Microsoft Copilot and Security Threats

𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹. 𝗭𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘀. 𝗧𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗸.

Yes, it’s real.
A new attack called EchoLeak just changed how we think about AI security.

No clicks. No downloads.
Just an email in your inbox.
And Copilot does the rest:
It scans it.
Follows hidden instructions.
And leaks your data silently.

This is the first zero-click attack on Microsoft 365 Copilot.
𝗜𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗜’𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹—𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁—𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
🧠 Copilot can read your chats, files, Teams, OneDrive
🕵️ A hacker email tricks it into sending that data out
🔐 Traditional security? Useless here
🧨 Even DLP can break Copilot's features

If you work in banking, healthcare, or defense — this is your wake-up call.
💡 Every AI agent in your business is now a potential leak.

✅ 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗥𝘂𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗜𝗦𝗢𝘀:
Trust, but verify.
And NEVER let AI read your inbox without real safeguards.
