Epiq Microsoft Purview Separated Employee Defensibility

In the modern workplace, organizations face a complex and convoluted process when separating employees, leading to potential data loss due to automated workflows deleting data or recycling physical devices containing critical information subject to regulatory hold or litigation hold. Separating employees may carry valuable knowledge and sensitive data with them to competitors or unauthorized parties, potentially harming the company's intellectual property and competitive advantage.
