Data Lifecycle Management: Separate Copilot retention policies from Teams chats

In a previous post I mentioned how Microsoft is adding the capability to use Purview Data Loss Prevention on Copilot to block certain information from surfacing for the user. Now, Microsoft is adding Copilot to it's retention policy controls, and starting mid-February, public preview tenants can start exploringthis new feature. Admins will be able to create separate retention policies for Microsoft Teams chats and Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions, and allows for a more tailored data management. The feature will of course require that the targeted users have Microsoft 365 Copilot license.  According to the message center, the public preview will be during February, and we can hope for a general release sometime in March. The feature will be available by default, but policies will have to be set up.

CUCM 7

I've just been to a tech-update from Cisco, where they talked about CUCM 7. Though the release itself wasn't very impressing, they have implemented a few new features that will be nice to have. Since this is a pre tech-update, I can't write to much about it, but here are a few key features I found interesting:
  • Simplified route pattern for satellite offices ("intelligent" routing based on device pools)
  • Better Sip implementation and integration
  • Line state possibilities for alerting status
  • And of course the mobility features are getting a lot better
The tech-update also provided us with information on where the presence functionality is going, which new phone models they have in production, other unified communication products and the announcement of EOL products. If you're interested, you should attend Cisco's official tech-update track near you.
