Microsoft's description

Purview policies like Data loss prevention (DLP) auto labelling can scan for sensitive content in most of the textual files, but images are not supported for content scanning today on Mac endpoint devices. We are adding OCR support on Mac endpoints to detect sensitive content in images and apply policies to protect these images.
