In a DLP policy matches report, what can the results be grouped by?

In a DLP (Data Loss Prevention) policy matches report, the results can be grouped by available Microsoft 365 service locations. This is significant because it allows organizations to analyze where potential data loss threats are arising based on the different locations their services operate in.

By grouping results in this manner, organizations can better understand which regions or service locations are experiencing higher incidents of policy violations, allowing them to adjust their DLP strategies based on specific locations or service data. This targeted approach helps uncover patterns, optimize resource deployment to safeguard sensitive data, and ensure compliance across different jurisdictions.

The option of user roles, geographical regions, and email domains, while relevant in other contexts, do not provide the same level of insight into specific service locations within the Microsoft 365 framework as the grouping by available service locations does. This focus on Microsoft 365 service locations directly correlates with how DLP policies are enforced in cloud environments, streamlining the management of data protection measures.
