New policy settings available for Microsoft Feedback Portal

We are introducing a new policy for admins to be able to manage user access to the Feedback portal (announced in MC289676). The Feedback portal allows your users to submit community feedback and interact with (upvote, comment) feedback submitted by other users. It also allows for users to track and follow-up on feedback they submit to Microsoft.

The feedback we collect from your users is available for you to review in the Microsoft 365 admin center. Keeping the feedback experiences enabled will let you see what your users are saying about the products they are using.

Microsoft 365 compliance center: Communication Compliance – Expanded Optical Character Recognition to support handwritten and printed text (U.S. Government clouds)

Expanding optical character recognition beyond text extracted from images or PDFs to include handwritten and printed text, which will then be evaluated against the customers policy conditions (such as keywords matching for threatening language), further reducing an organizations policy violation risk. Communication Compliance helps organizations detect explicit code of conduct and regulatory compliance violations, such as harassing or threatening language, sharing of adult content, and inappropriate sharing of sensitive information. Built with privacy by design, usernames are pseudonymized by default, role-based access controls are built in, investigators are explicitly opted in by an admin, and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy.
