WHAT IS MICROSOFT AGENT 365?
Microsoft Agent 365 is a digital security guard and manager for a company’ s AI agents.
As businesses use more automated AI tools to handle daily tasks, it can be hard to keep track of them.
“ Agents operate at different autonomy levels and across different trust boundaries,” says Shiva Varma, Senior Director Analyst at Gartner.
“ When the same controls are applied indiscriminately, organisations encounter two common failure modes: over-restriction of simple agents, which slows delivery and drives shadow development, or under-restriction of more autonomous agents, which increases operational, security and compliance risk.”
Agent 365 acts as a centralised dashboard that treats these AI assistants like real employees by assigning each AI its own ID badge, tracking exactly what it is doing and ensuring it only looks at approved files.
By automatically spotting rogue AI tools and keeping data secure, it lets companies safely use AI without risking their private information.
