When purchased as the Microsoft Purview Suite for Business Premium, it can help you save **up to 47% per license** compared to buying these capabilities individually.
In short, Purview Suite helps you rethink how you secure and govern data in the age of AI, while staying aligned with regulatory expectations and budget constraints.
How does Purview Suite help manage AI-related data risks?
Microsoft Purview Suite focuses on the specific data risks that come with generative AI, such as oversharing, data leakage, and risky AI usage patterns.
Key ways it helps:
1. **Address oversharing and data leaks**
- Gain visibility into overshared content across clouds, apps, and endpoints.
- Remediate excessive permissions so fewer people and apps have unnecessary access.
- Prevent generative AI tools from processing sensitive files.
2. **Protect against data loss and insider risks**
- Get alerts and reports on risky behavior and AI use, including how users interact with AI tools.
- Protect sensitive files and Copilot interactions with data loss prevention and information protection policies.
- Dynamically apply security policies based on risky actions, not just static rules.
3. **Improve AI governance and visibility**
- Inspect interaction content and audit logs related to AI usage.
- Investigate for compliance, ethical violations, or misuse of AI tools.
- Enforce lifecycle policies and legal holds on data that may be used by or generated from AI.
These capabilities align with what many security leaders say they need most. Recent findings highlight that:
- A majority of leaders cite **leakage of sensitive data as their number one concern** with generative AI.
- Many security leaders say **identification of risky users based on queries into AI** is one of the top AI controls they want to implement.
Purview Suite is built to give you the visibility and controls you need to reimagine how you manage AI-related data risks, without slowing down innovation.
How does Purview Suite support regulatory compliance and governance?

2. **Unified governance capabilities**
- Information Protection and Data Loss Prevention to classify and protect sensitive data.
- Data Lifecycle Management to enforce retention, deletion, and legal holds.
- Insider Risk Management and Communication Compliance to identify and address risky or non-compliant behavior.
3. **eDiscovery and audit for investigations**
