MC188695 New Feature: Automatic Phishing Detection in Microsoft Forms for enterprise in-org forms In order to make Forms a more secure service, in July we enabled automatic phishing detection on all public forms (https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/roadmap?rtc=1searchterms=52927 Roadmap ID 52927, MC185734).
We are now adding this feature to enterprise in-org forms (when a forms setting is ?Only people in my organization can respond?) for better protection.
In mid-September, we will enable automatic phishing detection in Microsoft Forms for in-org forms. Because default is on, automatic phishing detection will be applied to all forms created for organization-only audiences. Admins can turn this feature off in the admin center Microsoft Forms settings.
The automatic detection feature runs at Forms design time. If suspicious phishing content (e.g., what?s your password?) is detected, the form will be automatically blocked from sharing or collecting responses. This is not a permanent block; the form can be unblocked if the designer removes the suspicious phishing question.
As an Office 365 admin, you will receive daily Message Center notifications on these potential phishing detection results.
As a global admin, you have access to the forms as well as the response data. You can reverse the automatic block if you believe it was in error. You must be a global administrator to perform these actions.
Microsoft Forms is on by default and available to everyone in your organization. This anti-phishing feature is also on by default. You can disable this feature, as well as general Forms availability, in the admin center.

Administrators can now see a checkbox in admin center for the anti-phishing feature. You have until September 23 to change the default from on to off if you do not want this feature enabled for your customers.

MC186323 Updated - New Feature: Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) Safe Links in Teams ATP Safe Links for Teams checks that the links people click on in Teams are safe. At the point that a user clicks on a link we will check to make sure the link is safe. If the link is flagged as malicious, we will take the user to a block page. All links throughout Teams including in chats, channels, and tabs are protected.
If you are a tenant that has an Microsoft/Office 365 E5 or ATP P1/P2 license you can set up a policy to enable ATP Safe Links.
We'll be gradually rolling this out to licensed customers in early August, and the roll out will be completed worldwide by the end of September/b; (previously August).
