What is the purpose of the Microsoft Compliance Manager?

The purpose of the Microsoft Compliance Manager is to manage compliance assessments and enhance an organization's compliance posture. This tool assists organizations in simplifying compliance management by providing predefined assessments based on various regulatory requirements and standards.

It helps in tracking compliance progress by offering insights into compliance scores, actionable recommendations, and templates that guide organizations on how to meet specific compliance obligations. This focused approach empowers organizations to identify gaps in their compliance strategies and implement necessary changes to ensure adherence to legal, regulatory, and internal standards effectively.

The other options relate to functions that do not align with the primary goal of the Microsoft Compliance Manager. Improving software functionalities or developing new software frameworks are more oriented towards software development and engineering rather than compliance management. Monitoring employee performance on compliance, while relevant to organizational practices, is not the primary function of the Compliance Manager, which focuses more on assessment and reporting.
