Microsoft is expanding Edge for Business policy management to allow configuring policies for macOS, iOS, and Android in the Edge management service alongside Windows. Public preview starts mid-November 2025; general availability begins late January 2026. No user impact unless new policies are deployed.
Microsoft Purview Content Explorer will add summary metrics showing unscanned files and classification history trends, helping admins monitor data scanning and classification. Rolling out from January to March 2026, these features require no action and do not change existing policies or data processing.
Microsoft Teams will reduce automatic meeting updates in channel conversations starting January 2026, making threads cleaner with reply counts showing real user responses. Meeting details remain accessible in threads. The update is automatic, requires no admin action, and affects all Teams users in channel meetings.
We are announcing the ability to configure content moderation levels for AI prompts in Microsoft Copilot Studio and Power Platform. This feature setting will reach general availability on January 31, 2026.
We’ve released updates to the following update channels for Microsoft 365 Apps:
The Data Security Posture Agent, launching in public preview December 2025, uses large language models to discover sensitive data and assess risks beyond keyword analysis. Available in Microsoft Purview, it offers GenAI summaries, actionable recommendations, and requires admin setup for data security management.
Starting early February 2026, Microsoft Purview Activity Explorer will let admins preview flagged email attachments in Exchange Online directly within the portal, without downloading emails. This feature is enabled by default, requires no action, and maintains existing DLP and Information Protection policies.
Starting February 12, 2026, the tenant setting “Capacities can be designated as Fabric Copilot capacities” will be enabled by default for all tenants. Existing capacity configurations remain unchanged. Tenants can opt out before rollout by toggling the setting on then off in the Fabric admin portal.
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.
