Microsoft Teams: Share apps from app bar via right click
🚨 The Signal: Teams users can now share apps directly from the app bar via right-click. This change simplifies app sharing but requires security teams to ensure app governance policies are robust to prevent unintended data exposure.
The Impact
End users are affected by simplified app sharing, creating a low security risk if app governance is not robust.
- End users: Easier app sharing could lead to accidental oversharing.
- Security teams: Need to verify existing app governance policies are sufficient.
- Compliance officers: May need to review data sharing policies for Teams apps.
The Action
- Review existing Microsoft Teams app permission policies in the Teams admin center.
- Verify app setup policies and allowed apps to ensure only approved applications can be shared.
- Communicate best practices for app sharing to end-users, emphasizing data sensitivity.
