Enterprise data protection (EDP) (often referred to as commercial data protection) is the capability that ensures Microsoft 365 Copilot handles organizational data under enterprise security and privacy guarantees. With EDP, Copilot processes prompts and responses within the customer’s Microsoft 365 boundary, respecting tenant isolation and identity-based access controls. This means Copilot only retrieves and uses data that the signed-in user is permitted to access, and the data remains governed by Microsoft 365 compliance features (such as retention, eDiscovery, audit, and Purview controls). Critically, EDP ensures that your organization’s prompts and the retrieved business content are not used to train the underlying AI foundation models. This is essential for protecting confidential business information and meeting regulatory and contractual requirements. The other options (Common Data Model, sensitivity labels, and Zero Trust) support data structure, classification, and security posture, but they do not specifically represent the Copilot guarantee that tenant data stays protected and is not used for model training.
