Overview

16% of business-critical data is overshared across the average M365 tenant, with organizations averaging 802,000 files at risk. Microsoft's SharePoint Advanced Management provides discovery reports, but remediation remains largely manual and is capped at 1,000 site access reviews per month. For large tenants with thousands of sites, that's a years-long cleanup timeline, while Copilot exposes everything today.

Compass Data Access Governance Engine is a continuously running governance layer that monitors and remediates permission sprawl automatically. Scheduled Azure Functions scan for newly created sharing links, detect company-wide permissions, identify anonymous links without expiration dates, flag guest access to labeled sites, and detect permission changes that introduce broad access. When issues are found, Power Automate workflows either alert administrators or auto-remediate based on configurable policies.

The EchoLeak vulnerability (CVE-2025-32711, CVSS 9.3) enabled zero-click data exfiltration through Copilot. The U.S. House of Representatives and European Parliament both banned Copilot from staff devices. Automated governance prevents these scenarios.
