What it is
Microsoft Purview: Data Loss Prevention - Collection and DLP Policies for Intune-Policy Managed Apps is a Microsoft 365 roadmap item published via Microsoft Release Communications. Current status: In development.
What it does
We are introducing a new integrated Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capability for Intune Mobile Application Management (MAM)-protected mobile apps, enabling organizations to apply content‑aware protection policies to sensitive data on mobile devices. This integration ensures that clipboard actions in managed mobile apps are evaluated against Purview DLP policies before sharing is allowed, helping reduce data leakage, insider risk, and exposure to advanced threats across mobile workflows. Additionally, Microsoft Purview Collection policies can be used to govern how sensitive data is being handled in mobile apps.
Why you should care
Board
Security/compliance control — fund Steady before more seats.
CISO
Prioritise as Steady control; wire into IR and GRC evidence paths.
CFO
Map licence or consumption impact to the frozen value case; avoid seat spray.
Adoption
Pilot with a named cohort and measure changed work, not vanity clicks.
Suggested action
Wave 0 first: Security → GRC → Cost & Value → Licence → Adoption. Add to Horizon watchlist with an owner. Pilot only after Steady controls for the affected surface are in place.
12 Panes: 03 Horizon · 04 Security
Communication needed
- Security: Lead review; confirm control mapping before enablement.
- GRC: Update AI/agent register and evidence path; confirm DPIA triggers if personal data is in scope.
- FinOps: Forecast seat or credit impact; align to frozen value case.
- Adoption: Plan cohort messaging, clinics, and success measures.
- Comms: One story for board and staff — what changes, what does not, who owns risk.
Benefits
- May improve productivity on a specific Microsoft 365 surface when permissions and data quality allow.
- Roadmap visibility helps Horizon planning without guessing dates.
Risks
- Status and dates change; treat MRC as directional, not a contract.
- Enabling without Steady controls can amplify overshare or cost leakage.
- Preview or rolling features can change behaviour; fence exploration on Pane 12 Frontier.
