Episode notes

Use Microsoft Purview and Microsoft 365 Copilot together to build a secure, enterprise-ready foundation for generative AI. Apply existing data protection and compliance controls, gain visibility into AI usage, and reduce risk from oversharing or insider threats.

Classify, restrict, and monitor sensitive data used in Copilot interactions. Investigate risky behavior, enforce dynamic policies, and block inappropriate use—all from within your Microsoft 365 environment.

Erica Toelle, Microsoft Purview Senior Product Manager, shares how to implement these controls and proactively manage data risks in Copilot deployments.
