Create Customized AI Assistants with Copilot
Within Microsoft 365, organizations can use Copilot Studio to customize Copilot or create their own AI assistants. This is where AI can truly become a strategic asset for an enterprise. For instance, an IT department could create a custom Copilot to proactively address its organization’s most common technical requests.
Microsoft Copilot Keeps Your Data Secure
When companies use Copilot through a qualified Microsoft 365 license, they receive access to commercial data protection, which ensures not only that user and organizational data is protected but also that prompts and responses are not saved.
Microsoft leverages OpenAI code running in Azure on a private instance of Azure OpenAI. Microsoft is the data controller, and OpenAI does not have access to the models or the data processed by them.
Integrate Copilot with Your Own Data
The Copilot for Microsoft 365 license includes another significant capability: direct integration between the Microsoft 365 tenant and the Copilot in Windows interface. Now, the generative AI assistant can work with information unique to your organization while adhering to its existing privacy, security and compliance commitments. When a user submits a prompt, Copilot will check access permissions, then use the company’s data to return the appropriate answer — for example, providing a specific document or answering questions about the organizational chart.
