Overview Microsoft Agent 365 is the control plane for AI agents in the enterprise — giving organizations the ability to observe, govern, and secure the rapidly growing number of agents at work across their business. Built into the Microsoft 365 admin center and the same trusted infrastructure as Microsoft Entra, Microsoft Purview, and Microsoft Defender, Agent 365 treats agents as first-class digital identities: discoverable in a centralized registry, managed across their lifecycle, and protected with enterprise-grade identity, data protection, and threat defense — regardless of which tools, frameworks, or models were used to build them.
