Varonis accelerates secure adoption of Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365

Varonis Systems (VRNS) announced a strategic collaboration with Microsoft (MSFT) to help companies safely harness the power of AI. The integration helps joint customers continually assess and improve their Microsoft 365 data security posture before, during, and after they deploy Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365. The security model for Copilot for Microsoft 365 relies on a user’s existing Microsoft 365 permissions to determine which files, emails, chats, notes, etc. can be used to generate AI responses. These information protection capabilities give you the tools to know your data, protect your data, and prevent data loss. Complementing Microsoft 365’s built-in data protection features, Varonis provides customers with other options in how to manage and optimize an organization’s data security model, preventing data exposure by ensuring only the right people can access sensitive data at all times.
