Microsoft Copilot in Production: Security Realities, Adoption Failures, and What Actually Works
About 90% of Microsoft 365 environments now have access to Copilot, and actual daily usage hovers around 30%. With this continued uptick in access and usage, security teams face data oversharing risks that now affect 15% of business-critical files. In this symposium, IANS Faculty Shannon Lietz walks through documented failure patterns, outlines ways to implement risk-based adoption strategies, and provides recommendations to help teams develop security controls that balance productivity gains against data exposure risks. We also share the best process to scale security and unleash the power of citizen development safely. And most importantly, we cover why Human-in-the-Loop design is needed now and in the long term.
- Understand current Copilot and AI capabilities at Microsoft
- Discuss local vs. central governance and the differences of humans working with AI on a daily basis
- Identify key use cases and patterns that enable you to scale
- Gain recommendations for specific controls you can apply to use cases such as the CoE Toolkit, Agent 365, and Purview
