We’ve released updates to the following update channel for Microsoft 365 Apps:
We are announcing the ability to govern Copilot agent development in your environments and enforce governance policies for Copilot agents. This feature will reach public preview on September 3, 2025.
This feature is designed to provide Audit logs for each OCR transaction; this feature is only available in Exchange and teams workload for public preview.
The new Unified Permissions Management feature gives admins a consistent view of all required applications and delegated permissions, along with their associated risk levels, enabling clearer understanding of consents. From the permissions tab, admins can now provide consent directly, and once granted by the Global Admin, the AI Admin Role can deploy agents.
An enhancement to the ‘Manage what attendees see’ feature allows organizers and presenters to preview changes to what is going to be displayed on or off the screen before sending the changes live to attendees. This capability is only available for Town hall.
This feature allows MAC endpoints to optimize Microsoft Teams in VDI environments with the new SlimCore-based media engine, providing an expanded feature set and multiple improvements in quality, reliability and performance.
We are expanding the auto-remediation capabilities in Automated Investigations and Response (AIR) to fully automate the remediation of malicious similarity clusters. Earlier this year, we introduced auto-remediation for malicious URL and file clusters. Building on that foundation, this enhancement enables AIR to automatically approve all pending remediation actions it generates—eliminating the need for manual intervention and streamlining the response process for SOC teams. This advancement significantly reduces response time and operational overhead, allowing security teams to focus on higher-priority threats.
Microsoft Teams mobile now allows users to customize live captions by adjusting font color, background color, and caption height for better readability. These settings sync across devices, persist across sessions, and respect mobile accessibility preferences. The feature rolls out from September to November 2025 and requires no admin action.
Microsoft Teams will enhance privacy by showing only the last five minutes of captions when transcription is off, while full captions display when transcription is on. Stability improvements fix caption repositioning issues. Changes apply to desktop and Mac, roll out automatically from September 2025, with no admin action needed.
Microsoft Whiteboard storage is migrating from Azure to OneDrive, starting February 2024 and completing by August 2025, with full deprecation of Azure storage by February 2026. Users must complete migration by then to retain access. Admins can monitor migration via PowerShell cmdlets.
I've been working with Microsoft Technologies over the last ten years, mainly focused on creating collaboration and productivity solutions that drive the adoption of Microsoft Modern Workplace.
