🤖 Microsoft 365 Copilot: Powerful, but not without risks
Do you use Microsoft 365 Copilot and are you sometimes shocked by what surfaces?
Copilot is super powerful, but… AI also amplifies the risks within your organization.
What used to be deeply hidden in SharePoint or Teams is now visible to the wrong colleague with one query to Copilot. Not because Copilot is leaking, but because more often than not, we share more than we realize ourselves.
💥 Recognizable challenges:
-
Copilot shows documents not meant for everyone (#Oversharing)
-
No clear overview of who has access to which files
-
Policies around safe sharing are lacking (yet)
