Welcome! This Skill is part of the Microsoft 365 Certified: Teams Administrator Associate course and covers the following section within the MS-700 blueprint:
Configure and manage a Teams environment > Manage security and compliance settings for Teams
Sensitivity Labeling
Our first video will discuss why sensitivity labels are used in the Microsoft environment, focusing on Microsoft Teams.
Knowledge Check
True or False: A Microsoft 365 E3 license will provide access to the automatic sensitivity labeling feature.
Create Sensitivity Labels
Next, we will create custom Sensitivity Labels. You can also choose to use a short list of predefined labels that Microsoft has already created.
Note: Applying a sensitivity label to a container (such as a Team, Group, or SharePoint site) enforces settings like privacy, external sharing, and access control. However, files and emails within the container do not automatically inherit these label settings. Users must apply sensitivity labels to individual items separately, if needed.
Knowledge Check
When creating a Sensitivity Label, within the Access Control setting, what options besides "Always" are available for offline access? (Choose 2)
Enable Sensitivity Labels for Containers
What if you create a sensitivity label and the "Groups and Sites" options are greyed out? This option becomes available in our tenant when we enable sensitivity labels for containers and synchronize those labels. In this video, we go through that process!
Knowledge Check
What does the cmdlet Execute-AzureAdLabelSync do when executed?
Publishing Sensitivity Labels
Earlier, we created sensitivity labels, but users cannot utilize them yet. Publishing sensitivity labels makes them visible and usable across Microsoft 365 apps and services. In this video, we will go through the publishing process.
Note: You might have noticed no option to delete a Label Publishing policy within the GUI. If you want to delete a Label Publishing policy, you can only do so within PowerShell.
# Connects to the Microsoft Purview
Connect-IPPSSession -UserPrincipalName lalo@ourlabdemo.com
# Deletes a Label Publishing Policy named "Super Top Secret"
Remove-LabelPolicy -Identity "Super Top SecreThis should remove the label policy. Remember that deleting a Label Publishing Policy only affects who can apply the label moving forward; it does not remove the label from content already applied. Take caution with removing and deleting labels. Below is a good article to read over a cup of coffee.
Knowledge Check
What is the purpose of a label publishing policy?
Sensitivity Labels Demo
Alright, now that we have all the pieces together, let's go through a demo of sensitivity labels in Teams, Word, and Outlook.
Knowledge Check
In our demo, when Thomas attempted to open a Word document with the "Internal Use Only" sensitivity label, what message did he receive?
Validation
Well done on completing the Skill! You've reached the Validation section. Now, it's time to answer the following questions based on what you've learned. If you miss any, feel free to revisit the videos above.
Question 1
Knowledge Check

Sensitivity Labeling
0:00Sensitivity labels keep your content safe by making sure only the right people
0:05in your organization can edit it and also that you're following company
0:09policies and regulations.
0:11We're talking about content here.
0:14We're talking about teams.
0:16Our meetings.
0:19Along with chats files and emails.
0:27Let's say you and I work for an organization called would you ink.
0:31They say we have data throughout our infrastructure.
0:36They have to do a product launch announcements.
0:38Or maybe quarter to sales performance reports.
0:41Or customer contracts and pricing agreements.
0:45So many data here could be critical and very important and should be kept
0:49confidential.
0:51And sensitivity labels can help us accomplish this.
0:56So let's say we had these labels.
0:58We have public internal and also confidential.
1:01Let's say this data here.
1:04The product launch announcements.
1:06Is public information and available on our websites for anyone can get to it.
1:11Or in other words, there are no secrets here.
1:14So we could sign a public label to that data.
1:17Now our quarter to sales performance reports is a different story.
1:23Customers or the public should never see that.
1:26So maybe we assign that data a label of internal.
1:30Then we have customer contracts and pricing agreements.
1:34Which you can imagine should be kept confidential and away from prime ice.
1:39So maybe we assign this type of data a confidential label.
1:43So here any users there are assigned this internal label.
1:48We'll have the ability to see that sales performance report.
1:52Maybe your leadership team has access to that confidential label.
1:57And therefore they will be the only ones that would see that customer contract
2:01or pricing agreements data.
2:03So again, we're keeping our content safe by ensuring that only certain people
2:08can access certain data.
2:10So why are sensitivity labels important?
2:15We saw in a previous scenario they protect sensitive data.
2:20So we have the ability to apply encryption, apply watermarking,
2:25along with restriction actions by preventing the copying of any sensitive data.
2:30Sensitivity labels also ensure that any sensitive information is handled
2:36accordingly to any internal policies or regulations.
2:39We also can regulate or have control of access.
2:43So here we can control who can access the label content or maybe participate in
2:48label beings.
2:50These labels also provide visual indicators.
2:53So the user can see the label applied.
2:55So in the event that they see confidential, it allows that user to understand
3:00the sensitivity of the information they're handling.
3:04Our focus is Microsoft Teams.
3:09Sensitivity labels can be applied using several different key areas of the
3:13Microsoft environment for just focusing on teams.
3:17One of them being a team itself.
3:19So here we can control who can access all the content within that team.
3:24We can also use these labels to protect our meetings.
3:27We can't protect our meeting invites, along with the team's meetings and chat.
3:34Our sensitivity labels can also be used within SharePoint sites and also One
3:39Drive accounts.
3:42So for our users, any files that are shared in private chats are stored within
3:51OneDrive.
3:53Any files shared in a team channel are stored within SharePoint.
4:02So we can definitely use sensitivity labels to protect the data in both One
4:08Drive and also SharePoint.
4:11They can also be used in meeting templates.
4:13So a meeting template is a bunch of settings that are pre-configured for a
4:17meeting that user could use.
4:19So let's say this was our template here.
4:22Maybe this template has a sensitivity label of internal.
4:27When a user creates a meeting with this template, the label of internal is
4:32automatically applied to that meeting.
4:35And finally we can use sensitivity labels to encrypt our voicemail messages.
4:41Now the creation of these sensitivity labels is done through Microsoft PerView.
4:45So here we go on the solutions and on the solutions, the option that we want to
4:50go with is this information protection.
4:53Then we should see an option to create this sensitivity label.
4:58You and I would definitely do that in a future video.
5:03In order for the user's environment to be able to use these sensitivity labels,
5:07our first step is to create these labels.
5:10But then labels must be published via label policies to those users.
5:17To those users that will be using these labels.
5:20You also see documentation that these labels can be applied manually or
5:25automatically.
5:28So manually a user will select and apply and label themselves.
5:36So automatically as you would assume the user is not doing this, policies are
5:42used to determine if that data should be labeled or not based on certain
5:47criteria.
5:48As usual there is licensing involved.
5:53Let's go to a document here and now we show this link below this video.
5:57We have a section here, let me expand our table so it's easy to see.
6:03So we can see the licenses that are needed in order to enable manual
6:07sensitivity labeling.
6:09If we go back to our document here we see other licenses that are required for
6:12certain features.
6:14Like for schedule meetings, if we scroll down a bit, for team online meetings.
6:22And that's what I look for, the automatic sensitivity labeling.
6:26We can see that the license requirement is different for the automatic
6:30sensitivity labeling.
6:32So in this video we discuss sensitivity labels along with the functionality
6:36within Microsoft Teams, along with the licensing requirements.
6:41In the following video you and I will go to the creation of a sensitivity label
6:45.
6:45[BLANK_AUDIO]
Create Sensitivity Labels
0:00All right, next we'll go to the creation of a sensitivity label with the
0:03Microsoft purview.
0:04All right, here we go on the solutions.
0:07We'll go to information protection and we go on the sensitivity labels.
0:14All right, we see some here.
0:20The super top secret one is one that was playing with offline.
0:23So what we're going to do is create a label.
0:26We'll call this internal use only.
0:28We'll also give that the name or display name of the label.
0:32So name is what the admin will see in the admin portal.
0:37And display name is the name that your users will see.
0:40All right, so let's scroll down a bit.
0:44We see for label priority, there by default, this label of internal use only
0:49will have the
0:50highest priority.
0:52This comes into play for us.
0:53We have multiple sensitivity labels that could apply to a document or an email,
0:58for example.
1:00So here we can put a description for users.
1:02So I'll put that there so we can see what it says there.
1:06And for the demo, I'll do the same for admins.
1:08And I'll give it a color, that one there.
1:12And at this point, we're nuts.
1:17So next we have to define our scope.
1:19We'll determine both the settings that we can configure for a label and also
1:27where that
1:27label will be available to what apps and services.
1:31We see here that labels can be applied to data assets and also containers.
1:35And to explain what a container is, I have this slide.
1:40So Microsoft Teams, a team is treated as a container.
1:45So when you and I apply a sensitivity label to a team, we're setting the
1:49security and
1:50compliance controls for the entire team container, imagine individual measures
1:55or files.
1:56So meaning that our container includes items like the team itself, channel
2:01chats and posts,
2:02the associated SharePoint sites, those files stored in those team channels.
2:07And also the associated Microsoft 365 group, which really gives us the group
2:11membership
2:12to that team.
2:15So our data can be applied to files along with other data assets.
2:19So here we're talking about the files within the office applications, word,
2:23cell, PowerPoint,
2:24along with other Microsoft services.
2:27Our labels can also apply to emails.
2:29And our labels can also be applied to meetings.
2:32We also can apply labels to groups and sites.
2:36Now in your environment, this may be grayed out.
2:39And that would be because we have enabled sensitivity labels for containers.
2:44In the following video, we'll go over how we can enable sensitivity labels.
2:48So therefore groups and sites is an option for you.
2:52All right.
2:53So we'll go ahead and choose nuts.
2:55So here we can configure our protection settings.
2:58So one being control access.
3:00This setting is really for emails or media invites or documents.
3:04So here we're trying to prevent someone or really unauthorized people from
3:08accessing the
3:09data that has this label.
3:12We also have the ability to apply content marking.
3:15So here we can add watermarks, headers, or footers to content for our users
3:19when they're
3:20using the office applications.
3:23We also have protect team meetings and chats.
3:26So here we're going to label parent events team meeting options along with team
3:30chat.
3:31All right.
3:32We choose nuts.
3:33So let's be configured access control settings, which really allows us to
3:37enable you and I
3:38to define who can access these items.
3:40It does have this label assigned to it.
3:42And also what they can do with the content.
3:44So we have two options here.
3:46I SDM can assign the permission right now.
3:49So I know who exactly can access the content and what permissions they have
3:54when these labels
3:55apply.
3:56We also have the option to let the user decide.
3:59So whoever applies this label at that time can specify the access.
4:03Therefore, given that user that option and that's a baby.
4:07Or for now we'll keep the assigned permissions now.
4:10So here we can set a time limit for how long users can access the content.
4:15But never as you would assume did not expire.
4:17We can specify a certain date or a number of days after the labels apply.
4:23We also have allow offline access.
4:25So here folks will be able to open these files or content, even if their device
4:30is offline.
4:31I can choose never here requiring that user to be online to access that content
4:37.
4:37Or we can choose only for number of days.
4:39You would choose always.
4:44So next we'll assign permissions.
4:46So here we're going to specify what individuals or groups and the permissions
4:50they have.
4:51So here these users or groups are the folks that can open, edit content.
4:56It's a sign is labeled.
4:58From our demo, I'll pick two users.
5:00So I choose add users or groups.
5:04What I'm going to do is choose Pedro.
5:12We'll choose add.
5:13Let me add someone else.
5:15I'll pick Sierra.
5:18Choose add there.
5:19So this point I have two users.
5:24Also have the ability to modify their permissions.
5:28But you save.
5:32You can see those combinations of permissions is co-author.
5:35You also have the option to use dynamic watermarking.
5:39So what this would do is add the user's name to document as a watermark.
5:45So therefore discouraging any leaks or unauthorized sharing of that data.
5:51We also have double key encryption.
5:53So here we're adding an extra layer of encryption by requiring two keys to
5:58access that content.
5:59So one key is held by Microsoft and the other key is held by your organization.
6:04But for now I choose next.
6:06Now here we have different settings we can apply using a sensitivity label.
6:12Now you may already know what these settings do when we go over them later when
6:15we go through
6:16meeting posse.
6:18But for a demo I'm going to choose one.
6:20Just prevent copying and forwarding or meeting content.
6:23So we see here the participants will not be able to copy for meeting chat
6:27messages, links,
6:28live captions, transcripts or the content.
6:30All right.
6:32So we choose next here.
6:34We have the option to all the label files and emails but we'll skip that for
6:37now.
6:38We choose next.
6:39Here we have other protection settings.
6:41We have privacy and external user access.
6:45So here we can control if a team or group is public, meaning anyone can join or
6:49private.
6:50So let's go ahead and choose that one.
6:52We also have external sharing and conditional access.
6:57So here we can control labeled SharePoint sites or teams allow sharing with
7:01users outside
7:02of the organization.
7:03Then we have private teams discover ability and share content settings.
7:09Here we can do things like control if private teams are visible in search
7:12results.
7:13We choose next here.
7:15Now notice wherever options you choose here will influence what you'll see
7:20beneath here
7:21underneath groups and sites.
7:23So if I choose next here we see our options.
7:27So here for privacy we'll go ahead and mark the team as private.
7:32Let's look at external user access.
7:35Here we can allow group owners to add people outside of the organization.
7:39I'll leave that in check for now.
7:41We'll choose next.
7:43We'll go ahead and check this box.
7:44Therefore not allowing users to discover any private teams that have this label
7:52applied.
7:53And here we can control which type of teams can be invited into shared channels
7:57when using
7:57sensitive labels.
7:58So we have internal only to have our block and any external team.
8:04After those outside the organization for being invited to a shared channel.
8:07We also have same label only means the only team that have the same sensitivity
8:12label can
8:13be invited to a shared channel and also private teams.
8:17This blocks any public teams from being invited to a shared channel meaning
8:21only private teams
8:22can be used.
8:23All right for now we'll go ahead and choose internal only.
8:27We'll choose next.
8:28And at this point we'll go ahead and create our label.
8:31All right so we see this currently submitting.
8:37So we see here there are sensitive labels was created.
8:41In order for the sensitivity label to be used by users we have to publish these
8:46labels.
8:47So we definitely will do this later.
8:49For now I'll choose the uncreated policy yet and then we'll hit done.
8:53So now we'll scroll down a bit you see a new label called internal use only.
9:01So we notice here that we have a priority column.
9:04A priority is a time breaker.
9:09In the event we have two more labels that apply to the same object at the same
9:13time.
9:14So here the lower the number means a higher priority.
9:24In this section you now enter the creation of sensitivity labels.
9:28In the following video I want to go over what you need to do in the event that
9:31your groups
9:32and flights option that we saw earlier is grayed out.
9:35[BLANK_AUDIO]
Enable Sensitivity Labels for Containers
0:00In this video, we'll talk about why the option groups and sites would not be
0:03available when
0:04you're creating a sensitivity label.
0:06Let's get started in 11.
0:08Previously, when you and I went to the creation of a sensitivity label, we have
0:12mentioned
0:13that this option here may be grayed out.
0:15There being groups and sites.
0:17We have a note here.
0:20To apply sensitivity labels to teams, SharePoint sites, and Microsoft 365
0:24groups, you must
0:25complete these steps.
0:28These steps allow us to enable sensitivity labels for containers.
0:34Therefore allowing us to apply security settings at the team level.
0:39Remember, a team is treated as a container.
0:43So our container includes the team itself, for a channel and post, the
0:48associated SharePoint
0:49site with that team, to the file stored in that team, and also the underlying
0:53group
0:53membership, which is the Microsoft 365 group.
0:58You may also see this message here when we go to sensitivity labels with the
1:02Microsoft
1:02Preview, at the same message you and I saw in the previous step.
1:07So again, you may or may not see this message.
1:09But after we complete the steps that we're about to go through, what should
1:13happen is
1:14that you should no longer see that message in groups and sites should then be
1:17available.
1:18All right, so let's go here.
1:21All right, so the document that Microsoft takes you to is this one right here.
1:26So we choose this.
1:28So go ahead and click on here how to enable sensitivity labels for containers
1:31and synchronize
1:32labels.
1:34So we can see here all this is a one time procedure.
1:39So keep in mind someone before you might have done this already.
1:42So we have our first link here that will open up a new tab.
1:46And the first thing that we have to do is to enable sensitivity labels support
1:51with the
1:52Empire shell.
1:53So let's go to step number one here.
1:55If we haven't done so already, the first thing that we have to do is install
1:59the graph
1:59modules in order to run the command list in this documentation.
2:04Now Microsoft Graph is the API or an application programming interface from
2:12Microsoft that
2:13allows us to access data across different Microsoft 365 services.
2:19The Microsoft Graph connects to different services like Android E, Outlook,
2:23Teams, SharePoint,
2:24OneDrive.
2:26So here the first command installs the stable version of the Microsoft Graph
2:31module.
2:32And the second command here where it does versions install the beta version of
2:36the graph
2:37module, which we have newer experimental command letter features.
2:42All right, next we're going to connect to our tenant.
2:45Sorry about that.
2:47My pen jumped.
2:49Here we are connecting our session to Microsoft Graph.
2:53Then here we are requesting permission to read and write directory data like
2:58for example,
2:59users, groups.
3:01Also keep in mind here, you may be prompted to be authenticated.
3:05Now here for number three, we're going to fetch the current group settings to
3:09the Microsoft
3:10Entra organization and also display the current group settings.
3:14You can see here that we're creating a variable.
3:17We are retrieving directory settings.
3:19Let me scroll to the right here.
3:22We want to filter the output here to finally setting that has a property name,
3:27enable,
3:27and my P labels.
3:29This setting if true, sensitivity labels can be applied to Teams, groups, and
3:35SharePoint
3:35sites.
3:36Once, the sensitivity labels cannot be applied.
3:40We will see that when we run this command here, which is place the actual
3:44values of those
3:45settings.
3:46All right, I should run down a bit more.
3:51Now in the event, then no group settings were created for your organization,
3:57then you will
3:57get an empty screen.
3:58If that's the case, you didn't have to create those settings.
4:02So I just browse to this URL to see exactly how it's done.
4:07All right, so we'll scroll down a bit.
4:11We can see here, we have to install those same modules that we saw before.
4:14Then we'll go to this section, create settings at the directory level.
4:19This command will fetch or retrieve all available templates that define
4:24settings that we can
4:25apply at the directory level.
4:29Everything that we want to see the template, they are available that we can use
4:32to configure
4:33settings within the Microsoft 365 environment.
4:36If we scroll down here, we see the expectation of what we should see.
4:45Let me show you what happened to me.
4:47So you can see here, I ran that command, but unfortunately it did not give me
4:56the display
4:56name, as we can see right here.
5:02This could be because new versions of the graph beta module may have changed
5:06the output
5:06formatting, but no big deal because you can add this to the command format
5:13table with
5:14ID display name and description.
5:17And now we see we have the same information as we saw in our document.
5:21This group that unified is our settings template used to control Microsoft 365
5:27groups across
5:28our entire directory.
5:30These Microsoft 365 groups are used behind a curtain for Microsoft Teams, for
5:35all of
5:35the group mailboxes, for SharePoint team sites, and that's the reason these
5:38templates
5:39use.
5:40All right, going down further, in this first line, what we're doing is finding
5:48the ID
5:49of that group unified template.
5:53Then here in our second line, we're getting the full template details by using
6:00that ID.
6:01So here, this variable is going to hold the ID that was found in the previous
6:08step.
6:08And here we see a screenshot of where I executed those same commands previously
6:12in my environment.
6:14All right, going down further.
6:17Here, we're creating a object that contains values to be used for that
6:22directory setting.
6:23What this is doing is creating a PowerShell hash table that is storing
6:28different parameters
6:30like the usage URL we see here.
6:32And also that parameter enable MIP labels.
6:35We're also going to set that to true.
6:37Therefore, enabling those system TIPD labels for Microsoft Teams and SharePoint
6:41sites.
6:42And further down, we're creating our directory setting.
6:47So here we're creating a new directory setting using the object params that we
6:53saw earlier.
6:55So once again, we have our template ID, which has the ID of that group that
7:01unified template
7:03in our organization.
7:04Then we have our two settings that we want to apply.
7:07All right, so I'm going to show you a screenshot.
7:11This is where I create that object.
7:13Now here, we're seeing the ID of the new setting that we just created.
7:18And also the template ID that was used to create that setting.
7:23So we can see here the template ends with three zero four B.
7:27And if I go to a previous slide, we can see the same ID here associated with
7:34that group
7:35that unified template.
7:40And next we want to read those values using these commands here.
7:45So in our first line, we're creating a variable.
7:48We are retrieving other current directory settings.
7:52But we want to filter the output with the display name is equal to group that
7:58unified.
7:58Then we want to see the values with those settings.
8:03And the output should look something like this.
8:06So we can see enable MIP labels.
8:08It's set to true.
8:09And we also have our uses guidelines URL fit to the URL that we defined earlier
8:16.
8:16So again, you may or may not have to perform these steps in the event going
8:20back to our
8:20original document.
8:22You ran this command, let it instead of getting output, you receive an empty
8:26screen.
8:27All right, going back to our first document that we looked at.
8:31But this points that one is complete.
8:33So next we have to synchronize our sensitivity labels to Microsoft inch righty.
8:39So we're doing a synchronizing these labels.
8:41They're available across different services like Microsoft teams, SharePoint,
8:46exchange,
8:46and also Microsoft intro.
8:48All right, so let's go over to this document to see what that looks like.
8:52All right, so let's go ahead and go step one.
8:55We have to import the module to manage a change of mine.
9:00Now documentation states that this is sending you in to the Microsoft purview
9:06security
9:06compliance center, which is not a Microsoft purview compliance portal.
9:11And I want to enter in our username.
9:13So in fact, let me show you a screenshot here.
9:16So here we see where I import the module is where I am logging into my session.
9:22Then once logged in, step two is not completed.
9:28Now we have to complete step three.
9:30And this command will synchronize our existing sensitivity labels from
9:34Microsoft purview into
9:36Microsoft intro ID.
9:37And we see that command right there.
9:43And doing so after period time, we'll make the group and sites option available
9:48when it
9:48comes to creating a sensitivity label.
9:50So in this video, one to the process of enabling sensitivity labels for our
9:55containers and also
9:56synchronizing those labels.
9:58Keep in mind that this may have been done ready by another member of your team
10:01in the
10:02past.
10:03But when I showed this process in the event that you're doing counter that the
10:06option
10:06is without or maybe you say not your lab environment.
10:08[BLANK_AUDIO]
Publishing Sensitivity Labels
0:00Next, you now go to the process of publishing our labels so they can be used by
0:04users.
0:05In the earlier video, we went to information protection, and then went to
0:12sensitivity labels,
0:14and we made one called internal use only.
0:17Now here, I can check that label, and I have the option here to publish label,
0:24and we see
0:24here that we're creating a policy. This policy is a label publishing policy.
0:30This policy
0:30defines how and to whom the sensitivity label are published.
0:35I'm going to hit cancel here, because I want to show you if we go to label
0:39publishing
0:40policy and go to publish label, we arrive at the same step here with the
0:45exception, we
0:46have to choose a sensitivity label. So here I can choose that internal use only
0:51, choose
0:52add, and now we're at the same place as we were before.
0:56All right, so here I'm going to do the next. I do have the option to assign
1:00this policy
1:01to an admin unit, if I wish, but it will keep for directory, two nets once
1:05again. So here
1:06I can apply this policy to all users and groups. For my demo, I'll go to edit.
1:11We're going
1:11to change this to specific users and groups. Let me go ahead and add a schedule
1:19here. I
1:20will also add Sierra. All right, we see we have to select it there, which is
1:28done and
1:29done again, which is nets. So we have several options here when it comes to
1:34this policy.
1:36So users must provide justifications to remove a label or lower specification.
1:41So in the
1:41event a user tries to remove a label altogether or replace it with a lower
1:45sensitivity or
1:46lower priority, the user will be prompted to give a reason. You also have
1:51required users
1:52to apply a label to their emails and documents. So here we're forcing that user
1:57once again
1:57to choose a label before they can save their document or send that email. Let's
2:04scroll
2:05down a bit here. We have required user to apply a label to their fabric and
2:09power BI
2:09content. And here we're just ensuring any sensitive data on our data analytics
2:15is protected
2:16just like our documents and emails and chats. The mail set provide users with a
2:20link to
2:21our custom help page. So here we can point to a page the user can go over. They
2:26can learn
2:27how we use labels in our organization. All right, so we choose nets here. We do
2:33have the
2:33ability to apply default label produce policy to different elements of the
2:37Microsoft environment.
2:39But for my demo, I'm going to stick with none. So for documents here, we choose
2:44none. The
2:44emails name is document. We have no inheritance, which is nets. This is for our
2:51meetings. So
2:51we don't have a default label for our meetings and calendar events. So we
2:55choose nets there.
2:56We also keep none for our sites and groups. Also choose nets here. And then we
3:02're going
3:02to name this posse. And we'll name it our lab demo internal use only. All right
3:13, so we
3:14have nets and then we'll submit our policy. As we anything else, we have to
3:22hurry up and
3:23wait. So it says here, it can take up to 24 hours to publish these labels to
3:29the users
3:30that were assigned as policy, which was Pedro and Sierra. So at this point, we
3:34'll go ahead
3:34and wait for his policy to take effect. And we'll jump into Pedro's and Sierra
3:38's desk
3:39tops to see what they can do with their labels.
Sensitivity Labels Demo
0:00All right, so in this video, we'll go ahead and go through a demo of our
0:03sensitivity labels in action.
0:04So in this scale, we did two things. One, create a sensitivity label, and then
0:12two, publish that
0:13label to users and groups. Before we jump into our demo, I want to point out
0:17two additional items.
0:18We'll go to solutions, back to information protection, and go to sensitivity
0:24labels.
0:27Here we go to our label that we created, and I'll choose edit here.
0:30So we choose nets here, nets again, one more time. I want to talk more about
0:38this section right here.
0:39This step here, we find what the label does. We'll write to these users have,
0:46or groups, when the
0:47label is applied to this content. So in this scenario, president's hero, have
0:52been applied,
0:52we call author permission. So this means any data that's labeled with this
0:57sensitivity label,
0:58these two users, Pedro and Sarah, we have co-authoring access. So we can think
1:04of this of who can do
1:05what when content is labeled with this sensitivity label. All right, so let's
1:10go cancel here.
1:11Let's go policies and to label publishing policies. So we choose the one that
1:18we created in the
1:19previous video, we'll go to edit policy. So here we have another section,
1:26here we go to edit here, we specify Sierra and Pedro. So this step here in our
1:35policy
1:36really defines who can see and apply the label in their Microsoft applications.
1:42So once again, Sierra and Pedro in my demo, I've debated to choose this label
1:49within their applications.
1:50So you can think of this as who has access to use this label within the apps.
1:55So I simply wanted to highlight the differences when it comes to assigning
2:00permissions within a
2:02sensitivity label versus assigning users to our label publishing policy. All
2:08right, so let's go to
2:10Sierra here, let's go toward the stop. When open up teams for like so, we'll go
2:16to calendar.
2:17Now here I'm going to create a new event like so.
2:23Let's go ahead and add a title here. So in our scenario, department reorgan
2:31ization.
2:33Now here I'm going to invite Thomas. Now also I'm going to invite Pedro.
2:40Now notice here I do have the option to apply a sensitivity label.
2:46So here we have internal use only and that's the one you and I created
2:52previously in the skill.
2:53And notice the description we see on left, going back to that sensitivity label
2:58,
2:59let me cancel here and go to sensitivity label, let's put that label of
3:04internal use only,
3:06I'll choose edit. Here we go down to description for users. This is what we see
3:14here. And that's
3:15what we also see for Sierra. We see our description right there. Now remember
3:23that this sensitivity
3:24label has a setting applied to it, which we'll see right here. So here we're
3:30preventing the
3:31copying and forwarding of mini content. Any participants in a meeting with this
3:36label will not be able
3:37to copy a four meeting chat messages, links, live captions or transcripts. So
3:43going back to Sierra.
3:44So here I'm going to change this to internal use only like so. So you can see
3:51our sensitivity
3:52label right there. So at this point I had sent. So now a little Thomas, we'll
3:59go to his teams,
4:00go to calendar,
4:03and then do the same for Pedro. All right, so we see our meeting there. So here
4:12I'm going to have Sierra
4:13start that meeting. So we should join. All right, so we have Pedro join also.
4:20Then we have Thomas join also. All right, so we see the all three folks are in
4:28that meeting.
4:28Let's say Sierra post a message.
4:31That message is being removing the HR department to Texas in September.
4:43So Thomas here, let me see that message.
4:45And say that's pretty juicy. Let me go ahead and copy this like so.
4:51And notice we have a message here due to policy. You can copy meeting chats.
4:57What happens to Pedro
4:58if he does the same thing with the right click copy and the same applies to him
5:07.
5:07But he's in being this meeting was created with that sensitivity label internal
5:12use only.
5:12And that was a setting that we set here when we created that sensitivity label.
5:18So imagine if you will, the different settings that we can apply to this label,
5:23which is later
5:23enforced with someone creates a meeting with this sensitive label. All right,
5:29going back to Sierra
5:30here, let's say she ends that meeting. All right, so that meeting is ended for
5:35everyone. So if I go
5:37back into her meeting. So we see information about the meeting invite, if we go
5:46to chat.
5:47We see a chat that we saw earlier. So if I do a right click here and copy,
5:54notice the same thing applies. So let's go Thomas, let's go back to our meeting
5:59.
6:02Notice here that Thomas cannot see the information because his meeting invite
6:08is protected by that
6:09sensitivity label. And Thomas is not assigned that internal use only label. In
6:15fact, if I try to go
6:16to chat here, the same thing should apply. If I go to copy, I do have the
6:21restriction there.
6:23Let's go back to Sierra. Let's say she wanted to create a new team. Should we
6:29go to chat?
6:32Then here, I can create a new team. So new team. So notice I can create a new
6:39team here. We'll call
6:41it reorg. So let's say wanted this to be public. And I tried to apply the
6:48sensitivity label
6:49of internal use only, nor is the public is grayed out. But only option here is
6:55private.
6:58And that's because going back to our sensitivity label, if I go nuts.
7:03Here, we say an option that the sensitivity label when used will always be set
7:12to private.
7:12So here are only team owners and members can access a group or a team. And only
7:17team owners
7:18can add additional members. So that's the reason that we're seeing this right
7:22here.
7:22All right, so we won't create that team there. So here we see the behavior that
7:28our user
7:28would expect in the event that a sensitivity label is applied to our team's
7:32meaning
7:32or during the creation of a team. But let me show you other scenarios where
7:36that sensitivity
7:37label will come into play. So let's say that Sierra creates a word document
7:42like so.
7:43So we're going to pay some content here. So imagine if you will, this was
7:50intended to be
7:51only seen by internal folks. So here the intention is not to have this document
7:56shared outside of
7:58the organization. All right, so I can do here is add a sensitivity label of
8:03internal use only.
8:04So we should see it updated right there. And I'm going to save this. So we do a
8:09save as.
8:10We also see descriptions here of this label. Let's go ahead and save this
8:16on my desktop for now. We'll call this project revamp like so. We'll hit save.
8:27So let's go teams here. Now I'm going to pick this sales department.
8:31Let me verify that the other users are indeed part of these teams.
8:36And we see everyone is a member here. So going back to our general chat. So let
8:45's say
8:46I posted that file. Do we just created? All right, we're going to add, attach a
8:52file,
8:54upload from this device. We'll go to desktop and there's our file right there.
9:02We're going to go ahead and hit post. Remember now that Pedro and Sierra are
9:07the only two users
9:08that have access to that sensitivity label. So if I go to Pedro.
9:13So general chat, I see the document there. Let me attempt to open it to see
9:22what happens.
9:22And notice Pedro can definitely read that file. Why? Because he also has access
9:31to that sensitivity
9:33label. Let's pick someone else. Let's pick me, for example. Let's go to teams.
9:40We'll go to channels.
9:41General chat. What happens if I were to open this file?
9:49Notice I get this message here. I don't have permission to open this document.
9:53Why? Because I don't have
9:54access to that sensitivity label. All right, so let's also try email. Let's do
10:00Pedro this time.
10:01We'll go to email. We'll go to new email.
10:07Let's go and copy Thomas along with Pedro. Let the body and subject be super
10:18secret stuff.
10:19We'll copy that and put that as subject. But this time we're going to change
10:24this to internal
10:26use only. So we hit send. All right, so let's go to Sierra and wait for that
10:32email.
10:33While you're not waiting for that, let's go to Thomas and do the same. Let's go
10:38to his email.
10:39All right, so we see that email right there.
10:46Right, try to open it. So we see here, Pedro sent a protected message. So if I
10:54try to read that message,
10:56like so. So we see the message that I, being Thomas, do not have sufficient
11:05permissions to
11:06open that mail. Why? Because I do not have the sensitivity label required to
11:11read that email.
11:12If I go to Pedro and where I click on the email there, Pedro can definitely see
11:18the contents
11:18on that email because he does have that sensitivity label. And there we go. We
11:22saw a few examples of
11:23these sensitivity labels being used in Microsoft Teams and also in office
11:27applications, including
11:29Word and Outlook.
11:30[BLANK_AUDIO]
Validation
0:00For example, once again, I'm making it to the end of the skill.
0:02As always, we go through a bad asinception,
0:04where we have received some questions, but we're testing your knowledge.
0:07And our first question says, "Please refer to the image above
0:12when creating a sensitive label, which of the following is not an option
0:17when defining a scope?"
0:18All right, so we look at the image here, and let me zoom in.
0:23So why don't you provide a screenshot here in the event that question was not
0:27clear.
0:29The question is asin, "A blog of possible answers,
0:32which one is not an option listed here?"
0:34All right, so let's go ahead and close our image here.
0:37We have our options.
0:38Emails that have been one of them, groups and sites is,
0:43"One drive account," that doesn't sound right.
0:46We have meetings that is there along with files and other data assets.
0:50For the answer here is, "One drive account," we hit submit.
0:54Going to question number two,
0:58we also have another image.
0:59We refer to the image above, what impact does assigning permissions to a label
1:04have?
1:05All right, so just for clarification, if we look at our screenshot here,
1:09it seems they were creating a sensitive label,
1:12and we have the option here to assign permissions.
1:16So going back to our question, what's the impact of these settings?
1:24The answer to this question is this one.
1:27This step defines what the label does,
1:31really what rights users and groups have when it's labels apply to content.
1:36So we choose our correct answer and submit.
1:38Going down to question three here, we have yet another image,
1:42and the question is, "What impact does assigning users or groups
1:46to a label publishing policy have?"
1:49I don't have the word "have" here, but you'll see it by the time you get to
1:53this question.
1:55All right, so just for clarity, we're talking about when we're publishing
2:00sensitive labels.
2:01So let's look at our answers here.
2:04The correct answer being that this step defines who can see and apply the label
2:11in the Microsoft
2:11applications by teams the office applications like Word and Outlook, for
2:16example.
2:16I will pick a correct answer and hit submit.
2:19Then going to our final question here,
2:22folks report not seeing the newly advertised sensitivity labels when scheduling
2:27a team's meeting,
2:28which is a problem to be a possible cause.
2:30So our first possible answer that folks have unclear their team cache
2:34may be, but probably not.
2:36These folks haven't restored their computers after the last Windows update.
2:40That's not the answer.
2:41Check to see if the label was published by trading or adding it to a label
2:46publishing policy.
2:48That sounds good to me.
2:51And our final answer here is that the sensitivity label needs to be
2:54manually installed for the Microsoft Store.
2:55So we'll pick our correct answer and hit submit.
2:58So with that, our validation section is complete.
3:01I hope you did well, and I will see you in the next skill.
