What’s New in Netwrix 1Secure DSPM May 2025
Discovery and Classification of Sensitive Data in SharePoint Online, Teams, and OneDrive*
Users can now classify and identify sensitive data across SharePoint Online, Teams, and OneDrive. Identify when your sensitive data is overexposed, report on activity around it, or get alerted when someone tries to brute force their access to sensitive records.
Four new activity reports and three new corresponding alerts provide deeper visibility and protection:
- Sensitive Data Modifications and Deletions (Report + Alert)
- External Activity with Sensitive Data (Report + Alert)
- Failed Sensitive Data Access Attempts (Report + Alert)
- Activity Related to Sensitive Data (Report)
*‘DSPM3’ license is required for using this capability.
Protect sensitive data with sensitivity labels*
Prevent data exfiltration and further enhance your data risk remediation policies by labelling sensitive data in Microsoft 365 with sensitivity labels. This enhances your ability to continuously lock down sensitive data as it gets created and moves across your environment, without relying on manual classification. Enhance your visibility by identifying which data labelled as sensitive is overprovisioned and if there’s sensitive data that wasn’t labelled.
*‘DSPM3’ license is required for using this capability.
AI-based risk Remediation
Building on existing risk assessment capabilities, Netwrix 1Secure DSPM now introduces AI-driven remediation. Our AI assistant delivers tailored, actionable guidance to help you reduce specific risks in your IT environment faster and more effectively.
Visibility into sharing in SharePoint Online, Teams, and OneDrive
Sharing links in SharePoint Online help collaboration, but can introduce risk. Identify all resources shared via links and spot risky oversharing, such as anonymous or external access.
Single Sign-On with Auth0
Netwrix 1Secure DSPM now supports single sign-on, enabling customers to integrate with their existing identity providers. This simplifies user authentication, centralizes access control, and supports compliance by aligning with enterprise access management practices.
New Risks and Reports for Investigating Permissions in SharePoint Online
New risks and a detailed report for SharePoint Online make it easier to spot and address dangerous permissions configurations.
New Risks:
- Sites with Broken Inheritance : Tracks the proportion of sites where permissions are not inherited, potentially hiding access issues.
- High-Risk Permissions : Identifies content shared with high-risk accounts or groups.
- Permissions of Stale Users : Highlights accounts with active permissions that haven’t accessed SharePoint Online in the last 90 days
New Report:
- Permissions Overview by Resource : Provides a resource-level summary of user permissions, flagging broken inheritance, stale users, and high-risk access. Drill-down options enable fast investigation.
MAJOR ENHANCEMENTS
- User Type filter has been added to the Direct User Permission report
- Numerous additional enhancements have been made to improve administration, performance, and security.
