New Delhi, Oct 16: US-based cyber security firm Rubrik on Wednesday announced the launch of Rubrik Data Security Posture Management for Microsoft 365 Copilot to provide greater visibility and control of sensitive data, reduce the risk of exposure, and empower organisations to quickly and securely adopt Copilot, an AI-powered assistant that generates answers anchored in an organisation’s business content to deliver highly relevant and contextual responses.
“The announcement comes at a crucial time as many organisations are preparing to embrace AI tools and adopt Microsoft 365 Co-pilot in a big way.
The biggest hurdle that’s slowing down organisations is the lack of tools and platforms that can identify and control access to sensitive data,” said Abhilash Purushothaman, Vice President and General Manager, Rubrik (Asia).
“With the growing volume of Microsoft 365 customers in India, managing and safeguarding sensitive information has become increasingly complex.
Rubrik aims to mitigate these risks, strengthen resilience for organisations, and enable accelerated adoption of transformational AI tools like M365 Copilot without worrying about potential sensitive data exposure and associated regulatory fallouts that are slowing down AI adoption,” he added.
Organisations are facing significant pressure when it comes to improving the security of their rapidly growing data, said Mike Tornicasa, Chief Business Officer at Rubrik. Rubrik DSPM for Microsoft 365 Copilot helps safeguard those business-critical assets, allowing organisations to leverage the power of innovative tools like Copilot while maintaining a strong data security posture and ensuring cyber recovery-all within a comprehensive cyber resilience platform.
“Microsoft is committed to enabling secure and intelligent productivity tools for our customers,” said Tony Surma, CTO, Americas Partners at Microsoft.
“The introduction of Rubrik Data Security Posture Management for Microsoft 365 Copilot aligns with our mission by providing robust data visibility and control, enabling organisations to confidently leverage AI-driven capabilities while ensuring their sensitive data remains secure.”
Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI-powered assistant that generates answers anchored in an organisation’s business content to deliver highly relevant and contextual responses.
To ensure Copilot surfaces only data that users have permissions to view, it follows the same data access controls already in place in Microsoft 365. Misconfigurations in these controls could lead to the exposure of sensitive data to unauthorised users.
To help mitigate this risk, Rubrik DSPM for Microsoft 365 Copilot is designed to provide the data visibility and control needed to ensure sensitive data is correctly classified, labelled, and segmented-and has the right access permissions.
This enables organisations to leverage the power of Copilot while safeguarding sensitive data from the risk of exposure.
