Description

Optical character recognition (OCR) support will detect sensitive content in images and subsequently apply data loss prevention (DLP) policies to prevent exfiltration of that sensitive data in SharePoint Online and OneDrive. This release supports key file types like JPG, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, and PDF (image-only PDF).
