Microsoft Purview QuickStart
Build a strong data governance foundation in weeks
Data volumes are increasing quickly—and so are compliance risks. Organizations need a practical way to classify, protect and govern sensitive information across Microsoft 365, cloud services and on-prem environments. Without the right tools and guidance, compliance efforts can easily overwhelm internal teams.
Threadfin’s Microsoft Purview QuickStart is a fixed-fee engagement that delivers a working pilot in your environment in 4–6 weeks. Our engineers help you configure Purview’s compliance and governance capabilities so you can discover sensitive data, apply protection policies and build confidence in your compliance strategy.
What It Is
Microsoft Purview is a unified platform for discovering, classifying and protecting sensitive information. It provides organizations with the ability to manage compliance risk, establish modern governance and align with regulatory requirements such as HIPAA, PCI and financial standards.
The QuickStart is designed to help you establish this foundation quickly, without overextending internal IT or compliance teams.
What’s Included:
Environment Prep & Data Discovery
We start by enabling core Purview services including Data Classification, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Insider Risk and Audit. Roles and permissions are set for your team and we run an initial scan on a Microsoft 365 repository such as SharePoint, OneDrive or Teams. Sensitive data and governance gaps are flagged for review.
Sensitivity Labels & DLP Policy Design
Next, we define a baseline sensitivity labeling and protection model. Labels and DLP policies are applied to email, files and Teams to ensure consistent protection. Policies are aligned with your compliance needs, such as PII, HIPAA or financial data.
AI & Copilot Governance Alignment
We evaluate your readiness for Copilot, whether you are in pre-pilot, active pilot or production use. Coverage is validated to reduce risk and we recommend improvements to ensure secure, responsible adoption of AI features.
Admin Empowerment & Handoff
To close out the engagement, we host an interactive session to train your team on managing and scaling Purview. Documentation, a policy workbook and operational guidance are provided so your staff can carry the work forward confidently.
Who It’s For
IT leaders responsible for compliance and risk management
Security and compliance engineers supporting Microsoft 365 environments
