Data security with Microsoft Purview

Stay on top of your data with Managed Data Security

Labels set. DLP policies activated. Microsoft Purview up and running. And still no idea who your data is out on a date with?

As an enabler of AI-powered workflows, our Managed Data Security service makes sure your measures actually work – with regular monitoring, best-practice assessments, clear reporting, and concrete recommendations for action.

AI agents on. Data security off?

Companies are increasingly relying on autonomous workflows and Copilot scenarios. But when AI agents handle data without control, things can go wrong fast. Preventing that takes real data security – with labels, DLP rules, and continuous monitoring.

Because data security is not a set-and-forget project. If you just switch on policies and hope for the best, you don't have security – you have license costs.

The result:

Not Enough Visibility

Tools deliver plenty of signals. But most teams lack the resources to evaluate them regularly.

Not Enough Assessment

Not every anomaly is a risk. And not every policy is automatically useful just because it's active.

Not Enough Proof

If you don't document your measures, you can barely prove their effectiveness – internally, to management, or for audits.

Data security that doesn't just run – it delivers

With our Managed Data Security service, your existing Purview configuration becomes a continuously reviewed security process. We look at where friction, risk, or optimization potential arises in day-to-day operations – and prepare the findings so security teams, management, and internal stakeholders can act on them.

Labels & DLP Policies in Focus

We continuously check whether classifications and DLP rules actually work in everyday practice. Where do anomalies occur? Which rules create too much noise? And where should policies be fine-tuned?

So your labels actually do their job.

Best Practices Instead of “Just Winging It”

We regularly benchmark your existing data security configuration against best practices, protection needs, and organizational reality. Not everything that's technically possible makes sense. And not everything that once made sense still does.

Because good data security is always tailored.

Regular Reports for Better Decisions

We deliver monthly reports with the key findings, prioritized risks, and concrete recommendations for action. Clearly presented, decision-ready, and without the usual dashboard fluff.

For measures that truly improve your data security.

Three good reasons for Managed Data Security

Secure AI Workloads

Controlled data flows, effective policies, and clear evidence as the foundation for GenAI, Copilot, and AI agents working with company data.

Operational Relief

Regular assessment and preparation of relevant Purview signals, so your team saves time on analysis and gains more time for real security work.

Audit-Ready Documentation

Monthly reports on the effectiveness of your data security measures, supporting you with evidence requirements around NIS2, DORA, and internal audits.

Optional add-on: 8x5 incident handling

Some data security events shouldn't have to wait for the monthly report. That's why we optionally offer incident handling during your core business hours:

Insider Risk & High-Level DLP Alert Handling
We analyze relevant IRM and high-level DLP alerts, assess context and risk, and derive the right next steps.
Enrichment via Defender XDR
We enrich data security alerts with additional signals from Defender XDR to better identify correlations and assess risks more thoroughly.
Escalation to Compliance
We promptly escalate relevant events to your compliance department – with context and assessment, so they can be handled further from a regulatory or organizational perspective.

From Data Security MVP to Managed Service.

Our Managed Data Security service builds on an existing Data Security MVP (Minimum Viable Product). Check here whether this applies to your IT environment.

Managed Data Security Checklist

Microsoft Purview is already in use
Labels and classifications are actively used
DLP policies are defined and rolled out
Defaults for data flows are in place

All checked? Then we can get started. Not quite there yet? No drama. Of course, we'll also implement our Data Security MVP for you – laying the groundwork for Managed Data Security.

Fast onboarding. Continuous optimization.

Data security doesn't have to be a mammoth project: with water, you get to Managed Data Security in just five steps.

Check readiness

We review your existing Purview and data security baseline and check whether all prerequisites for our service are met.

Onboard the service

We align on data sources, access, reporting structure, points of contact, and, if needed, escalation paths.

Continuous monitoring

We check labels, DLP policies, anomalies, and changes in your data security landscape.

Monthly reports

You receive a clear report with findings, risks, trends, and recommendations.

Targeted optimization

Based on the reports, we derive concrete improvements so your team knows what the next steps are.
