As you can follow mail traffic on your tenant you can detect if people send email with heavy file attached.
By analyzing where and what kind of data are store you can better allocate resource.
Detect that some mailbox receive a lot of spam or maybe some people access to file they are not supposed to see then you can detect a fault in your security and solve it.
