  12. 4 Nov 2026 · 15:02:25 UTC SummaryWhen files are opened in Windows, the operating system, and applications (for example, Microsoft Office and browsers) can create, rename, and delete temporary files as part of normal behavior. The Endpoint client audits these activities, resulting in high-volume, low-signal events that appear as “noise” for Insider Risk Management (IRM) customers. While global exclusions exist (file type, keyword, file path, etc.), some temporary file naming patterns are not easily captured with the current exclusions, leaving customers without a practical way to reduce noise without over-excluding. This feature introduces built-in filtering for well-known temporary file name patterns so that Endpoint file operations are excluded from IRM activity explorer and scoring reducing noise allowing customers to focus on the most relevant alerts. Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates various signals to identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as IP theft, data leakage, and security violations. Insider Risk Management enables customers to create policies based on their own internal policies, governance, and organizational requirements. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy. → When files are opened in Windows, the operating system, and applications (for example, Microsoft Office and browsers) can create, rename, and delete temporary files as part of normal behavior.
