Remediation Suggestions
- Require explicit user opt-in before connecting to calendar, email, document, conversation, or persistent-memory services.
- Disable automatic pre-meeting processing by default and require the user to enable it for selected calendars or meetings.
- Use minimum OAuth or API scopes, such as read-only calendar access, and request additional sources separately only when required.
- Restrict retrieval to user-selected accounts, folders, participants, date ranges, and meeting identifiers.
- Display the sources and records selected for retrieval before incorporating sensitive content into a brief.
- Require separate approval before persisting meeting notes, action items, attendee details, or retrieved communications.
- Establish configurable retention periods and provide clear view, export, correction, and deletion controls.
- Encrypt persisted meeting data and apply authorization checks to every memory query.
- Prevent retrieval across unrelated meetings, organizations, clients, or user profiles through tenant and context isolation.
- Avoid attendance and missed-commitment profiling unless the user separately enables that feature and has a legitimate basis to process the information.
- Record auditable logs showing which source was accessed, why it was accessed, and what information was retained.
- Replace the “No configuration required” statement with an explicit setup process describing requested permissions, privacy effects, retention behavior, and revocation procedures.
