Microsoft 365 Copilot will enable natural language commands for email triage—pinning, flagging, archiving, marking read/unread, and completing tasks—in Outlook. Available mid-December 2025 for licensed users, this feature requires no admin changes and aims to simplify inbox management.
Microsoft will enable admins to onboard external partners to Viva Glint via a simplified process starting December 2025. Partners can be added as Support Users through Entra ID guest accounts to manage employee engagement surveys. Admin action is required to enable partner access, with guidance provided for setup and communication.
SharePoint Catalog Management, launching mid-November 2025, offers centralized, intelligent site clustering for admins to streamline governance, apply policies, and optimize management. Available in SharePoint Advanced Management, it enables scalable lifecycle, access, and storage controls without affecting end users. No immediate action required.
Microsoft 365 will allow tenant admins to add up to 10 custom properties from external systems to user profile cards, enhancing collaboration. This feature, off by default, rolls out worldwide from mid to late January 2026 and is configurable via Microsoft 365 admin center using Microsoft Graph People connectors.
Baseline Security Mode centralizes Microsoft’s recommended security standards for Office, SharePoint, Exchange, Teams, and Entra. Rolling out from November 2025 to March 2026, it provides admins with a dashboard to assess and improve security posture using impact reports and risk-based recommendations, with no immediate user impact.
We’re excited to announce UX improvements to the DLP Alerts Portal in Purview to help you triage incidents faster and more efficiently. What’s New: 1. Unified View: Events related to each alert are now available directly on the alerts page — no need to switch to new tab or drill down. 2. Faster Access: Access event details (e.g. Impacted assets) with just 1 click on the main alerts page itself, compared to 4 clicks earlier, reducing triage time significantly. 3. Enhanced Context: We’ve added 4 new columns – Location, DLP Rule name, DLP Policy name, Rule Action to display key alert and event attributes upfront — giving you more visibility at a glance. 4. Performance Boost: Cache improvements to ensure faster load times and a smoother experience. These updates are designed to streamline your workflow, reduce response times, and give you the context you need — all in a single, efficient view.
User-Based Aggregation consolidates DLP alerts by user identity i.e. a DLP rule violations, in a specified aggregation time window, of the same rule and single user will be aggregated into a single alert enabling quicker triage and remediation. Instead of reviewing alerts containing rule match events of multiple users, DLP admin can now analyze grouped DLP rule match events per user, gaining insights into repeated policy violations and anomalous behavior.
Users can now search for the name of font they want to use when composing an email on Outlook for Android.
