Purview & Copilot Studio integration for improved data security

Copilot & Purview #1:

Microsoft Purview's integration with Copilot Studio is set to make data security straightforward for developers creating custom AI apps - even those low coders out there can activate security features with just a few clicks!

This new integration, which is currently in preview, helps in identifying data risks, managing data from AI apps, and ensuring sensitive information stays safe. Features include:

• discovering data risks in AI interactions.
• auditing custom AI prompts and responses.
• applying retention or deletion policies on prompts and responses.
• limiting access to sensitive data.
• ensuring app-generated responses inherit the sensitivity labels of the referenced files.

These updates mean developers can more easily secure their AI apps, with a low-code/no-code experience!

Security Copilot functionality to be embedded in Microsoft Purview

Copilot & Purview #2:

In terms of Microsoft Purview Compliance capabilities, Microsoft's Security Copilot will be embedded in Microsoft Purview by the end of the year, offering generative AI-powered insights to help teams uncover hidden data risks.

For me, the stand out features here are:

• Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) for deeper insights into data risks, with features that will guide users through a recommended path of investigation, prioritised against the top risks base-lined in your organisation.
• Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy understanding in natural language, with new DLP copilot investigation prompts.
