There is an increasing imperative across all sectors to ensure that private, sensitive, and confidential information is protected and secured regardless of platform.
Protecting your high value information requires teams to come together across disciplines. Based on our foundations of record and content management and experience with M365 compliance capabilities we have created a risk-based protection framework. It provides a cross-functional approach for assessing information types and forming a protection plan for each.
