Security and corporate governance concerns weigh heavily on large enterprises as they try to work Microsoft Copilots into their organizations amid a complex web of existing technology products and access rights.

So says Jack Berkowitz, chief data officer for Securiti, who spoke to The Register about how companies have adapted to Copilots — largely by launching them from the corporate jet.

Microsoft is positioning its Copilot tool as a way to make users more creative and productive by capturing all the human work latent in the data used to train its AI models and resell it.

But the technology reached the market long before safety and security. It was only two years ago that generative AI services began to emerge, and there is still some work to be done.
