Governance Review

AI Governance & Security Review

An independent view of the risks, gaps and governance priorities across Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio and Azure AI.

Overview

AI is arriving across the Microsoft estate at once: Microsoft 365 Copilot in the workplace, agents in Copilot Studio and AI workloads on Azure. The AI Governance & Security Review gives security, risk and technology leaders a single, independent view of how well those are governed and protected.

We review Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, Azure AI, data protection, Microsoft Purview and the supporting security controls, then consolidate what we find into an executive report of risks, gaps and a governance roadmap.

Who it's for
Enterprises scaling AI across Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio and Azure AI, and the security, risk and technology leaders accountable for it.
Duration
2–3 weeks
Depending on how many platforms are in scope.

Customer challenges

Challenges we hear from customers

AI adoption is moving faster than controls

Copilot, agents and Azure AI workloads appear in different teams, with different owners, before common guardrails are in place.

Sensitive data in reach of AI

Data protection and labeling were designed for people opening files, not for AI that searches and summarizes across everything a user can reach.

No single view of AI risk

Security, compliance, IT and the business each see part of the picture, and leaders have no consolidated view to act on.

Questions you cannot yet answer

Boards, auditors and customers are asking how AI is governed. Answering with evidence needs a documented baseline.
