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

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.
