Reviewer's verdict

A solid, up-to-date reference for setting up data policies in Power Platform, but don't expect it to teach you governance strategy from first principles.

Who it's for

Power Platform admins needing a quick tour of data policy features.

Who should skip it

Anyone looking for a deep dive into data governance theory or complex, multi-cloud scenarios.

Pros

  • Up-to-date content, including Copilot Studio policies.
  • Clear, step-by-step instructions for creating and applying policies.
  • The exercise on layered strategy is a good mental model.

Cons

  • No real sandbox; the 'exercise' is a multiple-choice quiz.
  • Stays entirely within the Power Platform ecosystem, light on integration context.
  • More of a feature manual than a strategic guide.

That final quiz question, matching a scenario to a pre-defined layered strategy, really captures the feel of this module. It’s a guided tour of the UI, not a strategy workshop. It's effective at showing where the buttons are for creating DLP policies, blocking connectors, and even applying rules to Copilot Studio. The content is current, which I appreciate, especially the Copilot Studio part, as this is where things get messy fast. But it never leaves the happy path. There's no discussion of environment-level overrides causing chaos, the performance implications of certain rules, or how to audit policies at scale. For an admin who's been tasked with 'turning on some data governance,' this is a solid 90-minute reference. It tells you 'how,' but not enough 'why'.
