Purview Deployment

Follow these steps to set up and connect the Microsoft Purview Cloud Sensor. For permissions and tenant requirements, see the Cloud Sensor prerequisites section.

Connect Cyberhaven to Microsoft Purview

To connect your Microsoft 365 tenant, log in to your Cyberhaven Console and follow these steps:

  1. Create a support ticket in the Cyberhaven Support Portal to request that the Purview connector be enabled on the backend.
  2. In the Console, click the cloud icon in the left navigation (bottom-left).
  3. Click the + (plus) symbol next to Microsoft Purview to connect an instance.
  4. In the pop-up window, authenticate with your Microsoft 365 credentials using an account with Global Administrator rights.
  5. When prompted, grant permissions to the Cyberhaven-Purview-connector application for your tenant.
  6. After successful authorization, the connected tenant appears on the right side of the page.

The sensor automatically synchronizes sensitivity labels from Microsoft Purview every two hours.

Connect Multiple Purview Instances

You can configure and manage multiple Microsoft Purview instances concurrently within the Console to gain visibility across multiple environments.

  1. On the Cloud Sensors page, click the + (plus) symbol next to Microsoft Purview to connect an additional instance.
  2. In the authentication window, sign in with credentials for the additional Microsoft 365 tenant using an account with Global Administrator privileges.
  3. Grant permissions to the Cyberhaven-Purview-connector application for the additional tenant.

Repeat this process for each additional instance you need to connect. Each instance appears separately in your Cyberhaven Console.

Rename an Instance

You can rename a connected Microsoft Purview instance within the Cyberhaven Console:

  • Click the instance, then click the pencil (edit) icon next to the instance name and enter the new name.
