Microsoft has pushed a meaningful new enforcement point into AI agent workflows: Copilot Studio now supports near‑real‑time runtime monitoring that lets organizations route an agent’s planned actions to an external policy engine — such as Microsoft Defender, a third‑party XDR, or a custom...
Microsoft has added a near‑real‑time enforcement layer to Copilot Studio that lets security teams intercept, evaluate and — when necessary — block the actions autonomous agents plan to take as they run, bringing step‑level policy decisioning into the live execution loop for Power Platform...

Microsoft has moved a critical enforcement point for autonomous workflows from design-time checks and post‑hoc logging into the live execution path: Copilot Studio now supports near‑real‑time runtime security controls that let organizations route an agent’s planned actions to external monitors...
Microsoft’s Copilot Studio has added a near‑real‑time security control that routes an agent’s planned actions through external monitors—allowing organizations to approve or block tool calls and actions while an AI agent runs—and the capability is now available in public preview for Power...
Microsoft’s Copilot Studio has added a near‑real‑time monitoring and control layer for AI agents, letting enterprises intercept, evaluate and — when necessary — block agent actions as they execute, and giving security teams a new way to enforce policies at runtime without sacrificing agent...
Microsoft’s Copilot Studio has moved from built‑in guardrails to active, near‑real‑time intervention: organizations can now route an agent’s planned actions to external monitors that approve or block those actions while the agent is executing, enabling step‑level enforcement that ties existing...
Zenity’s expanded partnership with Microsoft plugs real-time, inline security directly into Microsoft Copilot Studio agents — a move that promises to make agentic AI safer for widespread enterprise use while raising new operational and architectural questions for security teams. The...
Microsoft has quietly but meaningfully shifted the balance of power between autonomous AI agents and enterprise defenders: Copilot Studio now supports near‑real‑time runtime security controls that let organizations route an agent’s planned actions through external monitors (Microsoft Defender...
Microsoft is putting a second line of defense around AI agents: Copilot Studio now supports advanced near‑real‑time protection during agent runtime, a public‑preview capability that lets organizations route an agent’s planned actions through external monitoring systems — including Microsoft...
Google and Microsoft have built two very different — and increasingly capable — AI companions, and choosing between Gemini and Copilot now means weighing ecosystem fit, multimodal power, privacy defaults, and pricing structure rather than just raw “intelligence.” The battlefield has shifted from...

Microsoft appears to be quietly reworking how it charges businesses for Copilot — moving role-based Copilots for Sales, Service, and Finance into the core Microsoft 365 Copilot offering, reorganizing teams around an “agent-native” strategy, and shifting how custom agents are metered. If...
The City of Montréal has quietly turned a classic municipal pain point—finding timely information on services, schedules and rules—into a 24/7 conversational surface by deploying a virtual agent built with Microsoft Copilot Studio that now answers citizen questions across the city’s public...

Microsoft’s Copilot for Microsoft 365 was supposed to make AI agents safer to run at enterprise scale; instead, recent reports show a control-plane failure that left some agents discoverable and installable despite tenant-level policy locks—forcing administrators into time-consuming, per-agent...
Microsoft’s Copilot Agent ecosystem is facing a governance and enforcement crisis: multiple independent reports show that tenant-level policies intended to block agent availability are not being reliably enforced, Microsoft’s Copilot audit telemetry has contained reproducible blind spots, and...
OpenAI’s GPT‑5 has landed inside Microsoft’s Copilot family, but the change feels more like a careful upgrade than a dramatic reinvention — a set of real-world refinements that tilt Copilot toward deeper reasoning, longer context, and smarter routing rather than a radical, immediately...
