Most Organizations Skip Permissions Reviews Before Deploying AI Tools

Syskit survey of 327 US/UK IT leaders finds 76% deployed M365 AI tools but only 43% reviewed permissions and oversharing risk first.

Syskit's State of Microsoft 365 Governance Report 2026, based on a survey of 327 IT and security decision-makers at US and UK organizations with 500+ employees, shows most enterprises deploy AI tools like Copilot without thorough permissions reviews. Only 22% have a formal policy defining what AI agents may access, and 9% let agents inherit the deployer's full permissions. 90% report experiencing or suspecting a security incident tied to M365 misconfigurations or over-permissioned access in the past two years.

Seattle Times and Newsday sue OpenAI and Microsoft for infringement

The Seattle Times and Newsday sued OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement, seeking destruction of datasets and models trained on their journalism.

The Seattle Times and Newsday allege OpenAI used their journalism as training data without permission and that its chatbots reproduce passages of their reporting, seeking destruction of copies of their works, training datasets, and AI models that incorporate them. Microsoft is named as co-defendant because Copilot is built on OpenAI technology. The suit follows similar actions by The New York Times, Ziff Davis, Merriam-Webster, Encyclopedia Britannica, and nearly 400 local newspapers.

Seattle Times and Newsday are the latest publications to sue OpenAI and Microsoft

The Seattle Times and Newsday sued OpenAI and Microsoft over alleged unlicensed use of their journalism for AI training, joining a wave of publisher lawsuits.

The Seattle Times and Newsday filed a copyright lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, arguing generative AI products like ChatGPT and Copilot are 'rapacious consumers' of human-authored journalism that return derivative imitations. The suit follows The New York Times' 2023 case against the companies and other publisher lawsuits. A Microsoft spokesperson said the company was surprised but always happy to explore solutions; the outlets have received Microsoft funding for journalism projects and fellowships.

Microsoft says virtually nobody was grabbing NYT articles through its chatbot

Microsoft files summary judgement briefs in NYT copyright lawsuit, arguing only 59,545 of 8.2M Copilot logs show substantial overlap with news content.

Microsoft filed new legal filings in the consolidated copyright lawsuit brought by The New York Times, authors, and publishers against Microsoft and OpenAI, arguing for summary judgement. Analysis of 8.2 million Copilot chat logs found only 59,545 contained at least 16 words in common with news content, with just 24 responses showing at least 30 matching words in the authors' case. Microsoft argues the numbers support fair use, claiming Copilot rarely reproduces substantive chunks; the Times says discovery shows Microsoft and OpenAI stole from it, and the Trump administration filed a statement of interest supporting OpenAI.
