Security Copilot Agents Included with Microsoft 365 E5

🛡️ Microsoft is including Security Copilot agents in Microsoft 365 E5, embedding AI-driven assistants across Defender, Entra, Intune, and Purview to accelerate investigations and automate routine tasks. The rollout begins today for existing Security Copilot customers on E5 and will expand to all E5 tenants in the coming months with a 30-day notification. The announcement adds 12 Microsoft-built preview agents, 30+ partner agents, and support for customer-built agents to tailor workflows.

Ambient and Autonomous Security for the Agentic Era

🛡️ At Microsoft Ignite 2025, Microsoft set out an ambient, autonomous security approach for the emerging agentic era and announced a suite of tools to observe, secure, and govern AI agents and apps. The centerpiece is Microsoft Agent 365, a control plane providing an Entra-based registry, access controls, visualization, and integrations with Defender, Entra, and Purview to detect prompt-injection, prevent leakage, and enable auditing. Microsoft also expanded platform protections, enhanced Copilot data controls in Purview, and positioned Microsoft Sentinel and Security Copilot as agentic security pillars for detection and response.

Microsoft adds policy to remove preinstalled Store apps

🛠️ Microsoft now enables IT administrators to remove selected pre-installed Microsoft Store apps on Windows 11 Enterprise 25H2 and Education 25H2 devices using a new app management policy. The policy can be applied via CSP, Group Policy, or the Microsoft Intune settings catalog and is disabled by default until explicitly enabled by admins. Once enforced, targeted packages and associated local app data are deprovisioned and deleted from devices, removing the need for custom Windows images or brittle scripts.
