DATA GOVERNANCE – MICROSOFT PURVIEW

Data Governance, Protection, and Compliance

Gain real control over your corporate environment

Frequently Asked Questions

Microsoft Purview is a data governance, compliance, and protection platform that allows you to classify, map, protect, and monitor information across Microsoft 365, Azure, SaaS applications, and hybrid environments. It centralizes security and compliance policies, providing complete visibility into where your data resides and how it’s being used.

Purview enables the identification of sensitive data, the application of retention policies, data loss prevention (DLP), and the maintenance of audit trails. This facilitates compliance with LGPD (Brazilian General Data Protection Law), ISO 27001, and regulatory audit requirements, with control over data lifecycle and access.

Directly with Microsoft, the client receives the technology. With Skynova, they receive: structured implementation, definition of business-aligned policies, continuous operation and active governance, and integration with other layers (backup, auditing, security). In other words, it goes from “installed tool” to “governance in action”.

It works beyond Microsoft 365, enabling data governance in hybrid and multicloud environments. This is critical for companies that operate with multiple providers or have on-premises workloads. This point connects directly with Skynova’s strategy of hybrid and multicloud environments.
