Explanation

The information protection solution in the Microsoft 365 Compliance center (Microsoft Purview Information Protection) is designed to discover, classify, label, and protect sensitive data-such as financial records, health information, or intellectual property-from being accessed or shared by unauthorized users. It uses sensitivity labels, encryption, and access restrictions to enforce data protection. Protecting computers from zero-day exploits is handled by Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Protecting users from phishing is handled by Microsoft Defender for Office 365. Protecting files from malware/viruses is an antivirus/anti-malware function, not an information protection function.
