What can I do about it?

Azure Information Protection (AIP)

 With AIP, you can identity which of your data is sensitive. Microsoft is smart in that it can detect things like credit card numbers and social security numbers within a document. Or you can create custom rules for how to identify sensitive information, so you don't have to read every file you have. Once you've identified the sensitive data, you can classify it by labeling it 'secret' or 'sensitive' or one of the many out of the box labels Microsoft provides you. Then, you can apply protection policies, such as not allowing an employee to copy and paste from certain documents. Or lets say the CEO accidentally sends an internal memo for the execs to the whole company. Even if the other employees receive the file, they won't be able to read it, unless they have the right credentials. Pretty cool, right? Watch the introduction video below to see it in action.
 

 

If you're the IT guy or are just really curious to how it works, watch the two demos below presented by Gagan Gulati, of the Information Protection team at Microsoft.

There realm of possibilities for rule and action creation is truly endless, giving your IT team incredible control over company data, giving them the tools they need to prevent data breaches.
