Copilot Security Assessment
This workshop is developed to improve customers’ security baseline required for the full adoption of the Copilot for Microsoft 365.
It can be offered as a pre-packaged service delivered directly to the end customer or as an enablement service for the resellers from the service design to the execution.

Data Access Control
– Limit Copilot access to authorized personnel only.
– Implement RBAC to restrict access based on job roles.
– Use MFA to prevent unauthorized access.
Data Encryption
– Encrypt data in transit using protocols like HTTPS/TLS.
– Encrypt sensitive data at rest to prevent unauthorized access.
Data Privacy Compliance
– Comply with regulations like GDPR and CCPA when using Copilot.
– Agree to GitHub’s terms of service and privacy policy.
Data Retention Policies
– Define and enforce data retention policies for Copilot data.
– Securely delete or archive unneeded data in compliance with regulations.
Incident Response Plan
– Develop and test a response plan for data security incidents.
– Define roles, escalation procedures, and communication protocols.
Workshop approach
Phase 1
- Assessment – baseline security posture concerning M365
- Gap analysis concerning access control, data privacy & encryption policies, secure configuration, code review practice, monitoring and logging, employee training and awareness
Phase 2
- Crafting a security enhancement proposal informed by the findings of Phase 1 assessment
- Security controls implementation including technical and organizatonal aspects
