Microsoft Purview | Insider risk management- Insider risk management for risky agents

Microsoft Purview Insider Risk Management will extend to detect and manage risky AI agent activities in enterprise environments. Features include integration with Copilot Studio and Azure AI Foundry, AI-specific risk policies, and governance of agent workflows. Public preview starts December 2025; general availability by December 2026.
