The bug in Copilot bypassed data loss prevention (DLP) policies used by organizations to protect sensitive information. Microsoft has rolled out a fix, but has not yet disclosed how many users or organizations have been affected. One thing is clear: AI assistants like Copilot cannot and must not be trusted to have access to an organization’s mailbox or sensitive data. Thu, 19 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT
