Expert Analysis of Microsoft Purview
Purview rides Microsoft 365 and Azure licensing many buyers already own, so its entry price misleads. The real bill lands on eleven separate meters, from per-asset-day to per-ten-thousand-requests. It reacts after a breach rather than blocking a live prompt, closer to data governance than a runtime guard.
