Power Apps: Form fill assistance using speech as input in model-driven apps
🚨 The Signal: Power Apps model-driven apps now support speech-to-text for form filling, enabled by default. This introduces a new input vector for data entry, with transient recordings not saved, but potential for sensitive data exposure via transcription.
The Impact
All users of model-driven Power Apps are affected, with a low security risk of accidental sensitive data exposure during transcription.
- End users: May inadvertently dictate sensitive information into forms.
- Security teams: Need to assess data handling policies for voice input.
- Compliance teams: Must review privacy impact assessments for new input methods.
The Action
- Review existing data handling policies for voice input and transcription services.
- Communicate to users about appropriate data to dictate into Power Apps forms.
- Assess if disabling this feature is necessary for specific high-sensitivity applications via Power Apps admin settings (if available).
