With the kickoff of InfoSec Europe, we shared an update of our recent enhancements to Office 365 threat protection services. Today, we discuss the significant enrichment to the end user experience in Office 365. By empowering end users to make better decisions which help drive proactive protection, we offer an unique, powerful, and potentially best in class solution. The features we showcase today provide end users greater information, enabling better decision making and ultimately greater security.
Introducing Native Link Rendering
‘Native Link Rendering’ is now available for customers using Office Web Application (OWA). Soon the feature will also be available for the Outlook client. ‘Native Link Rendering’ exposes the native link for a user to view, though we still wrap the link in the back end for analysis. Importantly, no other advanced security solution can provide this powerful and crucial feature. Native Link Rendering has been a top request from customers because it supports end user education by providing visibility to the original view of an URL. Office 365 ATP’s Safe Links ‘time-of-click-protection’ protects users from clicking through to a malicious site. To do so, Safe Links wraps the link at the time of click, obfuscating the native URL which reduces users’ ability to learn what a potentially malicious URL may look like. Customers educating end users on indicators of a malicious link, require the display of native links since wrapped links prevent the ability to train users. ‘Native Link Rendering’ lets users see the original link. It is an unique and critical feature serving to empower our customer’s users to become more aware, sophisticated, and proactive at preventing themselves from being compromised by malicious links. Microsoft believes education and awareness is a foundational element for holistic security and Native Link Rendering serves to both educate and raise user awareness on cyberthreats.

Enhanced Safe Links Warning Pages
The end user experience is further enhanced with new Safe Links warning pages. The new warning pages provide granular details on why a warning is generated. The pages range from notifying the user that a link is still being scanned, to a generic error warning.
Figure 2. Summary of New Safe Links Warning Pages
With this greater detail, users have better information on why a link was flagged, facilitating user understanding of when and why threats are blocked. Ultimately, a more informed user base can make better decisions and can better protect themselves from threats. We are excited to help your end users heighten their awareness and improve on their knowledge of potential threats.

![Admins- welcome to the Microsoft 365 admin center]()
We built Microsoft 365- a complete IT solution including Office 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security- to enable organizations to create and work together securely. In that same spirit, our goal is to offer a unified toolset to manage and protect those organizations. In March, we announced the Microsoft 365 admin center as your central location for managing and monitoring applications, services, data, devices, and users across your Microsoft 365 deployment.
Today, we are expanding this integrated and intuitive admin experience to users of Office 365. Users of both Office 365 and Microsoft 365 will now have access to the new Microsoft 365 admin center. For Office 365 admins, this means a simpler experience that easily integrates with you other Microsoft services – all without giving up capabilities or control.
What to expect
If you’ve used the Office 365 admin center before, the experience will feel very similar. The navigation is the same, and you’ll have the same granularity of control over your environment. There will be no change to your Office 365 subscription or billing. As you add new apps and services like device management, those will light up in your left navigation pane. Most importantly, you’ll receive all the latest admin center updates and features as they become available.
New URL, same great experience
To access your new admin center experience, point your web browser to admin.microsoft.com. This is your new front door for managing and monitoring all your Office 365 and Microsoft 365 services. Your new admin center still includes links to all your specialty admin tools for services like OneDrive and SharePoint conveniently linked in the left navigation pane. If you’ve previously created bookmarks for the Office 365 admin center or any of the specialty admin centers, those will continue to work.
Over the next few weeks, we will be updating the admin center links across Office 365 to use the new admin.microsoft.com address.
More to come
In the coming months, we’ll continue to evolve the Microsoft 365 admin center to provide a consistent and intuitive experience across all your Microsoft 365 products. As more information becomes available, we’ll post it here on Microsoft Tech Communities. In the meantime, join the conversation on the Microsoft 365 Tech Communities forums and Twitter.
Investigative Tools to Empower Stronger Threat Protection
We launched Office 365 Threat Intelligence to help organization’s become more secure by enhancing admin capabilities which offer greater visibility, deeper insights, and powerful executable actions (check out the recent webinar overviewing the service). Today we’re excited to announce ‘Threat Trackers’ for Office 365 Threat Intelligence, enabling efficient monitoring and management of threat investigations to help admins quickly remediate and respond to threats. The feature can be found under ‘Threat Management’ in the Security and Compliance Center. Table 1 summarizes the four available ‘Threat tracker’ categories.
Table 1. The different tracker categories available in Office 365 Threat Intelligence Threat Trackers view
Threat Tracker Categories
Noteworthy campaigns are classified, as well known and important global threats. Office 365 Threat Intelligence pre-builds Noteworthy Campaign monitors, enabling admins to quickly review the impact of these threats, assessing both their volume and frequency. This automated monitoring allows admins speedy remediation from these threats. Noteworthy Campaign monitors update hourly, showing the latest impact of these threats to your organization. Click ‘Explore’ if you want to see the detailed events detected by the filter.
The Trending Campaigns view provides dynamic assessments of email threats impacting your organization’s Office 365 environment. This view shows tenant level malware trends, identifying malware families on the rise, flat, or declining, giving admins greater insight into which threats require further attention. New threats not seen recently in your organization will appear at the top of the page (sorted by trend). Trending Campaigns also offers a comparative view on how a threat impacts your organization versus others. If an organization’s targeting percentage is >10%, it indicates that it is being specifically targeted by the attack. Admins can further investigate targeted and trending attacks in Explorer, where actions such as deleting or moving the malware to junk can be taken. Targeted attacks are typically short-lived, so these types of attacks in the Trending Campaigns view may drop out of the view within a few days.
Figure 1. The Trending Campaigns view in Office 365 Threat Intelligence Threat trackers
While the campaign views enable tracking and quick assessment of threats, queries are powerful investigative views allowing deeper understanding of threats, aiding admins to make data driven security updates. Queries can be accessed from either campaign view by clicking on ‘Explorer’ which displays that tracked threat campaign. Saved Queries provides a view into all Explorer searches saved as queries. Admins can monitor malware and phish events with the scope (number of emails included in an incident) defined and saved from Explorer. Saved queries are useful for checking items frequently. To create more saved queries, go to the Explorer, add filters to view specific sets of events, then select ‘Save query’ (button at top of page).
Figure 2. Opened Explorer page on tracked threat campaign. The threat campaign can be saved as query from the Explorer
Tracked queries provide regular assessments of malware, phish, and other events with the scope defined from Threat Explorer. Tracked queries help monitor items frequently, providing reports, allowing quick and in-depth evaluation of threats or groups. A limited number of tracked queries are available for each organization. Admins can choose to convert saved queries and begin tracking them using the edit option for that query.
These ‘Threat Trackers’ enrich the admin experience, providing a powerful new tool for monitoring and managing, investigations, which ultimately enables quick response to threats. With this added feature, Office 365 Threat Intelligence provides admins to more efficiently and easily secure their organization.

Today is the enforcement date of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which establishes an important milestone for individual privacy rights. Microsoft has been a strong supporter of the GDPR since it was first proposed in 2012. The GDPR sets a strong standard for privacy because it puts people in control of their own data.
In this post, we summarize the resources on the Service Trust Portal that can help you with GDPR readiness when using Microsoft Cloud services.
Service Trust Portal – Get in-depth information to help you meet GDPR obligations
The Privacy area on Service Trust Portal provides GDPR resources across Microsoft Cloud services, including Office 365, Azure, Dynamics 365, Windows, and Professional Services. You can find 3 primary topics under the Privacy tab:
- Data Subject Requests (DSRs): get information about how specific Microsoft Cloud services enable you to discover, access, rectify, restrict, delete, and export personal data; connect you to the DSRs tools Microsoft builds to help you respond to DSRs (e.g. Data Log Export for responding to telemetry log DSRs).
- Data breach notification: find information about how Microsoft detects and responds to personal data breaches, and how you can set up your privacy contact to receive breach notifications from Microsoft in the event of personal data breach.
- Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs): learn about Microsoft’s and your responsibilities for DPIA compliance, and get information provided by Microsoft that can support you to create your own DPIAs.
Visit it today at https://aka.ms/GDPRGetStarted and learn more about how to use Service Trust Portal to plan and implement GDPR controls in this video:
