Enhancing Microsoft Purview with XQ’s Zero Trust Data Platform
Microsoft Purview offers robust tools for data classification and governance, but integrating XQ’s Zero Trust Data Platform can significantly enhance its capabilities by adding advanced encryption, policy enforcement, and real-time data control.
Here’s how:
1. Data-Centric Security
Granular Encryption: XQ secures data at the object level with unique, rotating encryption keys, ensuring that classified data remains protected, even if it leaves the Purview ecosystem.
Real-Time Data Protection: While Purview labels and classifies data, XQ enforces those labels by applying real-time encryption and access controls.
2. Enhanced Data Sovereignty
Geofencing Data Access: XQ enables precise control over where classified data can be accessed, helping organizations meet GDPR, DORA, and other sovereignty requirements.
Independent Key Management: XQ’s external key store ensures customers fully control their encryption keys, complementing Purview’s classification policies.
3. Seamless Policy Enforcement
Automated Compliance: XQ enforces Purview’s classification policies by automatically encrypting data based on sensitivity labels and applying role-based access controls.
Adaptive Security: Policies adapt dynamically to changing user contexts, such as device type, location, or time, ensuring continuous compliance.
4. Data Mobility and Control
Cross-Platform Security: XQ secures data even as it moves outside Microsoft environments, enabling secure sharing across hybrid and multi-cloud ecosystems.
Chain of Custody: Provides visibility into data access, modification, and movement, extending Purview’s governance capabilities.
5. Resilient Data Governance
Tamper-Proof Audits: XQ ensures the integrity of Purview’s data governance processes with immutable logs and auditable encryption policies.
Proactive Threat Mitigation: Real-time monitoring and encryption prevent unauthorized access or exfiltration of classified data.
6. Interoperability with Microsoft Purview
Native Integrations: XQ seamlessly integrates with Purview via APIs, enabling organizations to enhance their existing workflows without disruption.
Unified Management: Security and governance policies from Purview are reinforced by XQ’s encryption and monitoring, creating a cohesive data security framework.
Key Benefits for Organizations
Stronger Compliance: Meets and exceeds global data protection standards like GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA.
Increased Security: Protects classified data at every stage—at rest, in transit, and in use.
Operational Agility: Empowers organizations to manage data securely across complex, distributed environments.
Bottom Line: XQ’s Zero Trust Data Platform complements Microsoft Purview by elevating data classification and governance into a fully secure, compliance-ready, and operationally efficient framework. This integration ensures that sensitive data is not just governed—but truly protected and controlled.
