Govern every AI agent running across your organization with Agent 365. Track agents from Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Salesforce in one registry, sync in agents you're already running on AWS Bedrock, Google Cloud, Databricks Genie, and Anthropic Claude, and lock down shadow AI with default blocks and Execution Container isolation. Agent 365 inspects your environment for every agent Microsoft and partners have registered, then layers control on top. Reusable security policy templates apply Conditional Access, Access Packages, and Custom Security Attributes the moment you approve an agent, Tools governance blocks risky MCP servers and connectors org wide, and the Adoption Dashboard breaks down usage by group, job function, and license type for every manager in your org. Jeremy Chapman (@DeployJeremy) Microsoft 365 Director, shares how to bring every agent in your organization under one governed registry, and how to shut down shadow AI before it ever compromises your environment. 👥 Who it's for: IT admins, security engineers, and identity teams governing AI agents across Microsoft 365, Entra, Purview, Defender, and Intune; solution architects designing agent access, tools, and security policy at scale; developers and DevOps teams building and registering agents and custom MCP servers in Copilot Studio, Agent Builder, and Foundry; and team leads, finance, and IT leaders tracking agent adoption, usage, and spend across the organization. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 Why you need an AI agent control plane 02:00 See every AI agent across your environment with the unified agent registry 02:50 Track local AI activity with OpenTelemetry and the Agent Map 03:16 Sync AI agents from AWS Bedrock, Google Cloud, Databricks and Claude with Registry Sync 03:55 Approve, publish and block AI agents across your organization 04:42 Manage MCP servers, plugins and connectors with Tools governance 05:18 Apply reusable security policy templates across Entra, Purview, Defender and Intune 06:06 Block shadow AI and isolate local agents with Microsoft Execution Containers 06:23 Track agent adoption and usage with the Agent 365 dashboard 07:06 Set spending limits and cost alerts for AI agents 08:02 Monitor AI agent costs and buy prepaid credits 09:07 Get started with Agent 365 today Agent 365 gives you one place to govern every AI agent running across your organization, no matter where it was built or who owns it. In this demo, the unified agent registry surfaces agents from Microsoft Foundry, Copilot Studio, Agent Builder, and SharePoint, alongside agents from Amazon, Google, and Salesforce, each with its identity, owner, permissions, and usage history attached. Local AI running on managed devices shows up too, logged through standardized OpenTelemetry and mapped visually in the Agent Map so you can trace connections between agents, people, data, and tools. Registry Sync pulls in agents you're already running on AWS Bedrock, Google Cloud, Databricks Genie, and Anthropic Claude with nothing more than a connection string, and from the same registry you approve agents for broader use, publish or pin them to specific groups, automate ownership handoffs when an employee leaves, and block any agent you don't want in production. From there, Agent 365 puts you in control of what agents can touch and how they're secured. The Tools view gives you one place to see every MCP server, plugin, and connector your agents rely on, block the risky ones, and approve or reject new tool requests as they come in. Reusable security policy templates apply Conditional Access, Access Packages, and Custom Security Attributes the moment you approve an agent, drawing on native signals from Microsoft Entra, Purview, Defender, and Intune so your identity, data security, SecOps, and device teams enforce the same controls. Shadow AI running as unsanctioned local agents gets blocked by default through Intune policy and isolated from user sessions with Microsoft Execution Containers. Team leads and managers track adoption and usage in the Agent 365 Dashboard, filtered by group, organization, job function, or license type. IT and finance teams set monthly spending limits, per user budget caps, and weekly usage alerts for Copilot Cowork and the Work IQ API, and can pre purchase discounted credits to keep spend predictable. 🔗 Related links: ► Get started at https://aka.ms/agent365 ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
