Turned-Off Remote Power Shell Protocol

We have made some recent changes to improve the security of your tenant. We announced in December 2022 that we would be retiring Remote Power Shell (RPS) protocol for Exchange Online. In April 2023 we disabled RPS for all new tenants and in May 2023, we disabled RPS for passive tenants. We have now started disabling RPS for active tenants from June 2023.

Today we have turned off RPS protocol in your tenant.

Microsoft Edge Workspaces now generally available for enterprises

Staying in sync on projects with many different links, files, and resources is difficult. With Microsoft Edge Workspaces, teams can view the same project websites and latest working files in one place as a shared set of browser tabs to help them stay in sync.

Microsoft Edge Workspaces is a new enterprise feature to help users and teams stay better organized and productive in their workdays. Users and teams can group browser tabs for a project together in a dedicated browser window called a “workspace.” With a workspace, users and teams can easily “pause and resume” working on their project, meaning they can close the workspace with all their tabs and confidently open it later to access their tabs again. They can also invite additional teammates to join their workspace for a shared experience where teams can browse together.

Basic Authentication retirement in Microsoft 365 Apps

Microsoft 365 Apps are disabling server sign-in prompts using Basic authentication in Office Apps. We are making this change because basic authentication is a legacy authentication method that sends a username and password with each request. As a result, an attacker can access these credentials and use them to access resources. Continued use of Basic Authentication is a big security concern, so we have decided to deprecate it from all tenants.

Manage File Access in Microsoft Search in Bing, Office.com, SharePoint, and Feed

Our new “Who can see this?” option in the file action menu will allow users to view and/or manage who has access to a file result. Users can only manage file permissions if they are the owner of the file or have permissions to update the file and its permissions. The aim of this feature is to help users understand why they are seeing a file in their search results and adjust its permissions as needed more easily on the search page. This will appear on file results in Microsoft Search in Bing, Office.com, SharePoint, and Feed.

Note: This will not appear on Microsoft Search in Bing for DoD or Gallatin tenants as Microsoft Search in Bing is not fully supported there yet.
