Existing conditions evaluate file content, but do not provide controls based on the volume of labeled attachments.

In developmentMicrosoft Purview

Microsoft Purview: Data Lifecycle Management - DLM Meter Change

Data Lifecycle Management (DLM) billing will be based on the volume of data retained. For example, any number of non‑Microsoft 365 generative AI prompts and responses that collectively amount to 1 GB of retained data will be billed at $0.25 per GB per month (equivalent to ~$0.0082 per GB per day). In the updated model, DLM is billed based on the total volume of text messages managed by a DLM policy. Each non‑Microsoft 365 generative AI prompt and response is treated as an individual text message and is retained and deleted according to the configured Microsoft Purview retention settings. Billing is calculated on the managed text messages in storage, at a rate equivalent to $6 per one million text messages per month. Customer impact Customers will need to migrate from the legacy meter to the new meter. Based on current analysis, the overall cost impact is expected to be cost‑neutral or lower for customers under the new billing model.

Microsoft Purview: Insider Risk Management – Reduce temporary file noise for Endpoint activities in IRM

When files are opened in Windows, the operating system, and applications (for example, Microsoft Office and browsers) can create, rename, and delete temporary files as part of normal behavior. The Endpoint client audits these activities, resulting in high-volume, low-signal events that appear as “noise” for Insider Risk Management (IRM) customers. While global exclusions exist (file type, keyword, file path, etc.), some temporary file naming patterns are not easily captured with the current exclusions, leaving customers without a practical way to reduce noise without over-excluding. This feature introduces built-in filtering for well-known temporary file name patterns so that Endpoint file operations are excluded from IRM activity explorer and scoring reducing noise allowing customers to focus on the most relevant alerts. Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates various signals to identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as IP theft, data leakage, and security violations.
