61352 Microsoft Defender for Office 365: Blocking URLs and Files with Tenant Allow/Block List One of the ways Office 365 ATP protects customers is by blocking malicious attachments and URLs from reaching end users. We understand that from time to time, customers may want to ensure delivery of certain messages containing malicious content for specific reasons, such as phishing simulations and training. In order to provide a way for our customers to easily reconcile this at time of click and during mail flow, we're developing a portal to help you self-remediate. This portal gives admins the opportunity to explicitly allow or block attachments and URLs in your Office 365 tenant. One of the ways EOP protects customers is by blocking malicious attachments, URLs, and certain senders from reaching end users. We also understand that from time to time, customers may have special needs to block something on their own that our filters might find to be not malicious. In order to provide a way for our customers to do this at time of click and during mail flow, we're developing a portal to help you self-serve and do it yourself. This portal will give admins the opportunity to explicitly allow or block attachments, URLs, senders and even certain recipients in your Office 365 tenant. The first phase of this rollout enables blocking of URLs and files. We feel that this is most important to our customers to protect them from getting compromised. The next phases of this will include the ability to allow files, URLs, and senders. 02/28/2021

70575 OneDrive: Sync Client support for DWG file Version History The SharePoint app bar brings a consistent navigation experience to every site on your intelligent intranet, featuring quick access to important sites across the organization with global navigation, personally relevant sites, and the news feed. We?re updating OneDrive Sync client to support Version History for DWG files. This change fixes a known issue where Version History is missing for DWG files backed by Sync client. 02/28/2021
70595 Exchange: Online - Label for external email messages received Exchange will make available a PowerShell script so that admins can label incoming email messages from external senders with an "External" string at the start of the email subject line. Exchange will make available a PowerShell cmdlet so that admins can enable the protections against spam & phishing threats from external senders. ?This will be achieved by presenting a new label on emails called ?External? in the message list in Outlook on the web and, in some Outlook clients, a "mail tip" at the top of the reading pane with sender's email address. 01/31/2021
75243 Forms: Shorten URL when sending Forms to collect responses With this update customers will be able to choose to shorten URLs in certain scenarios. In Microsoft Forms, you can now choose to use a shorter URL?in some scenarios directly, enabling the responders easier to type and access the link for specific situations. 01/31/2021
