Secure, Govern and Protect Your Data Across Microsoft 365 and Beyond
Take Control of Your Data Security, Governance and Compliance
As organisations embrace AI, cloud platforms and increasingly complex regulatory requirements, understanding and protecting business data is critically important.
Microsoft Purview provides a unified platform for data security, governance and compliance, helping organisations discover sensitive information, reduce data risk, strengthen compliance and prepare for AI adoption.
Akita provides Microsoft Purview services, consultancy and implementation to help organisations secure, govern and protect their data across Microsoft 365, cloud applications and wider business environments.
By bringing together governance, compliance and security capabilities, Purview helps create a more secure foundation for modern working and future AI initiatives.
Why Organisations Need Microsoft Purview
Organisations are managing more data across more locations than ever before. Sensitive information is often distributed between Microsoft 365, cloud platforms, SaaS applications and on-premises systems, making visibility and control increasingly difficult.
At the same time, cyber threats, insider risks and evolving compliance requirements continue to place additional pressure on IT and security teams. As organisations adopt AI technologies, ensuring that business data is properly governed and protected becomes even more important.
Microsoft Purview brings together data security, governance and compliance capabilities within a single platform, helping organisations protect sensitive information, manage risk and establish the controls required to support emerging technologies such as generative AI.
And as part of a wider Microsoft security strategy, Purview can be aligned with solutions such as Microsoft Defender, Intune and Microsoft 365 to create a comprehensive, scalable approach to data protection and governance.

How Microsoft Purview Can Support Data
Discover more about the features of Purview and how it can support security and governance initiatives:
Data Loss Prevention
Preventing sensitive information from being shared accidentally or exposed inappropriately is a critical element of modern data security.
Akita helps organisations design and implement Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies that monitor, manage and protect sensitive data across Microsoft 365, endpoints, cloud applications and connected services.
These policies help prevent unauthorised sharing and reduce the risk of data leakage while allowing employees to work productively and securely.
Key capabilities include:
• Data Loss Prevention policy design and implementation
• Protection across Microsoft 365 services
• Endpoint and cloud application controls
• Risk-based alerts and monitoring
• Support for AI and generative AI environments
Information Protection & Classification
Understanding what information is sensitive is the first step towards protecting it effectively.
Microsoft Purview enables organisations to identify, classify and protect sensitive data throughout its lifecycle. Using sensitivity labels, encryption and policy-driven controls, information can be secured appropriately wherever it resides and wherever it is shared.
Akita helps organisations implement information protection strategies that improve governance, reduce risk and provide greater confidence that business-critical data is being handled correctly.
Key capabilities include:
• Sensitivity labels
• Automated identification and classification
• Information protection policies
• Encryption and access controls
• Consistent protection across Microsoft environments
Data Security Posture Management
Organisations can lack a clear understanding of where sensitive information resides, who has access to it and where potential risks exist.
Microsoft Purview Data Security Posture Management provides greater visibility into your data security landscape, helping identify vulnerabilities, understand exposure and prioritise areas for improvement.
Akita helps organisations configure reporting, assess security risks and develop practical remediation strategies that strengthen governance and improve long-term resilience.
Key capabilities include:
• Data risk visibility
• Security posture monitoring
• Actionable recommendations
• Continuous security improvement insights
Insider Risk Management
Not all security risks originate outside the organisation.
Microsoft Purview helps identify potentially risky behaviour that could lead to data loss, policy breaches or misuse of information. Through intelligent monitoring and risk indicators, organisations can identify concerns early and respond appropriately.
Akita helps organisations implement Insider Risk Management policies that balance security, governance and operational requirements while providing meaningful visibility into potential threats.
Key capabilities include:
• Insider risk monitoring
• Policy-driven alerts
• Risk indicator configuration
• Investigation support
• Governance and compliance controls
Compliance & Records Management
Maintaining compliance becomes increasingly challenging as organisations accumulate more data and face expanding regulatory requirements.
Microsoft Purview helps organisations establish structured governance through retention policies, Compliance Manager, audit capabilities and eDiscovery tools. These capabilities simplify information management while supporting both internal governance requirements and external regulatory obligations.
Akita works with organisations to implement policies and processes that support compliance objectives while improving control over information throughout its lifecycle.
Key capabilities include:
• Retention policies
• Records management
• eDiscovery
• Audit reporting
• Compliance Manager
