    Where to understand Data Loss Prevention for average person?


    I need to know more about Data Loss Prevention for where I work as clerk using Office 365 Apps.
    Cloud related technology seems riskier but is becoming the norm.
    Example is I am trying to understand why my IT says automation saving to Network Drive Folder has higher risk than saving to OneDrive or SharePoint which are Cloud tech.

    You could either work out what system is in use or ask IT for details then you could research the specific system.

    Being work computers, you have to go with whatever the company policy is in this manner. The IT dept can tell you more about the guidelines they provide to the company to chooses their policy.

    more details


    I can use Microsoft Power Automate Cloud Template to Save to OneCloud or SharePoint but not File System.
    Change to DLP Policy is Microsoft Community response to why I cannot add File System Connector and my IT said it is a complicated solution.
    Please correct me if wrong, I am assuming the Change in DLP Policy is due to more risk.

    it seems sticking to the norm is the solution today

    Depending on an IT group's capabilities, sometimes an outside cloud provider is the better choice vs. a local network share.

    Some typical reasons:
    - Data redundancy to multiple geographic sites
    - Better cost per TB, better on-demand scaling of capacity
    - Providing file journalling, or a point-in-time copy of data ("offline copy")
    - Providing audit trail for the client
    - OneDrive storage is bundled in many Office 365 plans, so it's natural for enterprises to use it
