Microsoft Edge for Business will introduce a Copilot-inspired new tab page combining search, chat, and work content in one box. Rollout starts mid-November 2025 (preview) and general availability in April 2026. Admins can enable it via Edge Management; users must opt in. No default changes or policy updates required.
Microsoft Teams will preserve interactive @mentions, shared contacts, and supported tags during copy and paste if valid in the destination, falling back to plain text if not. This update, rolling out April-May 2026, improves message consistency without requiring admin action.
Starting mid-March to early April 2026, Microsoft 365 profile cards will display an Awards and Certifications section showing title, issuer, and details for recent entries. This read-only feature appears only if these properties are populated in user profiles; no action is needed if unused.
This feature allows you to edit new and existing pages with an AI chat pane. Now, with just prompts, you can add webparts, grounding documents, and refine the visuals and text on your page.
Intelligent meeting recap will now include video-based recaps. Video recap creates narrated video highlights from recorded meetings, featuring key takeaways and short clips that showcase important moments.
Interpreter now delivers more accurate real-time interpretation, with improved recognition of people’s names and common industry terms. It also supports your organization’s Custom Dictionary from the Microsoft 365 admin center, so tenant-specific terms can be translated more consistently across meetings. Traditional Chinese is also now supported.
Speed up analysis of exfiltrated content by launching Data Security Investigations (DSI) from Unified Audit Log activity. In DSI, build your audit log query by specifying criteria such as time range, activities, users, and keywords. DSI then automatically pulls the associated files into the investigation (for example, UserA downloaded a file on 3/1/2026).
File Quarantine action in Microsoft Purview DLP for SharePoint and OneDrive, enables stronger, immediate protection for sensitive data. When a DLP policy is triggered, the File Quarantine action automatically moves the file to a restricted, admin‑controlled & defined quarantine location—instantly removing access for all users while preserving the file for review and investigation. This capability helps organizations contain data‑exposure risks, prevents further sharing or misuse, and delivers a powerful new layer of enforcement.
Speed up analysis of exfiltrated content by launching Data Security Investigations (DSI) from endpoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP) alerts. In DSI, define your endpoint DLP query (for example, time range, users, and endpoints). DSI then automatically gathers the related files that triggered the alerts for review (for example, UserA downloaded a file on 3/1/2026).
Spoken language detection is now fully automatic. Teams will automatically detect each speaker’s spoken language and update it in real time as the conversation evolves. Manual spoken language selection will no longer be available. This applies to both live captions and transcripts when Interpreter is enabled or when multilingual speech recognition is turned on in meeting options, helping deliver more accurate language recognition and a more consistent multilingual meeting experience.
