For more information, see Manage data sources in Microsoft Purview and Automatically label your data in Microsoft Purview.

Use Microsoft Purview Data Estate Insights for sensitivity labels

Classifications are similar to subject tags, and are used to mark and identify data of a specific type that's found within your data estate during scanning.

Sensitivity labels enable you to state how sensitive certain data is in your organization. For example, a specific project name might be highly confidential within your organization, while that same term is not confidential to other organizations.

Classifications are matched directly, such as a social security number, which has a classification of Social Security Number.

In contrast, sensitivity labels are applied when one or more classifications and conditions are found together. In this context, conditions refer to all the parameters that you can define for unstructured data, such as proximity to another classification, and % confidence.

Microsoft Purview Data Estate Insights uses the same classifications, also known as sensitive information types, as those used with Microsoft 365 apps and services. This enables you to extend your existing sensitivity labels to assets in the data map.

Note

After you have scanned your source types, give Sensitivity labeling Insights a couple of hours to reflect the new assets.

View sensitivity labeling insights

  1. Open the Microsoft Purview portal.

  2. If you're using the classic Microsoft Purview portal, select the Data estate insights menu item. If you're using the new Microsoft Purview portal open Unified Catalog, select the Health Management drop down, and then select Reports.

  3. Select Sensitivity labels to display the Microsoft Purview Sensitivity labeling insights report.

    Note

    If this report is empty, you may not have extended your sensitivity labels to Microsoft Purview Data Map. For more information, see Labeling in the Microsoft Purview Data Map.
