Copilot & Data Exposure Risk Assessment

Identify and reduce oversharing risk before search and Copilot expose what shouldn’t be seen

The challenge

Uncontrolled sharing

Sensitive information may be shared too broadly across files, sites, teams, and links.

Unclear access

It can be difficult to know who has access, who owns it, and what should remain.

Copilot exposure risk

Search and Copilot may surface information that should not be seen by every user.

What we do

We assess where sensitive data lives, how it’s shared, and which controls are missing, then prioritise remediation that balances risk and productivity.

Step 1

Assess sensitive data

Identify where sensitive data lives across the environment.

Step 2

Review sharing

Understand how data is shared and where access is unclear.

Step 3

Identify missing controls

Highlight the controls needed to reduce exposure risk.

Step 4

Prioritise remediation

Create a practical plan that balances risk and productivity.
