Data Security Workshop

Overview

iT1 Microsoft Data Security Envisioning Workshop helps organizations understand, prioritize, and plan remediation for data security and compliance risks using Microsoft Purview capabilities. Through data-driven insights from the customer’s Microsoft 365 environment and collaborative working sessions, the workshop helps security, compliance, and business stakeholders move from uncertainty to a clear, actionable roadmap.

The workshop is powered by the Data Security Check, which uses Microsoft Purview to discover and analyze sensitive data, oversharing patterns, stale or unclassified content, risky user activity, and potential exposure across Microsoft 365 workloads.

What Makes This Workshop Different

Unlike theoretical assessments, this workshop uses real signals from the customer environment to demonstrate:

• Where sensitive data lives and how it is being accessed
• How data is shared internally and externally across Microsoft 365
• Where stale, dark, or unclassified data may be increasing risk
• Risky user activity, insider-driven exposure patterns, and potential leakage scenarios
• Gaps in data classification, labeling, protection, and governance
• AI-related exposure and oversharing concerns where Microsoft 365 Copilot or third-party AI usage is relevant
