What is Microsoft Agent 365?
Microsoft Agent 365 provides a comprehensive management layer for organizations adopting AI agents, giving IT teams the ability to oversee and secure agents with the same tools used for traditional user management. Acting as a centralized registry, it identifies every agent—whether authenticated with Entra agent ID, manually registered, or detected as a shadow agent operating within the system. By leveraging Microsoft Defender, the platform brings enterprise-grade threat protection and security posture management to agentic workflows. Identity access for agents is governed through Microsoft Entra, ensuring every automated system interacts with corporate resources securely and responsibly. Purview adds another layer of governance, enabling teams to track, classify, protect, and audit the data that agents access or generate. Through integrations with Microsoft 365 and Power Platform, agents gain the ability to work inside Word, Excel, Power Apps, Power BI, and automated workflows. Work IQ connects agents to each organization’s unique knowledge graph, unlocking rich contextual reasoning for better task execution. IT administrators can join Microsoft’s Frontier early access program to try Agent 365 and enable it for selected users or the entire tenant. Microsoft’s broader ecosystem also supports deploying agents through Copilot, building them in Copilot Studio, and designing advanced systems in Foundry. Agent 365 is designed to help enterprises scale agent adoption confidently, securely, and efficiently as AI becomes a core part of daily operations.
