Thanks for the question @Srdjan. We take privacy of our Microsoft 365 customers very seriously. Copilot for Microsoft 365 users will only have access to information in the tenant that they already have access to. More information about data, privacy, and security is shared in our Learn articles here: aka.ms/M365Copilotdocs including admin documentation. NET is it is important for any organization adopting Copilot to have an intentional data governance plan using Microsoft Purview to protect sensitive information. More on that in the Purview for Copilot Learn pages as well.- Thanks Dan, it makes a lot of sense. I've been working with Purview for quite some time and I'm glad that that knowledge can been used further. I mean, back in 2017 I didn't know that there will be something called Copilot, but I delivered several sessions because I like the whole security concept behind then O365 data.
A [..] privacy issue [..] if copilot [..] crawl(s) through the e-mails and Teams chat history of all the users [..] and then 3rd person prompts copilot to ask if someone mentioned him/her in a negative context.
Suggest to read https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-copilot/microsoft-365-copilot-privacy and conclude that if a user can already access the content, Copilot (or more specific Semantic Index of which Copilot is an interface) can provide information to the user. If you as a user do not already have access to the data, you will also not get that in any of the responses. As such, your privacy issue doesn't exist as you already know the negative context around you as a person or not - so doesn't provide new information to you. There're also options to exclude locations from Semantic Index to avoid indexing, e.g. stuff that you consider part of your Online Archive of 5+ years ago might not be desired to index and present as information to your end-users.- Thanks for answering, Robbert!
Hi,
My understanding is that it is possible to grant access to only subset of a SharePoint to Copilot for Microsoft 365. Am I right ?
I mean : In the case that one SharePoint has not been cleaned yet, it is possible to activate Copilot for Microsoft 365, but not for this particular SharePoint.
Thanks,- Hey Andre, not exactly in that manner. You're able to take SharePoint sites off Search, which would also prevent Copilot from reasoning over it. Taking a site off search does mean that it won't be discoverable and only accessible via direct link.
