Didn't realise that IP labels could be applied to specific sites using DLP - been targeting IP labels at specific users for a while. Thanks for the info Andy!

Hi Mister Andy, tks a lot for video. I just would like to suggest , you could add instructions to verify and generate report where those label are applied. Your content is always so amazing, tks for your job!

Nicely explained. Thank you!!

SuperStar 🎅🎄🎁 Andy, We all can only wish if this was a longer video to show us from the end-user experience. And to mention "legacy" MIP local software that is now retired. Old school CFO like to see their banner across the Outlook everytime when creating the email, and now they have to click on "Sensitivity" drop down .... too much work for those Finance guys😁

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

No worries. You saw it from the user perspective Word when I applied a label 😊

[@patrick__007]

Yes, that is the manual labeling. Isn't this a risk the users are too lazy and will not apply labels? Auto label policy does this automatic for you, right?

[@murattasova7598]

Thanks again for your very informative video Andy. Little question. Is it possible to force users to choose a sensitivity label. Thanks again.

[@alexthannah]

Yes when creating a label and targeting it at users you can force them to apply an info protection label before they save the file (for supported file types)

[@alexthannah]

As always with IT, it's security VS usability... great from a compliance standpoint if you force your users to label everything but you will get a lot of noise from users if they're not trained properly on why/how they're forced to label ALL files. Probably best to integrate this with DLP and just enforce the important Sensitive Information Types that are key to your organisation.

[@murattasova7598]

@@alexthannah you absolutely right. Probably the amount of people who like me (so far they exist :) will increase dramatically. Therefor it can only be done after a good campaign and convincing the management. Thanks and have great weekend.

[@simple-security]

I don't understand your comment at 11:50 "50 labels and 50 policies" if you just create the default label for your policy. Thanks very much for your video! great job.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

By default every time you create a label it will create a policy. You don’t want that right?

Hello Andi. Thank you for great video. You have right, i learned somethink new! :) I'm not sure if i heard the point, that the group must bee a e-mail activated securety group. Sorry, if i overheard this point. If you want to create a extra group for the labels and want to use a dynamic group, than you can create a m365 group. The special on a m365-Group is the e-mail notification - the feature on this step by the labling is a bit hmmm. The notification can be desablet by the command: Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity GROUPNAME -UnifiedGroupWelcomeMessageEnabled:$false But remember the microsoft cloud-speed. Wait until you change to a dynamic group. P.S.: I bomb the like button :) [sorry, i'm not a nativ englisch speaker]

[@holaconn1754]

Thank you Andy for the amazing video. 🍵 I have a question: when we create a label, we assign permissions to the label including which users and groups will have the permission to use the content that has the label applied. and we also have permission assignment in the label policy. So when we publish the label to the policy, which permission assignment has the higher priority? For example, a user A is in the scope of the label permission assignment, but he is not in the scope of the label policy's permission assignment, will user A be able to use the contents that applied this label? 👀🤔

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

The most restrictive permission takes precedence

[@MilanRoy-r4e]

@@AndyMaloneMVP sorry not clear... my bad... if the label is created for ALL USERS and the label policies mentioned say 3 SPECIFIC USERS which one it will go for? please clarify

Hey Andy, That was a wonderful information thank you . If you could include the license requirement to use this feature that would be much helpful. As we have multi licensed user and just to know who get this.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

No worries. Everyone gets information protection. Azure AD P2 get automated labels

[@pwerautomatetestvideo2270]

Thanks Andy, great video. Something we are currently looking at although the licensing is confusing. To my knowledeg, using DLP in for Teams is E5 as well as auto labelling. Auto labelling is classed as automation (questionable) so requires the high licensing/addons.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Unfortunately a P2 licence is required

[@whoismob]

@@AndyMaloneMVP does that require every user to have the p2 license for auto labeling?

[@devilmaycry10001]

Thank you very much for this and other video tutorials. How do files with sensitivity labels applied to them behave when membership to the label is based on dynamic group? I have create a label and distributed it to a dynamic group. I have later tagged a word document with this label. At a later stage I also amended the dynamic group to include more users, however the new employees in the group never get access to the previous old word document. How does this work? I have waited a couple of days, still the behaviour is that new employees within the group still do not have access to old documents.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

They are dynamic and should work. That said sometimes it can take up to 72 hours for labels to fully filter through.

[@peacejon2019]

Hi Mr. Andy. Great Job you are doing. Do I need to download AIP labelling client on Windows to have this labels showing up on Desktop clients?

[@CurtisM-vu7zb]

How can we revoke access to a specific user? Example: A user is part of a sensitive project and the label was created using specific defined users in both the access and policy. If that user no longer is on the project but still with the company, how can the access be removed? In my testing, after removing the user from the label access and policy to use the label, they can still open existing documents as they authenticated when they did have access.

[@AndyMaloneMVP]

Simply exclude the user from the policy

[@CurtisM-vu7zb]

@@AndyMaloneMVP The user (in my testing) still has access to the document. Example: User is not part of the policy and cannot open the document with label applied. User is added to label as owner and they can then open the document. Removed the user from being an owner but they can still open the document that was emailed. (Cache mode didnt make a change) You would think being removed as an owner would be real time and no be allowed to open the doc. We have waited 48 hours to ensure the policy was updated and the removed user could still access. Might have to open a ticket with MS on this one but wanted to see.

@@CurtisM-vu7zb I think that would be a good course of action. Good luck👍😊
