Microsoft Viva: Live event using Teams Town hall in Viva Engage

🚨 The Signal: Viva Engage now supports Teams Town Hall for live events, enabling higher quality broadcasts. This expands the attack surface for live event content and requires review of existing Teams live event policies.

The Impact

Admins and Security Teams are affected by new live event capabilities that could introduce unmoderated content risks.

• Community Admins: New production tools require understanding content moderation policies.
• Security Teams: Expanded live event capabilities increase potential for unapproved content.
• Compliance Officers: Review existing policies for live event content and data retention.
• End Users: May be exposed to a wider range of broadcast content, requiring vigilance.

The Action

1. Review existing Microsoft Teams live event policies for Town Hall settings.
2. Assess Viva Engage community admin roles and permissions for live event creation.
3. Update content moderation guidelines for live broadcasts originating from Viva Engage.
4. Communicate new live event capabilities and associated policies to community admins.
