What are the benefits of using Microsoft Agent 365?

With Microsoft Agent 365 you manage all your AI agents across your organization at scale, regardless of where agents are built or acquired. Agents can be Microsoft-built such as Agent Builder, Copilot Studio, AI Foundry, or from non-Microsoft providers.

Organizations can move from agent experimentation to enterprise-scale operations with the following key capabilities:

• Observe

• Govern

• Secure

  

Observe

Observe is the first step as you can't control what you can't see. Agent 365 provides a complete real-time view of all agents in your organization, including their activity, usage patterns, connections, and impact. This visibility into agents in your environment helps you understand how agents are used, take actions quickly based on performance, behavior, and risk signals.

Govern

Govern establishes guardrails for agents and users. It helps onboard agents with IT oversight, and govern agent access to resources and data. Built-in compliance and data retention helps you be audit ready.

Secure

Securing agents just as any other asset in your environment is critical as agents need strong protection for:

• Protecting their identities and access

• Safeguarding data they use

• Defending them against threats and vulnerabilities

You can secure agent identities, control access to resources, prevent data oversharing and leaks, and defend against threats and vulnerabilities with enterprise-grade security solutions. This solution helps protect agents across your organization, regardless of where they were built or acquired. It also helps control the data agents access with enterprise-grade controls for identity, authentication, compliance, and threat protection.
