Microsoft Copilot Podcast – AI Architecture, Security & Governance Episodes

Microsoft Copilot introduces AI-driven assistance across Microsoft 365, Azure, and enterprise workloads, fundamentally changing how users interact with data and systems. Copilot Talk explores what happens when AI systems are integrated into production environments with real data, real permissions, and real consequences.

Episodes in this category focus on Copilot architecture, data access patterns, identity delegation, security boundaries, and governance challenges. We analyze how Copilot interacts with Microsoft 365 workloads, APIs, and enterprise data sources — and where architectural assumptions can break under real-world conditions.

Rather than showcasing AI features, Copilot Talk concentrates on risk, responsibility, and control. Topics include over-delegation to AI agents, unintended data exposure, compliance implications, and the challenges of auditing AI-driven decisions. We also discuss how Copilot fits into broader Microsoft identity and security models.

This category is aimed at IT leaders, architects, and security professionals evaluating or deploying Microsoft Copilot in enterprise environments. If you need to understand not just what Copilot can do, but how it affects architecture, governance, and accountability, Copilot Talk provides the depth required to make informed decisions.
