BigID and Microsoft expand how organizations see and secure their data across the entire data estate.
Announced at Microsoft Ignite 2025, BigID’s new integration with Microsoft-Ansicht Verwaltung der Datensicherheitsmaßnahmen (DSPM) via Microsoft Sentinel provides customers with deeper visibility and stronger control across Microsoft and non-Microsoft environments, all within the Microsoft environment.
Why Unified Data Visibility Matters Now
Enterprises are operating in a moment of massive transformation. Einführung von KI is accelerating, data footprints are multiplying across clouds and collaboration platforms, and every new system introduces more sensitive data to protect. Security teams need visibility—not just into where sensitive data lives, but who can access it, how it’s used, and what risks sit beneath the surface.
Microsoft customers are increasingly looking for a seamless, integrated way to understand sensitive data across Microsoft 365, Azure, Copilot, and beyond. As data sprawls across hybrid and multi-cloud ecosystems, traditional tools can’t keep up. Blind spots grow. Risk compounds. And organizations lose the context required to take meaningful action.
Where Visibility Breaks Down
When data sprawl outpaces security controls, risk visibility fractures.
Organizations face a familiar challenge. They use tools to govern data, but not a unified insight to govern it effectively. Sensitive data sits across SaaS apps, cloud platforms, data lakes, and ML pipelines. Microsoft Purview DSPM provides powerful posture management within the Microsoft ecosystem, but customers increasingly need broader context, especially as data flows into AI tools, engineering environments, and modern data platforms.
Most organizations grapple with:
- Fragmented visibility across hybrid and multi-cloud environments
- Limited context around data sensitivity, access, and identity
- Incomplete insight into external data sources like Databricks
- Difficulty prioritizing risk due to lack of enriched metadata
This fragmentation increases exposure, adds operational strain, and reduces confidence in AI initiatives. Without deeper context, security teams react to risks instead of anticipating them.
AI-Driven Discovery and Context for Microsoft Purview DSPM
BigID’s new integration with Microsoft Purview DSPM brings AI-driven discovery, advanced classification, and contextual risk insights directly into the environment that Microsoft practitioners are using every day.
Through a connection with Microsoft Sentinel, enriched data signals from BigID flow into Purview DSPM — helping organizations eliminate blind spots, extend DSPM coverage, and prioritize risk across Microsoft 365, Azure, Copilot, Databricks, and other modern data sources.
By combining Microsoft’s governance and security framework with BigID’s deep data context, organizations can:
- Verlängern DSPM coverage across Microsoft and non-Microsoft platforms
- Add AI-driven discovery and classification for sensitive data
- Gewinnen unified visibility across hybrid and multi-cloud environments
- Priorisieren and act on risk with contextual identity and access insights
Enterprises need more than isolated point solutions. They need integrated, enterprise-scale data intelligence that aligns with their existing platforms. By integrating BigID’s signals into Microsoft Purview through the Sentinel Data Lake, we’re helping organizations eliminate blind spots, strengthen data security posture, and simplify operations while staying inside the Microsoft ecosystem.
–Ian Williamson, SVP of Alliances at BigID
Our collaboration with BigID reflects our shared commitment to helping customers strengthen their data security posture. By integrating BigID’s data intelligence into Microsoft Purview DSPM through the Microsoft Sentinel Data Lake, organizations can gain unified visibility and deeper context across their data estate while continuing to build on their natively integrated Microsoft investments.
