Microsoft Teams: Search for meetings

🚨 The Signal: Microsoft Teams now allows searching for meetings by name or participant, with direct actions like joining or viewing recaps. This enhances discoverability of meeting content and participant information, potentially increasing data exposure.

The Impact

All Teams users are affected, with a low security risk related to increased discoverability of meeting metadata and participant information.

• End users: Easier access to meeting details, potentially exposing past attendance.
• Security teams: Review data retention policies for meeting metadata.
• Compliance officers: Assess impact on data minimisation and privacy requirements.

The Action

1. Review existing Microsoft Teams data retention policies in Microsoft Purview for meeting-related data.
2. Communicate to users about the enhanced search capabilities and implications for meeting privacy.
3. Ensure sensitivity labels are correctly applied to meetings containing sensitive information.
