Microsoft Purview compliance portal: Insider Risk Management- Global exclusions
With this update, all exclusion features currently found under intelligent detections will be relocated to a new tab labeled "Global exclusions" within the insider risk settings. All previously added exclusions in intelligent detections will be migrated to this new tab. The functionality of exclusions remains unchanged. Moreover, admins with appropriate permissions can now add exclusion via defined detection groups, which contain similar entities like domains or file types. This new tab is designed to enhance usability and offers a convenient way to access and manage exclusions. Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates various signals to identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as IP theft, data leakage, and security violations. Insider Risk Management enables customers to create policies based on their own internal policies, governance, and organizational requirements. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy.Feature ID: 185687

Microsoft Purview compliance portal: Insider Risk Management - Enhancements to the unusual activity booster detection
Today, admins can enable the risk score booster “Activity is above user’s usual activity for that day”. With this update, the model to detect unusual activity will be enhanced to improve the ability to detect when a user’s activity is unusual compared to their historical norms. If an admin has opted-in to the “Activity is above user’s usual activity for that day” risk score booster in settings, the organization might see fewer activities with the risk score booster. Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates various signals to identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as IP theft, data leakage, and security violations. Insider Risk Management enables customers to create policies to manage security and compliance. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy.Feature ID: 115493
