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.

Coming to Ignite Tour Stockholm next week


I am pleased to announce I am going to Stockholm to join the Ignite Tour. I have been asked by Paul Cherbin to join him for his session "Skype for business to Microsoft Teams: guidance for a successful upgrade"
I have been invited to talk about some of the options there are for bringing Scandinavian PSTN numbers to Teams. More specifically on "Hosted Direct Routing" provided by Telenor, and how we tie this service in with our mobile services as well.

I will probably be in the Expo area for most of the event, and will be at the Teams booth holding demos and answering your questions. So if you feel like a chat or to have a cup of coffee, don't be shy. I'll love to answer some of those Teams-PSTN questions you might have.
