Microsoft 365 E5 eDiscovery and Audit

Microsoft 365 eDiscovery and Audit enhances legal and compliance workflows with advanced discovery, investigation, and auditing capabilities across Microsoft 365 data. Manage custodian communications, track acknowledgments, and automate reminders and manager notifications to streamline legal holds and case management. Use integrated search, holds, and review to identify relevant content in Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams. Investigate potential data leakage with insight into user activities and related events, then take remediation actions, including content deletion where permitted. Advanced Audit delivers high-value audit logs with extended retention and crucial events to support forensics and regulatory needs. Built natively in Microsoft Purview, it offers role-based access controls, defensible workflow, and detailed reporting to help reduce risk and support eDiscovery readiness at scale.
