presentations, or automatically documenting meetings \u2014 all of this is suddenly possible within seconds.<\/p><p>The productivity gains are real. And they are significant.<\/p><p>However, this new level of efficiency raises an uncomfortable question that many companies are currently facing:<\/p><p><strong>What happens to our sensitive data when we use Copilot?<\/strong><\/p><p>This is not a marginal issue. It touches the core of modern IT strategies. Copilot only works effectively when it has access to data. And that is exactly where the problem lies. The risk of data leakage or access by US hyperscalers under the CLOUD Act remains.<\/p><p>This article explains how Copilot works technically, where the real risks lie, and how companies can use AI without losing control over their data.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2>Why Copilot Doesn\u2019t Work Without Data<\/h2><p><br \/>To understand why Copilot is critical from a data protection perspective, it is important to first understand how the system works.<\/p><p>Copilot is not an isolated tool. It is deeply integrated into Microsoft 365 and accesses multiple data sources, including:<\/p><ul><li><div class=\"listIcon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"uuid-5c1f5060-c79f-455b-951c-fdfba722c0a4\" data-name=\"Ebene 1\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\"><defs fill=\"#00b4b4\"><style>      .uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1 {        stroke-width: 0px;      }    <\/style><\/defs><path class=\"uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1\" d=\"m17.15,8.14h-7.29s0-7.29,0-7.29c0-.22-.09-.44-.26-.6-.16-.16-.38-.25-.6-.25h0c-.23,0-.45.09-.61.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61v7.29H.86c-.23,0-.44.09-.6.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61,0,.23.09.44.25.6.16.16.38.25.61.25h7.29s0,7.29,0,7.29c0,.47.38.85.86.85.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.6v-7.29s7.29,0,7.29,0c.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.61c0-.47-.38-.85-.85-.85Z\" fill=\"#00b4b4\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>Emails in Outlook<\/li><li><div class=\"listIcon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"uuid-5c1f5060-c79f-455b-951c-fdfba722c0a4\" data-name=\"Ebene 1\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\"><defs fill=\"#00b4b4\"><style>      .uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1 {        stroke-width: 0px;      }    <\/style><\/defs><path class=\"uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1\" d=\"m17.15,8.14h-7.29s0-7.29,0-7.29c0-.22-.09-.44-.26-.6-.16-.16-.38-.25-.6-.25h0c-.23,0-.45.09-.61.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61v7.29H.86c-.23,0-.44.09-.6.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61,0,.23.09.44.25.6.16.16.38.25.61.25h7.29s0,7.29,0,7.29c0,.47.38.85.86.85.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.6v-7.29s7.29,0,7.29,0c.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.61c0-.47-.38-.85-.85-.85Z\" fill=\"#00b4b4\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>Documents in SharePoint and OneDrive<\/li><li><div class=\"listIcon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"uuid-5c1f5060-c79f-455b-951c-fdfba722c0a4\" data-name=\"Ebene 1\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\"><defs fill=\"#00b4b4\"><style>      .uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1 {        stroke-width: 0px;      }    <\/style><\/defs><path class=\"uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1\" d=\"m17.15,8.14h-7.29s0-7.29,0-7.29c0-.22-.09-.44-.26-.6-.16-.16-.38-.25-.6-.25h0c-.23,0-.45.09-.61.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61v7.29H.86c-.23,0-.44.09-.6.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61,0,.23.09.44.25.6.16.16.38.25.61.25h7.29s0,7.29,0,7.29c0,.47.38.85.86.85.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.6v-7.29s7.29,0,7.29,0c.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.61c0-.47-.38-.85-.85-.85Z\" fill=\"#00b4b4\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>Chats and files in Microsoft Teams<\/li><li><div class=\"listIcon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"uuid-5c1f5060-c79f-455b-951c-fdfba722c0a4\" data-name=\"Ebene 1\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\"><defs fill=\"#00b4b4\"><style>      .uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1 {        stroke-width: 0px;      }    <\/style><\/defs><path class=\"uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1\" d=\"m17.15,8.14h-7.29s0-7.29,0-7.29c0-.22-.09-.44-.26-.6-.16-.16-.38-.25-.6-.25h0c-.23,0-.45.09-.61.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61v7.29H.86c-.23,0-.44.09-.6.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61,0,.23.09.44.25.6.16.16.38.25.61.25h7.29s0,7.29,0,7.29c0,.47.38.85.86.85.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.6v-7.29s7.29,0,7.29,0c.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.61c0-.47-.38-.85-.85-.85Z\" fill=\"#00b4b4\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>Calendar data<\/li><li><div class=\"listIcon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"uuid-5c1f5060-c79f-455b-951c-fdfba722c0a4\" data-name=\"Ebene 1\" viewBox=\"0 0 18 18\"><defs fill=\"#00b4b4\"><style>      .uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1 {        stroke-width: 0px;      }    <\/style><\/defs><path class=\"uuid-07fe4fd6-62f4-4301-bf52-28d26aeefbf1\" d=\"m17.15,8.14h-7.29s0-7.29,0-7.29c0-.22-.09-.44-.26-.6-.16-.16-.38-.25-.6-.25h0c-.23,0-.45.09-.61.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61v7.29H.86c-.23,0-.44.09-.6.25-.16.16-.25.38-.25.61,0,.23.09.44.25.6.16.16.38.25.61.25h7.29s0,7.29,0,7.29c0,.47.38.85.86.85.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.6v-7.29s7.29,0,7.29,0c.23,0,.44-.09.61-.25s.25-.38.25-.61c0-.47-.38-.85-.85-.85Z\" fill=\"#00b4b4\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>Organizational knowledge<\/li><\/ul><p>This data is used to generate context-based responses.
