Governing AI Agents with Microsoft Agent 365

Once teams start building agents, most organisations discover they have no inventory of what exists or what it can reach. This course covers the Agent 365 control plane end to end: agent identity, registry and lifecycle, security posture through Defender, data governance through Purview, and the licensing constraints that shape what is actually available to you.

Why this course

  • Agent sprawl is already happening: Low-code agent building means unmanaged agents appear faster than IT can track them.
  • Identity is the control point: Treating agents as first-class identities makes existing access policy apply to them.
  • Honest on licensing: Clear about which capabilities require which base licence before you plan around them.
  • Newest ground in the stack: Generally available since May 2026 and taught almost nowhere else.

Training objectives

  • Explain the observe, govern and secure model and what sits under each pillar
  • Establish agent identity and apply access policy through Entra Agent ID
  • Operate the agent registry and agent map to inventory what exists
  • Assess agent security posture and remediate excessive permissions
  • Apply Purview data governance, observability and communication compliance to agents
  • Design an approval and onboarding workflow using policy templates
  • Determine which capabilities your licensing actually entitles you to
  • Define an operating model covering ownership, review and retirement

Who will benefit

  • Security architects and CISO-office teams
  • Microsoft 365 and Entra administrators
  • Compliance, risk and data governance leads
  • Platform owners responsible for agent programmes
