McCloy Data Insights.
Helping future-focused leaders navigate what’s next:
Default library labels in SharePoint now reach the files already there
Default sensitivity labels on SharePoint libraries used to skip older files. A Purview policy now labels them, ten sites at a time. Pick the order with care.
Purview priority cleanup: who approves a deletion that overrides a hold
Purview priority cleanup deletes content a retention policy or eDiscovery hold would keep. Name the approvers and get records sign-off before the first run.
Copilot prompts are about to leave your Teams retention policy
Teams retention policies that also covered Copilot prompts are becoming Teams-only. Decide if Copilot interactions are records, then build a policy for them.
Oversharing in SharePoint: who answers the site access review
SharePoint can now list every item shared with your whole company. Fixing it falls to site owners through access reviews, so brief them before the first email.
Site sprawl needs an owner before it needs a policy
Group expiration, ownerless group policy and inactive site policies all assume someone answers the email. Name that owner before you switch any of them on.
Purview labels as records discipline on the tenant you already license
Purview works when the policy comes first: a short file plan, a named records owner, and the labeling G5 already includes. Copilot readiness follows from it.
Rebuild, don't lift: moving an old intranet to a SharePoint Online hub
Moving an old intranet to SharePoint Online? Rebuild, don't copy: inventory content, leave the rest behind, name site owners, and cut over without dead links.
