Microsoft Agent 365
Microsoft Agent 365 is a control plane for AI agents across an organisation - observe, govern and secure. From the Microsoft 365 admin center, IT sees a registry of every agent, approves or rejects new ones, tracks runtime and risk, and (via Defender and Intune) maps each agent's identities, devices and reachable resources. Generally available since May 2026 at $15/user/month or in Microsoft 365 E7.

Our take
As companies sprout dozens of agents, Microsoft Agent 365 governs the sprawl: a registry, approval flow, runtime visibility and Defender/Intune security across Copilot Studio, Foundry and even AWS Bedrock and Google Cloud. GA since May 2026 and priced per user, it is most valuable if you are standardised on Microsoft 365. Less compelling if your stack lives elsewhere.
Best for
IT and security teams at Microsoft 365 organisations that need to discover, approve, monitor and secure a growing fleet of AI agents from a single control plane.
Pros
- Single registry and approval flow for all agents
- Runtime visibility: active agents, hours, risk signals
- Defender/Intune map agent identities, devices and access
- Cross-cloud: Copilot Studio, Foundry, AWS Bedrock, Google Cloud
Cons
- $15/user/month adds up across a large organisation
- Most valuable only if standardised on Microsoft 365
- Some security controls are still in public preview
How it compares
There is little direct competition for org-wide agent governance yet - the alternative is stitching together point tools or running ungoverned. Agent 365's advantage is native reach into Microsoft 365, Defender and Intune; its limit is that the reach assumes a Microsoft-centric stack.
Full review
Microsoft Agent 365, generally available since 1 May 2026, is a control plane for the AI agents now multiplying inside large organisations. Built on three pillars - observe, govern and secure - it gives IT and security teams a single place to manage the whole fleet. The overview dashboard in the Microsoft 365 admin center surfaces total registered agents, active users, runtime hours, connected platforms and emerging risk signals, while an approval and publication flow lets admins review an agent's capabilities, data access and compliance posture before it reaches users, curbing agent sprawl.
On the security side, integrations with Microsoft Defender and Intune map each agent's identities, the devices it runs on, the MCP servers it uses and the cloud resources it can reach, so teams can assess blast radius; some of these controls are arriving through public preview in mid-2026. It reaches across Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry and, via cross-cloud registry sync, AWS Bedrock and Google Cloud. Pricing is $15 per user per month or bundled in Microsoft 365 E7 - which adds up at scale, and lands best for organisations already standardised on Microsoft 365.
