Coming soon to public preview for Microsoft Purview Audit, we’re introducing support for encryption with Microsoft Purview Customer Key.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 98201.
Given the sensitivity of Audit log data, many organizations want to add additional layers of protection, including encryption. Microsoft Purview Customer Key allows organizations to use their own keys giving them control over their encryption. With this update, admins will have the ability to encrypt their Audit log data using Customer Key.
When this will happen
Rollout will begin in late October and is expected to be complete by late November.
