Message ID: MC1047250

Coming soon: New security features for Microsoft Loop in Microsoft Teams for organizations that have enabled sensitivity labels (also known as Microsoft Information Protection or MIP).

Before this rollout, Microsoft Loop supports users or admins adding file-level sensitivity labels on all .loop files (including Loop components, Loop pages, and Microsoft Copilot Pages) in the Loop app (on the web and for iOS/Android) and new Microsoft Outlook for Windows and Outlook for the web, classic Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, Outlook on Android and iOS.

Copilot Pages is included in Microsoft 365 licenses.

After this rollout, we will support file-level sensitivity labels in Loop components and collaborative meeting notes in Teams for Windows desktop, Teams for Mac desktop, Teams for the web, and Teams for iOS/Android.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in early April 2025 and expect to complete by mid-May 2025.

[How this will affect your organization:]

If your tenant has sensitivity labels configured at the item-level for Files, you or your users will be able to apply these labels to all Loop files (including Loop components, Loop pages, and Copilot Pages). If your tenant has sensitivity labels enabled for Groups & sites, you or your users will be able to apply these labels and policies to your Loop workspaces:

    The upcoming rollout of sensitivity labels for Microsoft Loop components and collaborative meeting notes in Microsoft Teams is set to bring about some significant changes for both admins and users. This update, slated for early April 2025, is all about enhancing security and ensuring that sensitive information is handled with the utmost care.

    For admins, the good news is that there’s no immediate action required. If your organization already has sensitivity labels configured, this rollout will seamlessly integrate into your existing setup. It’s like getting an upgrade without having to lift a finger! However, it’s wise to review your current configurations and perhaps give your users a heads-up about these changes. After all, a little communication can go a long way in ensuring everyone is on the same page.

    Users will benefit from the ability to apply sensitivity labels directly to Loop files, including Loop components and meeting notes, right within Teams. This means more control over how information is categorized and shared, which is especially important in today’s data-driven world. Imagine being able to label your meeting notes as “Confidential” while also having a laugh about that one time someone accidentally shared a cat meme in a serious discussion—it’s all about balance!

    As for the impact of these changes, I’d say it’s quite substantial. The added layer of security not only protects sensitive information but also fosters a culture of responsibility within organizations. It encourages users to think critically about the information they share and how it’s labeled.

    So, what do you think about these upcoming changes? Are you excited about the added security, or do you have concerns? Feel free to share your thoughts below! And for more insights on this topic, don’t forget to check out other posts on mwpro.co.uk. Let’s keep the conversation going!
