Adaptive Protection
Adaptive Protection lets Insider Risk Management assign users an insider risk level: Elevated, Moderate or Minor. DLP, Conditional Access and Data Lifecycle Management use the level to apply stricter controls to the few users who are risky, while everyone else works as usual. Quick setup creates an insider risk policy, DLP policies for Teams and Exchange and for devices in simulation mode, a Conditional Access policy in report-only mode and a retention policy. Ronny is blocked from copying a file to USB, Eli is not.

ADAPTIVE PROTECTION
Stricter rules, only for the risky few
THE DLP RING SO FAR
The same rules for everyone, no matter who they are.
WITH ADAPTIVE PROTECTION
Users IRM flags as risky get stricter rules automatically.
Everyone else works as before.
Protection follows the person's risk, not only the content.

When turned on, Adaptive Protection detects users who match your
defined insider risk levels. If those risk levels are included as a condition
of a Data Loss Prevention policy or a Conditional Access policy, the
policy will apply the configured actions to that user's activity.
Pseudonymization of usernames (if turned on) isn't preserved for users
from Adaptive Protection who have alerts or activity appear outside
Insider Risk Management.
