Microsoft 365 compliance center update: eDiscovery Premium Ability to Export Teams as Individual Messages

Originally posted by Microsoft Jul 19, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

We are releasing the feature to provide the opportunity to choose the ability to export Microsoft Teams messages as individual messages in eDiscovery (Premium).

Today with large cases in eDiscovery (Premium), organizations can export Microsoft Teams conversations for up to 12 hours of the searched message. However, for many organizations, there is a need to export the searched messages as individual messages. This will enable you to export the messages of the Teams and Yammer data source as individual messages which match the searched criteria. This will enable the easy parity of the eDiscovery Standard and Premium functionality.

Sender Rewriting Scheme (SRS) Expanding to SMTP/Mailbox Forwarding

Originally posted by Microsoft Jul 19, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

We’re making changes to SMTP forwarding from mailboxes in Exchange Online. This change will result in forwarded messages being rewritten with Sender Rewriting Scheme (SRS).

We’ll further consolidate our rewriting feature for messages that are automatically forwarded outside of Exchange Online. Today, not all forwarded messages are rewritten using SRS. Messages forwarded with SMTP or mailbox forwarding have their P1 Mail From address replaced with the forwarding mailbox address. This behavior will change to use SRS rewriting instead. The change will be rolled out slowly, and it might take time to reach your organization.

Originally posted by Microsoft Jul 19, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Viva Pulse is a new employee feedback experience that is available for use with your Viva Suite subscription. Viva Pulse empowers managers and project team leaders to request and receive feedback from their teams at any time. Managers and project leads can choose from research-based templates to quickly create a survey and send it to select individuals or groups. They can also track feedback to understand team sentiment over time and show teams they’re being heard by working together to take clear steps to address needs.

With the upcoming release of Viva Pulse (MC613509 June ’23), we want to provide some additional information on steps to enable notifications.

Viva Goals: Date Picker in Check-in Modal to Show UTC Timezone

Originally posted by Microsoft Jul 19, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Previously in Viva goals, when making a check-in, the user could update the date of check-in from the check-in modal, which was based on the user’s local time zone. Users in different time zones saw the date of check-in and its representation on the progress graph differently, computation of progress and status also became a challenge. 

We are unifying the date picker to have the UTC date picker, which means that any Viva goals user making a check-in from any time zone will always see the same date and its representation on the progress graph will be consistent.

Microsoft Edge Workspaces now generally available for enterprises

Originally posted by Microsoft Jul 18, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

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

Originally posted by Microsoft Jul 18, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

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.
