This cmdlet is available only in Security & Compliance PowerShell. For more information, see Security & Compliance PowerShell.

Use the Remove-DlpSensitiveInformationTypeConfig cmdlet to remove data loss prevention (DLP) sensitive information type rule packages from the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Syntax

Remove-DlpSensitiveInformationTypeRulePackage
      [-Identity] <SensitiveInformationTypeRuleCollectionIdParameter>
      [-Confirm]
      [-WhatIf]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Sensitive information type rule packages are used by DLP to detect sensitive content. The default sensitive information type rule package is named Microsoft Rule Package.

To use this cmdlet in Security & Compliance PowerShell, you need to be assigned permissions. For more information, see Permissions in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

Examples

Example 1

$Rule = Get-DlpSensitiveInformationTypeRulePackage -Identity "Contoso Rule Pack"

$Rule | Remove-DlpSensitiveInformationTypeRulePackage

This example removes the third-party sensitive information type rule package named Contoso Rule Pack. The first command stores the identity of the rule package in a variable. The second command pipes the variable to the Remove-DlpSensitiveInformationTypeRulePackage cmdlet.

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
