Find sensitive data with eDiscovery
Finding sensitive data with eDiscovery in Microsoft Purview. A separate case called Sensitive data with eDiscovery (Premium) turned on. A search with the Sensitive Type condition for IP Address across all sites and a second across all mailboxes, statistics and a top 100 report, and then a Date condition that narrows it down to sensitive data older than 2020. Patterns such as regular expressions belong in a custom sensitive information type, not in the search query.

WHAT ABOUT REGEX?
Patterns belong in a SIT
eDiscovery builds the query in KQL, from conditions and keywords.
KQL supports wildcards, not regular expressions.
A pattern, like your own customer number, becomes a custom
sensitive information type. Search for it by its ID, not its name.
Then the same SIT works in both eDiscovery and DLP.

EDISCOVERY · KNOW YOUR DATA
Find sensitive data with eDiscovery
Data explorer counts sensitive data. eDiscovery tells
you where it is, and lets you combine it with age.
We search sites and mailboxes for IP addresses,
read the top 100, and find what is both sensitive and old.
