Microsoft 365 Copilot is rolling out across organizations worldwide, promising unprecedented productivity gains. Yet there’s a hidden danger many companies aren’t prepared for. Years of casual SharePoint sharing have created exposure risks that AI is about to amplify in ways you may never have imagined.

In this episode, I unpack the critical difference between SharePoint’s “Share” and “Copy Link” buttons—a simple misunderstanding that’s creating massive security risks as AI enters the workplace. You’ll hear how oversharing has led to data breaches, competitive intelligence leaks, and compliance violations, and what you can do to avoid them.

You’ll learn why most users unknowingly expose sensitive data with every “Copy Link” click, the three ways Copilot amplifies oversharing risks—including “ghost files” and permission inheritance traps—real stories of organizations that discovered hidden exposure through AI-generated reports, a simple three-question test to guide every sharing decision, and a clear step-by-step action plan to prepare for Copilot deployment.

The key takeaway is simple: organizations that clean up their sharing practices now will unlock AI’s full potential safely. Those that don’t will spend their time dealing with data breaches instead of enjoying productivity gains.

Don’t let convenience turn into a security nightmare. This episode could save your organization from an AI-amplified data disaster.

Resources mentioned include the free Copilot Security Quick-Start Guide (for newsletter subscribers), the SharePoint sharing audit checklist, and advanced governance strategies for AI readiness.

This episode is perfect for IT professionals, business leaders, compliance officers, and anyone using Microsoft 365 for collaboration.

In this short episode, I talk about the new features in Excel Copilot — and why they matter so much to me. I have dyscalculia, a learning difference that makes numbers incredibly difficult. For most of my career, Excel has been the tool that left me behind. I can’t hold more than four digits of a phone number in my head, I still count on my fingers, and sevens and nines in the times tables? They’ve never stuck. Spreadsheets have always taken me longer.

But now, with Microsoft Copilot in Excel, I finally have a way to work in language, not formulas. And that’s a breakthrough not just for me, but for anyone who has ever stared at an Excel formula bar in frustration.

This eBook is designed to show you exactly how Copilot can transform SharePoint metadata cleanup — turning messy exports into clear insights, without the headache of formulas or pivot tables.
