| (Updated) Entra ID: Upcoming changes to support passkey profiles in the authentication methods policy (preview)Category:Microsoft EntraNummer:MC1097225Status:planForChange | Updated October 15, 2025: We have updated the rollout timelines below. Thank you for your patience. In November 2025, we will expand the passkey (FIDO2) authentication methods policy in Microsoft Entra ID to support passkey profiles in public preview. This update will enable granular, group-based control over passkey configurations and introduce new API schema changes. [When this will happen:] Public Preview (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out early November 2025 and expect to complete by early December 2025. Public Preview (GCC, GCC High, DoD): We will begin rolling out mid-November 2025 and expect to complete by mid-December 2025. [How this will affect your organization:] After this rollout, you’ll be able to apply different passkey configurations per user group. For example, you will be able to:
Important: If your organization modifies the passkey policy via the Microsoft Azure or Entra portal during preview, the new schema will take effect. If you continue using Graph API or third-party tools to modify the policy, the schema will not change until General Availability. These new settings will be available at Microsoft 365 admin center > Home > Security > Authentication methods > Passkey (FIDO2) settings:
As part of this update in November 2025, we will start accepting any WebAuthn-compliant security key or passkey provider when Enforce attestation is disabled. This will allow a wider range of security keys and passkey providers to be accepted for registration and authentication in Microsoft Entra ID. To compare this upcoming update with the current behavior, refer to Microsoft Entra ID attestation for FIDO2 security key vendors [What you need to do to prepare:] This rollout will happen automatically by the specified dates with no admin action required before the rollout. You may want to review your current passkey configuration, notify your admins about this change, and update internal documentation.

| Microsoft Teams trials in the EEA duration limit updatesCategory:Microsoft TeamsNummer:MC1172529Status:stayInformed | Effective November 1st 2025, Microsoft Teams trials in the European Economic Area (EEA) will be limited to a maximum of 31 days. Why is this needed? In preparation for upcoming regulatory changes and to ensure compliance with evolving global standards, Microsoft will no longer support Teams trial periods longer than 31 days in the EEA. This change aligns with our commitment to transparency and simplified licensing across Microsoft 365. Implementation timelines

| Protect your Windows 10 devices after Microsoft support endsCategory:Microsoft Defender XDRNummer:MC1172531Status:planForChange | As of October 14, 2025, Microsoft is officially ending support for Windows 10. This means that Windows 10 devices will no longer receive security or feature updates, nor technical support from Microsoft. While these devices will continue to operate, the lack of regular security updates increases their vulnerability to cyber threats. Microsoft Defender will continue to provide detection and protection capabilities to the extent possible on Windows 10 and other legacy systems. Keep in mind that security solutions on legacy systems are inherently less secure and may not be able to receive all new features, so please review the important actions you can take. Actions you can take:

| Dynamics 365 Customer Insights – Data – Filter rows from source data for better processingCategory:Dynamics 365 AppsNummer:MC1173012Status:stayInformed | We are announcing the ability to filter out unwanted rows from your source data directly in Dynamics 365 Customer Insights – Data. This feature reached general availability on October 3, 2025. How does this affect me? You can improve the quality of your unified customer profiles and insights by filtering out unwanted rows from your source data directly. You don’t need to filter out unwanted data in downstream processes, and you can apply row filters directly to any source table you ingest, reducing the data scope to just what you need. Key benefits include:

| Secure Boot certificate deployment guide and toolsCategory:WindowsNummer:MC1173103Status:preventOrFixIssue | Use the newly published guide and tools to start updating your organization’s expiring Secure Boot certificates. As the 2011 certificate authorities (CAs) start expiring in June 2026, 2023 CAs are required. Updated CAs allow Secure Boot to continue preventing malware early in the startup sequence. New resources are available for you to start monitoring, deploying, and troubleshooting Secure Boot CAs. These include the deployment playbook, new registry keys, Windows Event Log, and Windows Configuration System (WinCS) APIs. When will this happen:
How this will affect your organization: Devices manufactured before 2012 and those that don’t already have new certificates need to be updated with the 2023 CAs. We recommend taking measures well before the 2011 CAs start expiring. What you need to do to prepare: If your organization sends diagnostic data and lets Microsoft manage your updates, your devices will automatically get updated CAs with the monthly Windows updates. You can also opt in to let Microsoft determine high-confidence devices that will get these CAs first. If you prefer to deploy these CAs yourself, follow the deployment playbook to monitor, deploy, and troubleshoot Secure Boot updates. You can use new registry keys, Windows Event Log, and WinCS to do so. Additional information:
