Microsoft recently introduced manual incident creation in preview for Defender to help security teams investigate threats beyond automated detections. Analysts can now instantly track, manage, and correlate user reported threats and other security findings, even when no alert is generated automatically.
Microsoft has introduced two new service plans named ‘Entra Conditional Access for Agents’ and ‘Entra ID Protection for Agents’ under Microsoft 365 Agent and E7 licenses. Starting in July 2026, organizations using agent security capabilities must ensure they have the required Microsoft 365 Agent or E7 licenses to continue accessing these features without disruption. This blog explains the licensing update, its impact on organizations, and the steps admins should take to ensure AI agents remain protected.
Starting September 7, 2026, Microsoft Entra ID will require explicitly registered authentication methods for Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) verification. This blog dives into the details of this security update and the critical actions admins must take to prepare.
Until now, organizations needed an Office 365 Extra File Storage add-on for additional SharePoint storage, which required fixed-capacity purchases that often led to unused costs. To address this, Microsoft has introduced a pay-as-you-go billing model for SharePoint storage in Microsoft 365. This allows organizations to pay only for the additional storage they consume beyond their included quota. In this blog, we’ll explore Microsoft’s pay-as-you-go SharePoint storage model and how it can help optimize costs.
The introduction of Device Soft Delete in Microsoft Entra ID (Public Preview) brings a much-needed recovery layer for device management. Instead of being permanently deleted, devices now move into a soft-deleted state, allowing admins a 30-day window to restore them when needed.
Starting in early June 2026, Microsoft Outlook will support external email tags within inbox rules, allowing users to automatically organize and categorize external emails for improved prioritization.
