Identify sensitive data, fix access risks, and implement controls before enabling Copilot
Copilot readiness
Prepare Microsoft Copilot with full visibility into sensitive data, access risks, and AI activity, before it exposes what shouldn’t be shared.
Microsoft Copilot amplifies existing data risks. Sensitive data, excessive permissions, and hidden access paths allow AI to surface information far beyond intent. Without visibility and control, organizations risk oversharing, compliance violations, and data leakage at scale.
Uncontrolled data sprawl
Sensitive data sprawl across Microsoft 365, file shares, and cloud apps leaves organizations unaware of what Copilot can access and expose.
Excessive and hidden access
Over-permissioned users, stale accounts, and shadow admins silently expand access, enabling Copilot to surface data far beyond intended audiences.
Invisible access paths
Hidden access paths and misconfigurations make it difficult to understand who truly has access to sensitive data before AI starts using it.
No visibility into AI-driven risk
Lack of visibility into data usage and user activity prevents teams from detecting risky Copilot interactions before sensitive data is exposed.
Why Netwrix for Copilot readiness?
Control Copilot before it controls your data
Gain full control over Copilot risk by discovering sensitive data, fixing excessive access, and stopping unsafe AI interactions. Monitor usage in real time to detect anomalies early, reduce exposure, and ensure Copilot only surfaces secure, compliant information.
Know what Copilot can access
Discover and map sensitive and regulated data across Microsoft 365 and beyond, so Copilot only surfaces approved, controlled information.
Reduce AI-driven data exposure
Identify and remediate excessive permissions, stale identities, and hidden access paths before Copilot expands the blast radius.
Stop risky Copilot interactions
Detect and block sensitive data in prompts and prevent misuse across Copilot and other GenAI tools.
Gain full visibility into AI activity
Monitor user behavior, data access, and AI interactions in real time to detect anomalies and respond before data is exposed.
End-to-end Copilot security and readiness
How to roll out Copilot securely?
Step #1: Discover
Discover
Continuously discover sensitive and regulated data across Microsoft 365, cloud, and on-prem systems to understand what Copilot could access before deployment.
Step #2: Classify
Classify
Apply high-fidelity classification to label sensitive data, ensuring Copilot interactions are governed by business context and compliance requirements.
Step #3: Audit
Audit
Analyze permissions, identities, and access paths to understand who and what can access sensitive data through Copilot.
Step #4: Secure
Secure
Remediate excessive access, enforce least privilege, and block sensitive data from being used in risky Copilot prompts or external AI tools.
Step #5: Monitor
Monitor
Continuously monitor user activity, Copilot interactions, and data access patterns to detect anomalies and prevent data exposure in real time.
Step #6: Govern
Govern
Establish policies, automate access reviews, and maintain ongoing compliance to ensure Copilot usage stays aligned with security and regulatory standards.
