| MC343797 | (Updated) Microsoft Purview compliance portal: Announcing data purge capabilities for Microsoft Teams content | Data spillage occurs when a confidential document is released into an untrusted environment. An eDiscovery case provides an effective way to manage data spillage investigations, so you can quickly assess the size and locations of the spillage, examine user activities around it, and then permanently purge the spilled data from the system. With this update, you will be able to include Teams content in the scope of the data purge. Note: Data purge can't delete items in a review set in Advanced eDiscovery because the review set contains copies of items in the live service that are stored in an Azure Storage location. To delete items in a review set, you have to delete the Advanced eDiscovery case that contains the review set. The purge signal will be available via the Advanced eDiscovery Graph APIs. Additional documentation will be available at the end of the month. For more information, see Close or delete an Advanced eDiscovery (Premium) case. |

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 84567 [When this will happen:] We will begin rolling this out starting in Teams meetings and then moving to Teams chat in February (previously mid-October) and expect to complete by late April (previously late February). The original "Forms" app will be retired from Teams meetings in March (previously January), and then will be retired from Teams chat in April (previously February). Once retired from meetings/chat the “Forms” app will only be available in the Teams channel tab to provide Survey capabilities. |

| MC375736 | (Updated) Basic Authentication Deprecation in Exchange Online – May 2022 Update | In about 150 days from today, we’re going to start to turn off Basic Auth for specific protocols in Exchange Online for those customers still using it. [Timeline and Scope] As we communicated last year in blog posts and MC286990, we will start to turn off Basic Authentication in our worldwide multi-tenant service on October 1, 2022. To clarify, we will start on October 1; this is not the date we turn it off for everyone. We will randomly select tenants, send 7-day warning Message Center posts (and post Service Health Dashboard notices), then we will turn off Basic Auth in the tenant. We expect to complete this by the end of this year. You should therefore be ready by October 1. We’re turning off Basic Auth for the following protocols: MAPI, RPC, Offline Address Book (OAB), Exchange Web Services (EWS), POP, IMAP, Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) and Remote PowerShell. We are not turning off SMTP AUTH. We have turned off SMTP AUTH for millions of tenants not using it, but if SMTP AUTH is enabled in your tenant, it’s because we see usage and so we won’t touch it. We do recommend you disable it at the tenant level and re-enable it only for those user accounts that still need it. [Exceptions and Per-Tenant Timing] There is no way to request an exception after October. Tenant selection is random, and we cannot put your tenant to the back of the queue to give you more time or change your settings on any specific date. If you want Basic Auth to be disabled at a time of your choosing (either now, or as soon as you are ready), use Authentication Policies. |
