To ensure regulatory compliance in SharePoint, start by understanding the rules your organization must follow like data privacy or industry laws. Create clear document libraries and use permissions so only the right people can view or edit files. Turn on version history to track changes, and use retention policies to keep or delete documents as required. Enable audit logs to monitor who accessed or modified files. Classify sensitive data with labels and use alerts for unusual activity. Finally, train your team to follow proper document handling and regularly review your settings to stay compliant.
