Security News > 2023 > November > Generative AI security: Preventing Microsoft Copilot data exposure
Copilot can access all the sensitive data that a user can access, which is often far too much.
In this post I'm going to focus specifically on data security and how your team can ensure a safe Copilot rollout.
The efficacy of label-based data protection will surely degrade when we have AI generating orders of magnitude more data requiring accurate and auto-updating labels.
We have already seen real-world scenarios in which Copilot drafts a proposal for a client and includes sensitive data belonging to a completely different client.
It's critical to have a sense of your data security posture before your Copilot rollout.
Varonis protects thousands of Microsoft 365 customers with our Data Security Platform, which provides a real-time view of risk and the ability to automatically enforce least privilege.
