Microsoft Purview compliance portal: Data Loss Prevention - Optical character recognition (OCR) support for endpoint
OCR capability will be added to Endpoint DLP, enabling detection and prevention of sensitive data contained in images (JPG, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, BMP, and image-only PDFs) on Windows endpoints. This enhances DLP policy enforcement to cover image-based content that previously could not be scanned.
Microsoft's 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 on your Windows endpoint devices. This release supports key file types like JPG, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, BMP and PDF (image only PDF).
