Assessment Reasoning
The update introduces Entra-based authentication for Microsoft Copilot Studio with delegated and service-to-service options, improving security and integration. This is mainly a configuration and governance opportunity rather than a mandatory change. User experience remains largely unaffected, and urgency is low as the feature is additive and requires no immediate action.
