Data Security Considerations for M365 Copilot and Agents

Microsoft 365 Copilot is already changing how people work, but without the right security and governance foundations, it can just as easily amplify risk as productivity.

In this session, we’ll unpack how Microsoft secures Copilot end-to-end, and more importantly, what you need to configure, govern, and monitor to ensure Copilot and Copilot Agents are used safely, compliantly, and at scale.

Starting with the Copilot Control System, we’ll connect the dots across Microsoft Purview, Entra, and the emerging Agent 365 control plane to show how data security, identity, and permissions directly influence Copilot outcomes.
This session cuts through the hype to focus on practical controls, real-world misconfigurations, and decision points that every organisation deploying Copilot must understand.

Attendees will learn:
1. How Copilot actually accesses and reasons over data
2. Which Microsoft Purview controls matter most for Copilot and Agents
3. How to prepare for Copilot Agents and the new control plane

Whether you’re planning your first Copilot rollout or expanding into agents and automation, you’ll leave with a clear framework for governing Copilot without slowing innovation.
