Microsoft Purview | Data Loss Prevention – Enhanced incident communication with DLP email templates

Coming soon for Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP): Enhance your DLP incident management with the new send email notification remediation action and customize email templates in Purview DLP and Defender. Use dynamic variables and tokens to easily create and maintain consistent and efficient email communications, complete with an audit trail.

Utilize these email templates to take actions such as:

  • Informing end-users or their managers about incidents, severity, or the analyst’s recommendations.
  • Managing remediation efforts by sending follow-up notifications to end users with due dates.
  • Keeping analysts informed about incident updates and assignments.
  • Notifying approvers of pending items with ease.
