Microsoft Teams admin center: Expanded security and compliance info for more apps and agents [MC1162951]

Message ID: MC1162951

[Introduction]

To help you evaluate app trustworthiness more efficiently, the Teams Admin Center now surfaces security and compliance data—when available—for apps beyond Microsoft 365 certified or publisher-attested ones. Data from Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps (MDA) supports quicker assessments against organizational trust requirements.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 503102.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide): Rollout will begin in late October 2025 and is expected to complete by mid-November 2025.

[How this affects your organization:]

• Who is affected: Admins managing apps and agents in Microsoft Teams Admin Center.
• What will happen:
  • Admins will find additional security and compliance attributes—SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR—for apps that are not Microsoft 365 certified or publisher attested.
  • This data will appear in: Teams Admin Center > Teams apps > Manage apps > App details > Security and Compliance tab.
  • Data is sourced from Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps (MDA).
  • No changes to app enablement/blocking behavior.
  • No impact to user experience.
  • Feature is enabled by default.

[What you can do to prepare:]

• No action is required. This feature will be available automatically in the Teams Admin Center.
• If desired, you may:
  • Review app details in the Security and Compliance tab to inform internal app governance.
  • Communicate this update to helpdesk or security teams.
  • Update internal documentation if you track app compliance attributes.

Before rollout, we will update this post with new documentation.

[Compliance considerations:]

No compliance considerations identified, review as appropriate for your organization.
