This cmdlet is functional only in on-premises Exchange.
In Exchange Online, this cmdlet is replaced by the New-DlpSensitiveInformationType cmdlet in Security & Compliance PowerShell.
Use the New-DataClassification cmdlet to create data classification rules that use document fingerprints.
For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.
New-DataClassification [-Name] <String> -Description <String> -Fingerprints <MultiValuedProperty>
[-ClassificationRuleCollectionIdentity <ClassificationRuleCollectionIdParameter>]
[-Confirm]
[-DomainController <Fqdn>]
[-Locale <CultureInfo>]
[-WhatIf]
[<CommonParameters>]
Classification rule packages are used by data loss prevention (DLP) to detect sensitive content in messages.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this article lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you might not have access to some parameters if they aren't included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.
$Employee_Template = [System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes('C:\My Documents\Contoso Employee Template.docx')
$Employee_Fingerprint = New-Fingerprint -FileData $Employee_Template -Description "Contoso Employee Template"
$Customer_Template = [System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes('D:\Data\Contoso Customer Template.docx')
$Customer_Fingerprint = New-Fingerprint -FileData $Customer_Template -Description "Contoso Customer Template"
New-DataClassification -Name "Contoso Employee-Customer Confidential" -Fingerprints $Employee_Fingerprint,$Customer_Fingerprint -Description "Message contains Contoso employee or customer information."This example creates a new data classification rule named "Contoso Employee-Customer Confidential" that uses the document fingerprints of the files C:\My Documents\Contoso Employee Template.docx and D:\Data\Contoso Customer Template.docx.

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