Security teams spend valuable time reviewing alerts that often follow predictable patterns. Microsoft is helping reduce that burden with a new Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capability: rule-based alert tagging and auto-resolution.
With this enhancement, organisations can define rules that automatically handle DLP alerts based on business needs:
✅ Automatically resolve low-priority alerts that don’t require investigation, helping reduce noise in security queues.
✅ Automatically tag alerts to simplify filtering, routing, and reporting. For example, alerts generated by the Legal department can be categorised as a specific business process.
This new capability can help security and compliance teams focus on the alerts that matter most while improving operational efficiency across the organisation.
📅 Preview: August 2026
📅 General Availability: September 2026
🌍 Availability: Worldwide (Standard Multi-Tenant)
🆔 Roadmap ID: 568371
A welcome enhancement for organisations looking to streamline DLP operations and reduce alert fatigue.
