Microsoft Purview compliance portal: Insider Risk Management - Risky AI usage |
With this update, Insider risk management will help admins identify risky AI usage. We are adding new detections of intentional and unintentional insider risk activity on generative AI apps that can pose a risk to an organization. Activities will include risky prompts containing sensitive info or risky intent and sensitive responses containing sensitive info or is generated from sensitive files or sites. Coverage will span across Microsoft Copilots and 3P generative AI apps. These detections will also contribute to Adaptive Protection insider risk levels. Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management correlates various signals to identify potential malicious or inadvertent insider risks, such as IP theft, data leakage, and security violations. Insider Risk Management enables customers to create policies based on their own internal policies, governance, and organizational requirements. Built with privacy by design, users are pseudonymized by default, and role-based access controls and audit logs are in place to help ensure user-level privacy. |

Admins can reassign ownership of shared agents created within the organization through tools such as Copilot Studio or the Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit. Once reassigned, the new owner will gain full edit and delete permissions, along with access to any files uploaded by the previous owner. The former owner will lose all access, including read rights. |

Microsoft CoPilot (Microsoft 365): Microsoft Graph APIs for App & Agent Inventory and Details. |
Microsoft 365 will introduce new Graph API endpoints designed to empower IT administrators and developers with robust programmatic access to app and agent management across Copilot, Teams, Outlook, and other MetaOS hosts. Key Features: • Inventory API: Retrieve a comprehensive inventory of all apps and agents within your tenant, with advanced filtering by type (1P, 3P, LOB, Shared), host (Copilot, Outlook, Teams, Office), last updated date, and more. This enables bulk management, compliance checks, and streamlined governance for large organizations. • Details API: Access detailed metadata for any specific app or agent, including availability, deployment status, supported hosts, creator information, version, sensitivity, categories, and capabilities (such as Graph connectors, knowledge sources, and plugin actions). This supports auditing, lifecycle management, and integration into existing IT workflows. |
