MC446129: Microsoft Purview | Communication Compliance: Analyze linked content shared in Teams chats and private channels

Coming soon for Microsoft Purview Communication Compliance, we’re introducing new functionality to enable communication compliance policies to include content shared in Microsoft Teams chats and private channels.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 88845.

Communication Compliance policies that detect violations in Microsoft Teams will now analyze the content of documents shared in chats and private channels for potential policy match. Microsoft Purview Communication Compliance provides the tools to help organizations detect regulatory compliance violations (e.g. SEC or FINRA), such as sensitive or confidential information, harassing or threatening language, and sharing of adult content. Built with privacy by design, usernames are pseudonymized by default, role-based access controls are built in, investigators are opted in by an admin, and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy.
