Frequently asked questions


Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI assistant embedded across Office apps like Word, Excel, and Outlook to support in-app productivity. Copilot Chat (also called Microsoft 365 Chat or Business Chat) provides a unified conversational interface that answers questions using emails, documents, meetings, and the web. Both are enterprise-grade for Australian organisations, keeping data within your Microsoft 365 tenant with full privacy and compliance controls.

Yes. Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat is available at no additional cost for users with a qualifying Microsoft 365 license linked to Entra ID (formerly Azure AD). This enables organisations with Business, E3/E5, or similar plans to experiment with AI chat capabilities using existing subscriptions.

Both Copilot and Copilot Chat use Microsoft Graph to securely index and retrieve only the data users are authorised to access. Data remains within your Microsoft 365 environment, is not used to retrain AI models, and is protected by Microsoft’s encryption and compliance controls. Prompts and responses are treated as tenant data under existing security agreements.

Before deploying AI, organisations should classify and label data, review access permissions, and update privacy policies to reflect AI usage. Strong governance foundations, such as data retention, DLP, and compliance controls via Microsoft Purview ensure AI operates securely and responsibly from day one.

Microsoft 365 data is stored in Microsoft’s secure cloud data centres, typically within Australia or your selected residency region. Copilot operates entirely within this trusted environment, enforcing existing security, privacy, and access controls. AI agents cannot move data outside your tenant, preserving data sovereignty.

Microsoft’s Responsible AI principles, covering fairness, safety, privacy, transparency, and accountability are embedded into services like Copilot. These are enforced through built-in guardrails, compliance alignment, and oversight by Microsoft’s Responsible AI governance framework. Regular audits ensure Copilot meets strict ethical, privacy, and security standards.

Virtuelle Group takes a security-first, outcomes-driven approach to AI adoption. Rather than treating AI as a standalone technology rollout, we align AI enablement with your existing Microsoft security, compliance, and governance controls—ensuring risk is managed from day one. Our services focus on practical readiness, prioritising fast, measurable wins while building a scalable foundation for long-term, secure AI innovation.

Getting started is straightforward and low-risk. We begin with a focused discovery session to understand your current Microsoft 365 environment, security posture, and AI objectives. From there, we conduct a structured readiness assessment that identifies risks, quick wins, and priority actions—culminating in a clear, risk-aware roadmap to help you move confidently into secure AI adoption.
