Microsoft Viva: Engage Community feed improvements

🚨 The Signal: Viva Engage community feeds now default to a more curated view, potentially hiding some messages. This change impacts information visibility and could affect incident response or compliance monitoring if critical communications are missed.

The Impact

All Viva Engage users are affected, with a low security risk related to potential information oversight.

  • End-users: May miss important announcements or security advisories if not actively seeking all messages.
  • Security Teams: Could face delays in incident response if critical information is not broadly visible.
  • Compliance Teams: May have challenges demonstrating full communication visibility for audit purposes.

The Action

  1. Communicate to users that Viva Engage feeds now default to a curated view.
  2. Advise users on how to adjust their feed settings to view all community messages.
  3. Review existing communication policies to ensure critical security information is not solely reliant on Viva Engage community feeds.
