SharePoint Risk Is Stalling
Microsoft Copilot:
Clean Up Before Launch Day
Thursday 22nd October 2026
4pm - 5:30pm
67% of organisations have delayed or cancelled a Copilot deployment due to fears that generative AI will surface confidential SharePoint content, according to the 2026 CoreView State of Microsoft 365 Security Report based on responses from 250+ IT leaders.
What’s on the menu?
A tasting experience with a security twist.
This webinar will show how organisations can strengthen SharePoint governance before turning on Microsoft Copilot. We’ll cover the risks that most often delay deployments, how to see which sites, users, files and items Copilot can actually reach, and what IT teams should clean up first to reduce unnecessary exposure.

Led by Simon Hughes, a seasoned leader with over 10 years of experience in software solutions, this session is built for practitioners who need a clear view of what Copilot can access before launch day.
