What You Gain with PK Protect Microsoft Purview Integration

Data Discovery v1

Enterprise-Wide Security

Integrate our platform with Microsoft Purview to automatically apply and enforce sensitivity labels. This ensures policy-driven protection for all sensitive data, both inside the Microsoft ecosystem and across the broader enterprise. With PKWARE, no data is left unprotected.

02-Unified-Data-Discovery

Safeguard File Types Not Supported by Microsoft

PK Protect applies labels to file types supported by Purview and provides protection for additional, non-supported data formats. It delivers non-intrusive encryption and redaction of file types Purview can’t label (including .CSV, .doc, .xls). With Purview alone, these files remain vulnerable. Our encryption doesn’t break workflows and ensures files remain accessible to applications that need them.

Enterprise-Grade Speed and Scalability v1

Minimize Cost and Deployment Complexity

Considering a move from Microsoft 365 E3 to Microsoft E5 to gain auto discovery and labeling? PKWARE provides a more cost-effective option. Stay on Microsoft 365 E3 and leverage PK Protect to gain visibility and protection. With our platform there’s no need for extensive tuning or a dedicated administrative resource. Get started quickly with out-of-the-box policies for PII, PCI, HIPAA and more. Easily customize policies for your compliance needs.

Western Union and PK Protect: Elevated Data Security

Western Union leverages PK Protect to discover sensitive data, apply sensitivity labels, and redact confidential information to complement Purview. The platform has scanned over one million files and executes discovery and redaction every four seconds. To date, it has identified 76,000 sensitive files, applied restricted and confidential labels where applicable, and redacted 36,000 credit card numbers.

Highlights of PKWARE’s Microsoft Purview Integration

Centralized Policy-Driven Discovery

Policy-Based Protections Without User Dependence

Rather than relying on labeling that is user-applied and editable, PK Protect applies labels centrally based on sensitive content. Policy-driven labeling and protection means consistent security without relying on or impacting users.

Unified Discovery and Protection

PK Protect provides discovery and protection in one platform to ensure all sensitive data is found, labeled, or remediated. This reduces risk and improves audit readiness.

Microsoft Purview FAQs

Yes, it provides encryption and redaction of older file types not supported by Microsoft labeling including legacy formats like .CSV, .doc, .xls. You can even encrypt DICOM or CAD files.
No. PK Protect protection policies that cannot be overridden by end users and the solution does not depend on users to protect data.
Traditional DLP solutions focus on data egress. They monitor network traffic, block external drives or devices, and enforce perimeter controls. PK Protect takes a different approach. It secures the data itself, wherever it resides or moves. DLP solutions often impact users, and they can often bypass policies, leading to security vulnerabilities. Our platform minimizes the impact to users and protects data while still allowing users to get their jobs done.
PK Protect delivers certificate-free, policy-based encryption without the complexity of traditional key management. The result is fast, compliant data security. Unlike traditional encryption, which is disruptive and resource-heavy, PK Protect simplifies protection by securing files automatically while maintaining seamless access. Organizations can start encrypting sensitive data within days, reducing risk and avoiding costly compliance penalties without impacting productivity.
