(Updated) Microsoft 365 Copilot: Q&A in Read Aloud enables real-time voice interactions

🚨 The Signal: Microsoft 365 Copilot's Read Aloud gains interactive Q&A, allowing real-time voice queries on document content. This enhances user interaction with sensitive data via AI, potentially increasing exposure risks.

The Impact

Users with Copilot licenses are affected, increasing the risk of sensitive information being processed and potentially exposed through AI interactions.

• End users: New voice interaction with sensitive data via Copilot.
• Security team: Increased risk of data exposure through AI processing.
• Compliance team: New data interaction methods require policy review.
• Admins: No direct admin action, but need awareness of data flow.

The Action

1. Review and update data governance policies for AI interaction with sensitive documents.
2. Educate users on appropriate data handling when using Copilot's interactive Read Aloud.
3. Monitor Copilot usage logs for unusual data access patterns or sensitive information processing.
4. Assess existing Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies for Copilot interactions.
