When this will happen:

The new naming will go into effect on April 19th.

How this will affect your organization:

Microsoft Purview will deliver comprehensive solutions to help govern, protect, and manage your data estate.

Starting today, April 19, 2022, you will see Microsoft Purview naming within the compliance center experience (now called Microsoft Purview compliance portal) and related solutions. Here’s an overview of naming updates in effect now:
