New Agent 365 controls for Microsoft admins
Govern every AI agent running across your organization with Agent 365. Track agents from Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Salesforce in one registry, sync in agents you're already running on AWS Bedrock, Google Cloud, Databricks Genie, and Anthropic Claude, and lock down shadow AI with default blocks and Execution Container isolation.
Agent 365 inspects your environment for every agent Microsoft and partners have registered, then layers control on top. Reusable security policy templates apply Conditional Access, Access Packages, and Custom Security Attributes the moment you approve an agent, Tools governance blocks risky MCP servers and connectors org wide, and the Adoption Dashboard breaks down usage by group, job function, and license type for every manager in your org.
Jeremy Chapman, Microsoft 365 Director, shares how to bring every agent in your organization under one governed registry, and how to shut down shadow AI before it ever compromises your environment.
👥 Who it's for:
IT admins, security engineers, and identity teams governing AI agents across Microsoft 365, Entra, Purview, Defender, and Intune; solution architects designing agent access, tools, and security policy at scale; developers and DevOps teams building and registering agents and custom MCP servers in Copilot Studio, Agent Builder, and Foundry; and team leads, finance, and IT leaders tracking agent adoption, usage, and spend across the organization.
