Insider Risk Management
Enabling and tuning insider risk policies to detect unusual data exfiltration patterns and risky behaviors.
Environment & context
- Microsoft 365 tenant with mixed workloads (Exchange, SharePoint, Teams).
- Licensing: Business Premium / E3-style environment.
- Goal: Improve security without breaking day-to-day work.
Approach
This walkthrough outlines the practical steps taken to design, test, and roll out this control in a live tenant. It focuses on decisions, trade-offs, and lessons learned rather than every click in the portal.
Outcome
The organization gains early visibility into risky insider behaviors with fewer noisy, low-value alerts.
