• Replace existing Symantec DLP capabilities with Microsoft-native security configurations while enhancing policy enforcement.
• Collaborate with business stakeholders to define protected categories (PII, PHI, financials, Board documents, etc.) and design Purview policies accordingly.
• Design and roll out governance procedures for data retention, legal holds, purging, and archiving of sensitive content.
• Develop monitoring, alerting, and reporting dashboards for data access violations and policy enforcement gaps.
• Conduct operational knowledge transfer sessions and document all configurations, policies, workflows, and exception handling processes
Required qualifications to be successful in this role
• 12+ years of cybersecurity or information governance experience, with 5+ years specializing in data protection.
