Copilot readiness and AI governance

Adopt AI without exposing your data.

Microsoft 365 Copilot and similar tools can only see what each user is allowed to see. The catch: in most businesses, people can access far more than they should. AI turns forgotten sharing links and open folders into answers anyone can ask for.

We get your environment ready first, so AI makes your team faster without surfacing payroll files, client records or board documents to the wrong people.

How it works

Secure AI & Copilot Adoption, done properly.

Permissions and oversharing review

Find and fix overshared SharePoint sites, Teams and OneDrive links before Copilot can surface them.

Sensitivity labels

Classify confidential data with Microsoft Purview labels so it's protected wherever it goes.

AI acceptable-use policy

Clear rules on approved tools, what data can be used and what can't.

Licensing and pilot rollout

Start with the right users, measure the benefit, then expand.

Shadow AI visibility

See which AI tools staff already use and steer them to approved options.

Staff training

Practical sessions on getting good results from AI, and on the risks to avoid.

The result: AI your team can use with confidence, on data that’s properly protected.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else on your mind? Call 416.235.0931 or send us a note.

Does Copilot ignore our permissions?

No. Copilot respects existing Microsoft 365 permissions. That's exactly why permissions need reviewing first: anything a user can technically open, Copilot can summarise for them.

Do we need Microsoft Purview?

Sensitivity labels are part of Microsoft Purview and are included in some Microsoft 365 plans. We'll check what your licences include and recommend only what you need.

How long does readiness take?

It depends on how much data you have and how it's been shared. A small business can often be ready in a few weeks; we'll scope it after a review.

Can you help with AI tools other than Copilot?

Yes. The same principles apply to ChatGPT, Gemini and others: an approved tool, a clear policy, protected data and trained staff.
