Details:

This feature will equip administrators evaluating apps and copilot extensions for deployment with extensive security and related certification data to help those admins more quickly evaluate that an app and/or extension complies with their tenant security requirements. Initially, the information provided will include results from individual M365 certification tests and evidence submitted by ISVs during Microsoft's audit of their app or copilot extension. Additionally, for non-certified apps, admins will receive details on data handling, security, and compliance as self-attested by the ISV.

User Experience Disruption
If admins rush to implement new apps based on incomplete evaluation of security certifications, users may face disruptions or degraded performance due to untested or incompatible applications.
