Outlook: Schedule from email with Copilot

🚨 The Signal: Copilot can now schedule meetings directly from email threads, automatically generating titles, agendas, and attendee lists. This streamlines meeting creation but introduces new vectors for information exposure if not governed.

The Impact

All users are affected, with a moderate security risk due to potential oversharing of sensitive email content in meeting invites.

• End users: Risk of inadvertently sharing sensitive email content in meeting invites.
• Security teams: Need to monitor and potentially restrict Copilot's access to sensitive data.
• Compliance officers: Increased risk of non-compliance with data handling policies.
• Administrators: Must review Copilot governance policies for data leakage prevention.

The Action

1. Review and enforce Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies for meeting content.
2. Configure Copilot for Microsoft 365 access controls and data interaction settings via the Microsoft 365 admin center.
3. Educate users on responsible use of Copilot for scheduling, emphasizing data sensitivity.
4. Monitor Copilot usage logs for unusual activity or potential data oversharing.
5. Implement sensitivity labels for emails and meetings to guide Copilot's content generation.
