Microsoft Copilot is an exciting product designed to enhance business productivity, but introduces new security risks that enterprises must take into account. Today we are announcing a Copilot data risk module that delivers the industry’s first data security governance of Copilot data inputs and outputs to ensure that sensitive data – from financial information to IP to business data – remains protected within the organization. https://lnkd.in/gmmWFbgu

We’re so excited about our Copilot data protection announcement, we’ve got to share it again in case you missed it. If your company is considering a Copilot deployment or even if you’re already using it, we’ve got great news! Concentric AI is excited to introduce the industry’s first AI-based DSPM functionality that identifies data access and activity risk from Copilot requests. With Concentric AI, you can now — for the first time — leverage AI-driven DSPM to track, monitor and seamlessly enforce access governance around Copilot activity and abnormal user requests. Best part is, you can autonomously remediate those scenarios to prevent data loss. The integration is built right into our DSPM solution. Learn more about how Concentric AI is leading the way in identifying, classifying and protecting Copilot data. #Copilot #DSPM #DataSecurity #DataGovernance https://lnkd.in/gc6VkGjw

If your organization is ready to deal with the huge security implications of deploying Microsoft Copilot, we have some great news! ?? Concentric AI is excited to introduce the industry’s first AI-based DSPM functionality that identifies data access and activity risk from Copilot requests. With Concentric AI, you can now — for the first time — leverage AI-driven DSPM to track, monitor and seamlessly enforce access governance around Copilot activity and abnormal user requests. Best part is, you can autonomously remediate those scenarios to prevent data loss. Our new Copilot integration module is built into Concentric AI’s DSPM. It uniquely monitors user questions to Copilot and data access requests made by Copilot to service those requests. We then identify risky data access scenarios by Copilot that involve sensitive data such as PII, business confidential data, IP, and financial data. Concentric AI conducts seamless classification and enforces permissions-driven access governance of requested data. It also offers search capabilities reporting specific requests initiated by users to Copilot and the data that was accessed, and logs your organization’s top users leveraging Copilot and their requests for sensitive data access. AI-powered tools like Copilot in the workplace are undoubtedly here to stay, but the productivity gains must be balanced with addressing the security risks. Let Concentric AI help take care of that risk! https://lnkd.in/gc6VkGjw #Copilot #CopilotSecurity #DSPM #DataAccessGovernance #ConcentricAI

Mickey Mouse is kicking Slack out of his house. Earlier this year, over a terabyte of messaging data was leaked after Disney was hacked in a data breach. In response, Disney has made the decision to ditch Slack by the end of the year.? (Source: https://lnkd.in/gPHcdE28) The problem is, will moving away from Slack make a huge difference? Does the messaging platform a company uses have an impact on how well the data is protected? Because any messaging tool can be risky if you haven’t addressed data access governance or data security posture management. Managing access to data, doing due diligence on third-party tools, detecting abnormal user behavior… they’re all strategies that must be used to prevent incidents like this from happening to your unstructured data. Want to dive deeper into protecting unstructured data? We compare structured with unstructured data, discuss the challenges, and provide effective strategies. #DataAcccessGovernance #DSPM #DataSecurity #DataGovernance https://lnkd.in/gsszzN4e

If your company is concerned about data governance, you may want to put the breaks on your Microsoft Copilot deployment. A recent article on the UK tech site TheRegister has a compelling headline: “Copilot for Microsoft 365 might boost productivity if you survive the compliance minefield.” Remember that Copilot is only as good as the data it’s given and the way it is strategically deployed in the enterprise. Microsoft itself says that "users should always take caution and use their best judgment when using outputs from Copilot for Microsoft 365.” Before deploying Copilot, organizations must do everything possible to ensure that their sensitive data is not compromised by using the tool. Once deployed, that data security vigilance should also be applied during and after the rollout. Check out TheRegister article below.? https://lnkd.in/dvTtyqFx #Copilot #DataSecurity #DataGovernance #MicrosoftCopilot #Cybersecurity #AI

Cyberattacks on big business get all the headlines, but the education sector institutions are being targeted just as frequently. The statistics are grim. A Malwarebytes report called 2023 “the worst ransomware year on record" for the sector. Last year saw a 105 percent increase in known ransomware attacks against K–12 and higher education, rising from 129 in 2022 to 265.? (source: https://lnkd.in/gZmnG5Zu) For the education sector, keeping up with fast pace of cloud migration is difficult enough. Protecting all that sensitive data only exacerbates the challenge. With such massive potential financial and reputational losses on the line, deploying data security solutions to prevent data breaches is a top priority for the sector. To address the evolving and sophisticated threats, traditional cybersecurity hygiene practices simply aren’t enough — especially when higher institution must comply with FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) regulations. Learn more about how the education sector can protect its critical data, and how institutions can maintain FERPA compliance. #DataSecurity #DSPM #Cybersecurity #EdTech #Education https://lnkd.in/g2egVfq9
