management is today. Each level adds to the previous one.
- Discovery: full file metadata, including name, type, owner, size, creation and last modified date
- Discovery+: everything in Discovery, plus sensitive information by type and file and folder access
- Discovery++: everything in Discovery+, plus recommended taxonomy label and existing classification and protection
- Prepare file migrations by finding stale, large and sensitive files first
- See the impact of sensitivity labels before you apply them
- Break down repositories by size, owner, file type and more
From scan to protection plan
Users reach data from many channels and devices, often without consistent controls or analytics to guide decisions. The assessment establishes the facts first.
Scope and scan configuration
We agree on the repositories and the discovery level, then configure scanning in your environment without modifying your data.
Discovery and classification
Files are inventoried and inspected for sensitive information types such as financial data, personal data, access credentials and intellectual property.
Analysis and action plan
Results are presented in E-Visor, and we build the action plan with your team, including impact analysis and mitigation actions.
A clear view of your file estate
Complete file inventory
File inventory and data metrics in E-Visor and exportable Power BI reports, with the sensitive data found and the recommended sensitivity label.
Labeling readiness
A view of how Microsoft Purview Information Protection labels would apply to your content, so you can plan the rollout before users are affected.
Action plan roadmap
An expert plan co-created for your scenarios, with potential impact analysis and mitigation actions.
For organizations with large file estates
- Organizations with large file servers or NAS shares and little visibility of their content
- Teams preparing a file migration to SharePoint or OneDrive
- Compliance teams that must protect personal, financial or medical information
- Security teams planning a sensitivity labeling or data at rest initiative
Extend the scan to more data
Add structured data, or combine both in a single hybrid assessment.
