Unlocking the Power of Microsoft 365 Legal and Compliance Tools

Overview of Microsoft 365 Legal & Compliance Tools

Many organizations invest in separate eDiscovery and legal hold solutions without fully utilizing the robust compliance and legal capabilities built into Microsoft 365. Particularly for organizations with an E5 license, Microsoft 365 offers a comprehensive suite of compliance and legal features that are often underutilized or misunderstood.

As regulatory requirements tighten and data security concerns escalate, having a well-structured legal and compliance framework is crucial for businesses. Microsoft 365 delivers powerful tools such as Purview eDiscovery, Sensitivity Labels, and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) to help organizations stay compliant, enhance security, and manage legal risks efficiently.
