Data classification for M365

Prevent oversharing of sensitive data in OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams and data exposure through Copilot.

Overview

Managing Microsoft 365 data is more complex and risky than ever

Microsoft 365’s collaboration features—combined with AI tools such as Copilot—introduce data security and compliance risks. Sensitive information is often exposed through overshared links and weak access controls. Regulated data such as personally identifiable information (PII), payment card industry (PCI) data and protected health information (PHI) can spread unchecked across emails, documents and Teams chats.

Copilot amplifies these risks by surfacing data from across the tenant, sometimes reusing confidential content that users didn’t intend to expose. Without data classification, access hygiene and AI-aware data loss prevention (DLP) controls, organizations risk breaches, compliance violations and insider-driven data loss.
