The Microsoft Fabric and Purview teams are thrilled to participate in the European Microsoft Fabric Community Conference<\/a> September 15-18, 2025, in Vienna, Austria. This event is Microsoft\u2019s largest tech conference in Europe, where data professionals gather to connect and share insights on data, security, governance, and AI transformation. With more than 130 breakout sessions, 10 workshops, and two keynotes, the conference is a hub for exploring the future of data and AI.<\/p>\n

Secure your data with Microsoft Purview<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

AI innovation is transforming every industry, business process, and individual experience. As organizations adopt AI, one truth remains constant:<\/p>\n

Your AI is only as good as your data<\/h2>\n

If poor quality, incomplete, biased, or sensitive data is fed into AI models, the results will be equally flawed, leading to sensitive data leaks and inaccurate predictions\u2014both of which create potentially harmful outcomes and erode trust. High quality, governed, and secured data<\/a> enables AI systems to deliver reliable insights and instill confidence in data usage and AI usage. Consider a team building an AI-powered customer service app. Without trustworthy data, the AI could give incorrect answers or expose sensitive information. In fact, about 99% of organizations have already experienced sensitive data exposure through AI tools, underscoring the urgent need for robust safeguards.1<\/sup> Compounding this challenge, many companies address data security and governance in silos, using separate point solutions for each, and different tools across cloud platforms, which makes it harder to ensure data discovery, quality, and protection consistently.<\/p>\n

As organizations prepare for an AI future, they require a comprehensive approach that solves both security and governance together. Microsoft Purview offers a modern, unified approach to help organizations secure and govern data across their heterogenous data estate. Purview consolidates security, governance, and compliance into a single solution. Purview also bridges different tools across different data sources like Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, and Microsoft Fabric<\/a>, streamlining oversight and reducing complexity across the estate.<\/p>\n

At FabCon Vienna, we are announcing new Microsoft Purview innovations for Fabric to help you seamlessly secure and confidently activate your data for AI. These updates span data security and data governance, allowing Fabric users to both<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Discover risks and protect data in Fabric<\/li>\n
  2. Improve data discovery and quality across their Fabric estate<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Discover risks and protect data<\/h2>\n

    In today\u2019s AI-powered world, data is both a powerful asset and a growing risk. Microsoft Purview helps organizations protect their data holistically by integrating Information Protection, Data Loss Prevention, Insider Risk Management, and Data Security Posture Management<\/a> for AI. These tools work together to classify and secure sensitive data, prevent leaks, detect insider threats, and uncover AI-related risks. Paired with Microsoft Fabric, Purview builds upon existing data security such as OneLake Security while enabling innovation. Here are a few examples how Purview secures your Fabric estate:<\/p>\n

    Microsoft Purview Information Protection policies for Fabric items\u00a0and Data Loss Prevention for structured data in OneLake<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Now generally available, Microsoft Purview Information Protection policies allow Fabric users to manually label Fabric items, with access controls automatically enforced according to pre-defined protection policies set by administrators. Data Loss Prevention policies on structured data in OneLake is also now generally available, preventing data oversharing in Fabric through policy tip triggering when sensitive data is detected in assets. <\/p>\n

    Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management indicators for Power BI<\/h3>\n

    Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management<\/a> is now generally available for Microsoft Fabric and extends its detection capabilities to Fabric by introducing built-in risk indicators for user activities in Power BI, such as viewing, downloading, exporting, and managing sensitivity labels for Power BI artifacts. These indicators can be applied directly to data theft and data leak policies, giving organizations stronger signals to spot suspicious behavior. By correlating signals across different activities, Insider Risk Management helps uncover potential insider threats such as intellectual property theft, unauthorized data sharing, or policy violations in Fabric.<\/p>\n

    Microsoft Purview Data Risk Assessments for Fabric<\/h3>\n

    Within Purview’s Data Security Posture Management<\/a> for AI, Data Risk Assessments will now support discovering overshared Fabric data (dashboards, reports, and more) in preview. Fabric customers will benefit from Data Risk Assessments by easily identifying what data is most at risk of leakage within Fabric. A default assessment will be created to identify overshared Fabric data in the top 100 accessed Fabric workspaces.<\/p>\n
