Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management vs. DataPatrol

Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management utilizes more than 100 ready-to-use indicators and machine learning models to effectively detect critical security risks originating from insiders, including IP theft, data leakage, and security violations. The solution enables organizations to expedite risk mitigation through enriched investigation tools and Adaptive Protection, which automatically enforces protection controls. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy.

DataPatrol is visual data security software built to prevent internal data leaks through visible, traceable watermarking. By overlaying user-specific watermarks directly on screens, printed pages, and mobile devices, DataPatrol gives organizations a constant, visible deterrent against unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, while making every leak traceable back to its source. Organizations in finance, healthcare, banking, and government rely on DataPatrol to protect confidential data and meet strict compliance requirements.
