Microsoft Purview
Unified data governance for Microsoft-centric financial institutions — automated data classification, data lineage across Fabric, and compliance manager for regulatory frameworks.
Microsoft Purview is Microsoft's unified data governance platform for financial institutions standardized on Azure, covering data discovery, classification, lineage, and compliance management. Automated financial data classification identifies and protects sensitive PII, account numbers, and financial records, meeting GDPR, CCPA, and banking privacy requirements without manual tagging. Compliance Manager provides pre-built financial regulatory frameworks including GDPR, ISO 27001, and SOX, reducing manual compliance assessment work significantly. Deep integration with Microsoft 365, Fabric, Power BI, and Azure means financial institutions already on the Microsoft ecosystem can deploy governance without additional infrastructure.
