Microsoft Purview
Microsoft Purview covers data governance, data loss prevention, compliance management, and information protection across Microsoft 365 and Azure environments. Included in Microsoft 365 E3/E5 and purview compliance add-ons. The pricing model is complex but favorable if you're already in the Microsoft stack.
Purview is the right starting point for Microsoft-heavy organizations that need data governance without adding another vendor - especially if E5 licensing is already in place. When you need deeper data classification or privacy compliance capabilities, BigID or OneTrust address those gaps with more purpose-built depth.
