Regaining Control Over Unmanaged GenAI Apps: New Microsoft Purview Enhancements in Edge

on
Many organizations are growing increasingly concerned about the widespread use of unsanctioned Generative AI (GenAI) tools. These apps, often accessed through unmanaged browsers, pose significant risks to data security and compliance. To help with this, Microsoft is now updating some features in  Microsoft Purview that will enhance policy enforcement for unmanaged cloud apps accessed via the Edge browser.  What’s Changing? Previously, enforcing Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Collection policies required manual creation of Edge configuration policies. These policies were often complex and needed to be scoped correctly to block unsupported browsers or apply protections. With this update, Microsoft automates much of that process: Collection Policies now apply directly within Edge without needing a separate blocking configuration.

Collaborative Notes, Intelligent recap and "Front Row AI" coming to Teams Meetings

This is one of many AI related updates we can expect for Teams. As roadmap items 95267 and 122554 starts rolling out, teams room systems with version 4.18 or newer, and with 4 cores or more will have this new feature (policy) turned on by default. With the use of AI, the background will be removed from incoming video-feeds. This will remove distracting elements, and at the same time create a unison look for the participants in the room. According to the message center this will become available late August or September.


Subscribers of the "Teams premium" license should by now have access to Intelligent Meeting Recap. The feature is currently available only to meetings recorded (and transcribed) in English. Other languages are expected later this fall. Also, the feature has been added to EU hosted tenants.


Meeting notes in Teams is getting more tightly integrated with the rest of the M365 tools and services as "Collaborative meeting notes" become available. The feature is a Loop component, and will also integrate with Planner and ToDo. Organizers can create notes and attach it to meeting invites, making it easier to prepare for all participants. And assigned tasks will sync into users ToDo list. This according to roadmap item 101509

You might also notice that all Tasks in Loop components will start syncing to planner and ToDo. This according to roadmap item 124928
