Microsoft Purview Sensitivity Labels: Sensitivity label grouping modernization coming this fall (?)

on
There is a change coming to Microsoft Purview Information Protection that simplifies sensitivity label architecture. The goal is to make label management easier, more scalable, and less rigid for organizations. The new model will only include standalone labels and sublabels. Parent labels will be replaced by label groups, which act as organizational containers.

New Live package

I've been using the new Messenger Beta for a while, and have not been very impressed by it yet. It wasn’t bad, but there really wasn’t anything new.

Along with messenger, the other live products have also been updated. And the whole package has the look and feel of the new Live services online. It looks like the developers have been collaborating on this one. Way to go :)
